Grapes for this season seem to be
plentiful, nearly as large and the
flavor quite as good or even little
better than in the past. After the
hot weather the first of the season the
chances for a good crop appeared
poor. The grapes arriving were
small and of inferior flavor, but the
supply now coming from New York is
fully up to the standard. The mar
ket is well supplied just now and the
fruit is cheap, too.
