Standard GRAPES 



(Continued) 



CAMPBELL'S EARLY— 



A superb early-ripening black 

 ■jrape. Produces extra large 

 ounches of fruit that is not 

 only attractive in appear- 

 ance, but of superb quality. 

 Because it is lacking 

 in pollen, this sort 

 should be planted near 

 some variety that is 

 free in pollen. Dia- 

 mond is excellent for 

 this purpose. Inciden- 

 tally, the two sorts 

 form a great combination of 

 highest quality fruits. 1 

 year, each, 50c; dozen, 

 $5.00. 2 years, each, 75c.; 

 dozen, $7.50. 

 CATAWBA (See illustration)— 

 The standard red grape of eastern 

 America. The vine is vigorous, 

 hardy, and productive. Clusters 

 large, long, and broad. Berries of medium 

 size, dull purplish-red with thick bloom; 

 firm. 1 year, each, 40c; dozen, $4.00. 

 2 years, each, 50c. ; dozen, $5.00. 



CONCORD — Best known and most pop- 

 ular variety in America. It succeeds prac- 

 tically everywhere. Its large black berries 

 are borne in large bunches and, being cov- 

 ered with a decided bloom, they are of most 

 attractive appearance. Of good quality. 

 1 year, each, 25c; dozen, $2.50; 100, $10.00; 

 1,000, $75.00. 2 years, each, 35c; dozen, 

 $3.50; 100, $15.00; 1,000, $100.00. Heavy 

 fruiting age vines, each, 75c ; dozen, $7.50. 



DELAWARE — An old-time red variety. 

 Bunch and berry small, refined, high quality. 

 Prolific, but a rather weak grower and somewhat 

 subject to mildew. 1 year, each, 40c; dozen, 

 $4.00. 2 years, each, 50c; dozen, $5.00. 



DIAMOND (Moore's) — Bunches large and com- 

 pact. Berry large, greenish white, juicy and of 

 good quality. A vigorous grower and prolific. 

 Ripens early. 1 year, each, 40c; dozen, $4.00; 

 2 years, each, 50c; dozen, $5.00. Heavy fruit- 

 ing age vines, each, $1.00; dozen, $10.00. 



San Antonio, Texas 



The plants were all received in excellent condition, and are 

 growing fine. The heavy fruiting-age Grape vines are well 

 laden with fruit buds — even the 2-year old Moore's Early 

 has fruit buds. Many thanks.

Grapes Many fold Uses and 



COMPARATIVELY few fruits equal the 

 grape in general usefulness, and ease of 

 culture. Grapevines will literally grow most 

 anywhere. It is a remarkable fact that some of 

 the choicest wines are made from poor looking, 

 undersized Grapes produced on stony hillsides 

 too poor to bear anything else. With us, Grapes 

 are the basis of the very important Grape juice in- 

 dustry. Jams, jellies and other preserves are the 

 result of home industry and it is safe to say that 

 some product of the Grape is found upon every 

 American table at one meal or another. 



We Provide "Bearing Age" Vines 



Grapevines, being a long-lived addition to the 

 home-grounds, generally require some time to be- 



Quick Ways to Grow Them 



come established. A plant will generally bear its 

 initial clusters during the third year of its life. One- 

 year-old plants will therefore have to be established 

 in your garden for two years before they begin to 

 bear. 



Some six years ago, persistent demand for heav- 

 ier, older vines caused us to feel that that demand 

 would grow. It did, and every year since then we 

 have made provisions for extra heavy, ready-to-bear 

 vines for gardeners looking for quicker results than 

 those obtainable from younger stock. Such vines 

 we secure by repeated transplanting, severe pruning 

 of tops and roots and giving such culture otherwise 

 as will hasten their maturity. Their cost is slightly- 

 greater than that of the regular grades but we as, 

 sure customers that they are well worth all they cost.
