AMBITION SCARED TOO HIGH
Pioneer Grape Grower Unfortunately
Was Not Satisfied With First
Really Excellent Results.

A hundred years ago DR.. @. W.
Grant bought a small, rock-ribbed
island in the B1dson river nearly op.
posite Peekskill. There was general
laugh at what people declared to be
his folly, as the island was so barren
and worthless that It did not seem pos.
sible for anything to grow there. Doc.
tor Grant, however, had ideas Of his
own, and he began a growth of grapes
Of the then new variety. the Delaware.
In a very short time the island was
known to grape growers all over the
country. and Doctor Grant was de.
clared to have done more for grape
culture than any other man in Amer.
lea.
The great business enjoyed by the
physician turned his head, and he be.
gan to work toward a scheme that
would turn the island into a paradise
Of growing flowers, especially mag.
nolias and rhododendrons, and he
hoped to give seed or cuttings to every
home in America. The result Of his
attempts was bankruptcy, and he left
the island, which soon went back to
rock and barren soil.
