GRAPES 



One of Nature's Choicest Gifts 



Since time immemorial mankind has culti- 

 vated the grape, one of the most delicious of all 

 fruits. There are many reasons for the grape's 

 wide-spread popularity, the greatest being its 

 ready adaptability to many soils and sections. 

 Throughout the temperate zones, the world over, 

 grapevines thrive — frequently in soils and situations 

 too poor to support other crops. The stony hill- 

 sides of Europe furnish the world's choicest wines. 

 Grapes are also useful in the making of delicious 

 jams and jellies, grape juice and other beverages, 

 besides being a splendid table fruit. 



Grapevines That Will Save Time 



We decided several years ago that a considerable 

 percentage of growers wanted a plant product 

 minus the need to wait for results. We transplant- 

 ed extra strong vines, pruned them freely (both tops 

 and roots) and gave them extra care and cultivation. 

 These special "ready-to-bear" vines are available in 

 the many varieties which we" offer and they are 

 "ready to perform." They cost a little more, but 

 are worth much more! Many of these vines actu- 

 ally have borne small clusters in our nursery the 

 past season. They can be depended upon to bear 

 more and better clusters in your garden where the 

 growing conditions will be much more favorable. 



Commercial Growers are invited to request

WORDEN — 

 EVEN 

 BETTER 

 THAN IT 

 LOOKS 



Lovett's Caco Makes Many Friends 

 John M. Walton, of New Haven, Conn., wrote 

 as follows: "The grape vines obtained from you are 

 all coming along fine, especially the Caco. It is 

 certainly a husky grower and a mighty sweet grape." 



N. H. Bailey, Lawrence, Kansas, states: "I have 

 been growing your wonderful Caco grape for some 

 years and have been delighted with its splendid 

 qualities as a table grape and its fine appearance."
