= UN DUST RY +GOOSE BE RE... 
A Gooseberry possessing desirable qualities for table and market has long been a desidera- 
tum. The foreign varieties, wherever tried, have either mildewed more or less, or they have 
made an unsatisfactory growth. Hence a large, handsome sort of good quality has been much 
sought after. Although a foreign sort, it has done admirably for many seasons, being a vigor- 
ous grower and an immense yielder, and showing no signs of mildew. We confidently recom- 
mend it for the garden and market, being unequaled for size, flavor, productiveness and 
vigorous growth. Color, dark red. 25c. each, $2.50 per doz., $15.00 per 100.

DIRECTIONS FOR PLANTING. 
Plant in rows six feet apart and eight feet apart inthe row. Dig 
holes sufficiently large to amply accommodate the roots of the 
vine and use only fine surface soil in filling in, mixing with it a lit- 
tle ground bone. Cut back one-year vines to two eyes, placing the 
lower one beneath the surface; cut back two-year vines to three or 
four eyes, putting two or three eyes below the surface. Spread the 
roots out, after trimming them; place the stock of the vine at one 
side of the hole and fill up with fine soil, pressing down firmly with 
the feet. Set a stake by the side of the stock, to which the vine 
should be kept tied, which will be all the support needed for two 
years. Keep old wood trimmed off, growing fruit on new eanes. 
Any manner of pruning that will admit the sun and air to the fruit 
will ensure a crop. 
MOORE’S “‘DIHMOND’” GRAPE. 
This isthe product of a cross between that grand old variety, 
‘«Concord,” and the highly esteemed ‘‘Iona,” combining in one 
kind the two qualities most desired in a grape, viz., vigor and 
hardiness of vine with high quality of fruit. In vigor of growth, 
color and texture of foliage, with hardiness of vine, it is the equal 
of its parent, ‘*Concord,”? while in quality the fruit is equal to 
many of our hothouse grapes. It is among the earliest and ripens 
from two to four weeks ahead of ‘‘Coneord.” Price, 2-year-old 
vines, from original stock, 75c. each; 1-year-old vines, 50c. each.

“ BRIGHYON ” GRAPE. 
We illustrated this in eolors on the back cover of our 
catalogue in 1889. It still remains the best grape in its 
color for table use; in fact, too much cannot be said in 
praise of this as to quality and other properties. In col- 
or, form and size of both bunch and berry, it resembles 
Catawba, but ripens early—with the Delaware. Vine a 
free grower and productive. Price, 2-year vines, 30c. 
each, $3.00 per doz. 
‘EATON *? GRAPE. 
This promising new Grape is similar in foliage to Con- 
cord, and in growth, health, hardiness and quality is in every 
respect its equal, while in size of bunch and berry it is 
much larger and more attractive in appearance. Leaf 
large, thick, leathery, covered on the under side with a 
thick brownish yellow down. Bunch large, sometimes 
twelve to twenty-five ounces, compact, double-shoul- 
dered; berries very large, many one inch in diameter, 
round, black, covered with heavy blue bloom; adheres 
| firmly to the stem; skin thin but tough, pulp tender, 
| separating freely from the seeds and dissolving easily in the 
| mouth. Very juicy; ripens with Concord or a little earlier. Price,
