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

A hundred years ago Or. c. w.
Grant bought a small. rock-ribbed
island I'm the Hudson river nearly OPP
posite Peekskill. There was a general
laugh at what people declared 10 be
bis folly. as the island was so barren
and worthless that IL did not seem pos
sible for anything TO grow there. DR..
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 10 grape growers all over the
country, and Doctor Grant was de-
clared 10 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 10 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 10
rock and barren soil.
