Bunches rather loose, of medium size; "berries medium; color light amber, with small dark specks, covered with thin, white bloom. Rather pulpy. Ripens with the Catawba. Not worth planting here; unhealthy and feeble. 36 BUSHBEEGICATALOGUE. AUTUCHON. Autucbon. (Arnold's Hybrid No. 5. ) A Seedling of Clinton, crossed with Golden Chas- selas. Leaves dark green, very deep lobed and sharp pointed serratures; the unripe wood is very dark purple, nearly black. Bunches very long, not heavily shouldered,... rather loose ; ber- ries medium size, round, white (green), with a moderately firm, but readily melting flesh, and an agreeable, sprightly flavor, resembling the White Chasselas. Skin thin, without astrin- gency. Ripens with the Delaware. Mr. Sam. Miller, the originator of the Martha, bestowed the following high encomium upon the new grape in 1869 : " I have always considered Martha the best white native grape, but since seeing and tasting the Autuchon, I haul down my colors, //it will ripen like this in Canada, and if it improves by coming here like Rogers' and other Northern grapes, then it seems to me, we have all that can be desired.
