LOVETT'S GRAPE COLLECTION 

 Three Famous Favorites 



1 Caco. Best of the red Grapes. 

 1 Ontario. Highest quality white Grape.

 Three of the finest Grapes in horticulture. 

 All 2-year-old, for only 75c. 



MOORE'S 

 EARLY. 

 Two weeks 

 earlier than 

 Concord 



Cultural Directions: Where space permits, 

 the vines may be set 8 feet apart each way, 

 though in limited space, the rows can be as 

 close as 4 feet apart with the vines 8 feet 

 apart in the rows. After the first year's 

 growth, each vine should be reduced to 

 three strong branches, 18 to 24 inches long. 

 After that, each season's growth should be 

 pruned back, leaving only the strongest 

 branches, bearing 3 to 4 buds or "eyes" each. 

 Agawam. Aromatic Grapes of deep maroon, 

 in large, loose bunches. 2-yr., each 20c, doz. $2.00, 

 100 $12.00; fruiting-age, each 60c, doz. $6.00. 

 Brighton. Big compact bunches of quality red Grapes 

 in abundance; midseason. 2 yrs., each 25c, doz. 

 $2.50, 100 $15.00. 

 Campbell Early. Deep blue Grapes of rich, sweet 

 flavor. Early. (Must be planted near another va- 

 riety for cross-pollination.) 2 yrs., each 25c, doz. 

 $2.50; fruiting-age, each 60c, doz. $6.00. 

 Catawba. Big clusters of dull purplish red Grapes, 

 firm., yet juicy and very sweet, are produced late 

 in the season on this old favorite. 2 yrs., each 

 20c, doz. $2.00. 

 Concord. Most popular of all Grapes; succeeds with 

 practically no care on most soils. Big black 

 Grapes, pale green flesh, in large bunches. 2 yrs., each 

 15c, doz. $1.50, 100 $10.00. 

 Delaware. Many red Grapes which are not as large as those 

 of some sorts, but are more than delicious enough to make 

 up for their lack in size. 2 yrs., each 25c, doz. $2.50. 

 Diamond. A white Grape which produces quality berries, 

 ripening in September. Excellent for grape juice and for 

 eating out of hand. 2 yrs., each 25c, doz. $2.50.

 ductive. 2 yrs., each 25c, doz. $2.50.

 er. 2 yrs., each 25c, doz. $2.50; fruiting-age, each 60c, doz.

 Elderberry. The fruit is simply splendid for the making of pies, 

 jellies and wine. Strong, 2- to 3-ft. plants, 50c 

 each, $5.00 per doz. 



ASPARAGUS 



Culture. In the family garden, the roots should 

 be set from one to two feet apart in rows three 

 feet apart. They should be placed in furrows six 

 or eight inches deep, but covered with only about 

 three inches of soil at time of planting, the re- 

 mainder of the trench being filled in by degrees as 

 the plants increase in height. Care should be 

 taken to enrich the soil by a liberal digging in of 

 well-rotted manure. 



WASHINGTON 

 Because Washington is unquestionably by far 

 the best and most delicious of all varieties, we 

 have discontinued growing the others. The out- 

 standing characteristics of the new variety are: 

 Exceptional rust-resistance, extraordinary yielding 

 qualities, large size of individual stalks, and their 

 rapid development to cutting size, which rapid 

 growth stands for tenderness. The shoots are 

 straight, of dark green color, with a heavy purple 

 overtone. They are always tight and do not open 

 until well above the ground. 1 yr., doz. 30c, 100 

 $1.25, 1000 $9.00. 2 yrs., doz. 40c, 100 $1.50, 1000 

 $12.00. Extra large, 3 yrs., doz. 75c, 100 $2.50, 

 1000 $20.00.
