Grape Vines Ready-to-Bear 



We want to be frank about it and say that you must not expect 

 tremendous crops the very first summer from our bearing age vines 

 such as we offer below. Knowing the impatience with which the 



average home gardener waits for plants 

 to come into bearing, we prepared three 

 years ago to provide plants of the kind 

 which partly eliminated 

 the necessity of waiting. 

 We set aside several acres 

 of the best land in our 

 Nurseries and planted 

 them with grape vines 

 — of good varieties, with 

 thousands of plants. For 

 three years we have culti- 

 vated, pruned and judici- 

 ously handled these until 

 we are satisfied that no 

 better grape vines than these 

 can be secured anywhere at any 

 price. They are heavily rooted, 

 strongly caned specimen plants, 

 most of which have already 

 borne clusters of fruit this past 

 year in the nursery row. 



In a smaii garden especially, 

 where space is a big factor, and 

 the gardener can not afford to 

 experiment widely, we cannot 

 too highly recommend either 

 Lovett's Caco or the Champagne 

 Grapes. Both make excellent 

 quality grape juice or wine, be- 

 sides being excellent table fruit. 

 Caco especially, in quality of 

 fruit, almost if not fully equals 

 the greenhouse product. 



Lovett's Caco Grape 



Caco inherits the valuable characteristics of both Catawba and Con- 

 cord, its parents, in a remarkable degree. A perfectly hardy grape 

 pronounced to equal, in high quality and melting texture, the finest 

 varieties grown under glass. 



In appearance the most beautiful of hardy grapes; berry large, wine- 

 red with abundant bloom. Bunch of good size, compact and of good 

 form. Ripens in advance of Concord; so rich in sugar it is excellent 

 in flavor two weeks in advance of being fully ripe. Vine a very strong, 

 vigorous grower, healthy and prolific. The fruit sells in open market, 

 by the crate, at double the price of other varieties. 



The cardinal qualities of Caco are: Extreme rich, sugary flavor, 

 beauty of fruit beyond words to describe, and what is more important 

 extreme vigor of vine. Prices of Caco Grape Vines: 1 year, each, 75c; 

 dozen, $7.50. 2 years, each, $1.00; dozen, $10.00. Heavy fruiting age 

 vines, each, $2.00, dozen, $20.00. 



Champagne 



So hardy that it has never been known to be 

 winter killed. Produces immense crops of am- 

 ber colored grapes. Bunches are of medium 

 size, individual berry very large. It is of extra 

 high quality and so free in sugar that "in the old 

 days" a delicious wine was made from this va- 

 riety without the addition of any sugar. 1 year, 

 each, 50^; dozen, $5.00. 2 years, each, 75^; 

 dozen, $7.50. 



Washington Asparagus 



This variety is the result of many years' work 



by Prof. J. B. Nor- 

 ton, in an endeavor 

 to create a strain of 

 asparagus that is rust 

 resistant. 



Prof. Norton, in re- 

 ferring to this variety, 

 recently wrote: "Our 

 seed fields are now 

 composed of those in- 

 dividuals that pro- 

 duce large, straight 

 shoots, dark green in 

 color, with a heavy 

 purple over-tone . This 

 makes this strain es- 

 pecially suited for 

 "green asparagus." 

 1 year, dozen, 75 C, 

 100, §2.00; 1,000, 

 S18.00. 2 years, doz- 

 en, $1.00; 100, $3.00. 



Rochester 

 Peach 



This very valuable extra early 

 yellow Peach is, we believe, the 

 finest variety we have ever seen . 

 It is simply immense in size, 

 beautiful in appearance, of 

 superb quality and without a 

 defect of which we have any 

 knowledge. You can gather 

 great crops, as shown alongside, 

 within a very few years after 

 you plant our sturdy trees. 

 Each, $1.00; dozen, $10.00. 



Lovett Apple 



The most beautiful apple we 

 have ever seen. It ripens with 

 us the early part of August and 

 is fully up to Mcintosh in 

 quality (we like it better) ; it is 

 also an exceedingly strong 

 grower. The fruit, above the 

 average size, is produced in 

 greatest abundance. Each, 

 $5.00; dozen, $50.00. 



Grow More Dwarf 

 Pear Trees 



Just think of 

 being able to 

 raise nine fruit 

 trees whereor- 

 dinarily you 

 can plant but 

 four! More- 

 over, dwarf 

 Pear trees 

 come into bear- 

 ing very much 

 quicker than 

 the standard 

 varieties, while 

 the product is 

 just as large 

 and the crops 

 are much easier 

 to gather. Truly, dwarf Pear trees are the ideal fruit 

 for the suburban garden and small estate and you 

 will find our stocks of varieties named below ex- 

 ceptionally fine. 



Dwarf Pears 



Plant 10 feet apart each way. These start bearing 

 almost immediately, frequently the same season as 

 planted. We offer the following varieties: Angouleme, 

 Anjou, Bartlett, Clapp's Favorite and Seckel. 



Splendid trees, all two years old or older, each, 

 $1.50; dozen, $15.00.
