Bagging Grapes. — This pays for home use when you want the 

 best you can get. Bagged bunches are much finer, ripen more even- 

 ly, have more bloom and are better in every way, but possibly a few 

 days later in ripening. Thin skinned varieties, especially, like Con- 

 cord, are very much improved. Buy two-pound manilla bags such 

 as grocers use. These bags last two years and cost only a few cents 

 a hundred. A paper of pins are also required. Slip the bag over 

 the bunch, make a double fold of the top and stick a pin through, 

 and there you are until the bunches are ripe. The grapes should be 

 bagged when they are about the size of small shot, but later will do, 

 although the larger they are the more trouble they are to bag.
