 GAGO GRAPE 



Awarded a Medal by 

 The American Insti- 

 tute of New York — the 

 Highest Honor ever con- 

 ferred upon a new grape. 



The deciding factors in 

 favor of Caco are its hardi- 

 ness and its unusually rich 

 and sugary flavor, which 

 alone would mark it as a 

 superb discovery. No other 

 grape grown out-of-doors or 

 under glass can surpass Caco 

 in quality, beauty, dependabil- 

 ity, or as a combination of all % 

 these qualities. It stands uniq^ue 

 among the hardy grapes of to- 

 day. Color, red and amber, 

 beautifully overlaid with bloom. 



Prices, 2=year=oId, each, 75c; dozen, $7.50; 

 100, $50.00. Heavy fruiting age vines, each, 

 $1.50; dozen, $15.00. 



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 plants 8 feet apart in the rows. After 

 the first year's growth, each vine should be re- 

 duced to three strong branches 18 to 24 inches 

 long. After that, each season's growth should 

 be pruned back, leaving only the strongest 

 branches and bearing three to four buds or 

 "eyes" each.

GRAPES 



The Pick of the Choicest 



AQAWAM — Red. A large grape, ripening 

 with Concord. Sweet, with rich, aromatic flavor. 

 A rank grower, and very productive. 2 years, 

 each, 50c; doz., $5.00. Heavy fruiting age vines, 

 each, $1.00; doz., $10.00. 



BRIGHTON — Until the 

 introduction of Caco, this

 est in quality of all hardy 

 grapes. The medium-sized

 r/un somewhat 

 larger than those 

 of Caco. Ripens in 

 midseason. 2 yrs.,

CAMPBELL'S 

 EARLY — A 

 new variety of 

 strong, vigorous 

 growth ; very 

 hardy and very 

 early. The ber- 

 ries are large, 

 dark blue, skin thick and 

 tough, making it a good 

 shipper; flesh sweet, with 

 slight aroma. Since this 

 variety is lacking in pollen, 

 it should be planted rather 

 near a vine or vines of 

 some other variety, other- 

 wise, the fruit produced is 

 liable to be in small poorly 

 shaped bunches. 2=year, 

 each, 50c; dozen, $5.00. 



CATAWBA— Red. One 

 of the latest grapes, and 

 for this reason should be 

 planted in every garden 

 and every vineyard, to pro- 

 long the season. Size 

 large ; firm and sweet. 2- 

 year, each, 50c; doz. $5.00. 



CHAMPAGNE— Excep- 

 tionally prolific in amber 

 colored clusters of sweet, 

 sugary grapes, ideal for 

 wine or grape-juice, and a 

 good table variety. Of iron- 

 clad constitution, very dis- 

 ease-resistant, and has 

 never been known to win- 

 terkill. Price, 2 years, each, 

 75c; dozen, $7.50; 100. $5J).
