The Grape for Everybody Everywhere 



A complete union of the grand old Catawba and the ever pop- 

 ular Concord. 



This grape is a cross between the Catawba and Concord, 

 scientifically made and possesses the merits of both varieties with 

 the defects of neither. 



Fifty years ago the Catawba was universally popular ; it is still 

 the standard of excellence, in quality, among hardy grapes ; but 

 having become enfeebled with the infirmities of old age, it can no 

 longer be grown successfully, except in favored locations, by reason 

 of its foliage being subject to downy-mildew and the fruit to black- 

 rot. It also ripens quite late — too late for most regions. 



Concord, as is well known, is unexcelled in productiveness, in 

 vigor and hardiness of vine and in freedom from disease of foliage. 

 The good properties of Catawba-Concord are : 



1 . High quality — equalling in tenderness of pulp, sweet luscious flavor 

 and aroma the Catawba with added sweetness and juiciness. 



"7 2. Rich sparkling light red ; with abundant bloom. 



^ 3. Bunch large and compact — just like the Catawba. 



4. Berry medium to large and nearly round — exactly like the Concord. 



' J 5. Season early; a little in advance of Concord. 



6. Skin thin and tough; mjch like Catawba but thinner. 



7. Berry adheres firmly to bunch : hence, 



8. A superior shipper and keeper. 



> 9. Exempt from both black-rot and brown-rot ; and all other diseases. 



10. Vine of extreme vigor — a stronger grower than the Concord — and 

 of ironclad hardihood. 



11. A heavy annual yielder — as prolific as Concord. 



I 12. Foliage similar to Concord and of like freedom from mildew. 

 1 3. Entirely without foxiness in odor or flavor. 



Catawba-Concord has been given ten years of the severest 

 kind of test — never petted— and " has not been found wanting" in 

 any way. I have several acres of vineyard of it at my Clover Hill 

 Farm, near Tinton Falls, N. J. All who would like to see it in 

 bearing, are hereby extended a cordial invitation to visit the farm 

 and inspect it. 



Price of strong vines : Each, $ 1 .00 ; dozen, $ 1 2.00 ; 1 00, $ 1 00.00.
