Grapes a Success.

dence from headquarters ger tleman

Bailey, of Orlando, who replied in man.
ner to set all doubts at rest. They stated
that May s, 1888, they set out 1, 800
vines. OF these they allowed 900 to fruit,
and in June, 1889, they took 1900,
or two pounds to the vine, about thirteen
months from setting. For these they re-
ceived thirty cents per pound. In two
years the vines all averaged five pounds
to the vine. OF these they had forty
three clusters averaging over eight ounces
each. These statements ought to be econ
vincing to any one. The grapes were Of
the white Niagara variety, and be it re-
membered this statement letter came di-
rect from he firm who raised the grapes.
Mr.. E. G. Terry, who is doing SO much
to develop the grape business in st.
Johns county, raises grapes largely in
New York State, both in hot houses and
in the open air. Recently he ordered
some choice grapes shipped from his hot
house to his place in q large basket.
These were on the way just one week, but
