No place in the country is better situated for 

 the growing of vigorous grape vine stock than 

 is the Del- Mar- Va Peninsula. The long grow- 

 ing season produces an abundance of healthy 

 roots and an extra strong body to the young 

 plants. We will appreciate your order this year, 

 no matter if for a single plant or enough to set 

 a vineyard : assuring you of the best quality 

 money can buy. 



Plant Grape Vines for Pleasure 

 and Profit 



No home planting is complete without Grape 

 Vines; and lots of ready cash can be made on 

 the farm by planting a thousand vines in some 

 out-of-the-way place that is not paying ex- 

 penses. Just try it. The Grape is easily grown 

 and produces large returns for the time and 

 effort expended. 



A WORD ABOUT VARIETIES

 market, and as there are good, better and best, 

 we are trying to grow and list the best. Varie-

 profitable results.

 to wait. Color blue, bunches very compact, sec-

 in America. (See inside back cover page for 

 Concord bearing-age vines.)
