Tiie Niagara. — The Niagara grape is 

 the best of the white varieties. The 

 hunches are large, transparent white, 

 very sweet and delicious in flavor This 

 is one of the best table grapes, but will 

 answer also for wine making. 20c. each. 



Scuppernong. — The Bronze Scupper- 

 nong Grapes are native of the South, and 

 bear well here. In Mississippi, Alabama 

 and Florida, Scuppernong Grapes are 

 largely planted for preserving and wine 

 making; they are excellent for the latter 

 purpose, and will make as good wine as 

 Missouri. The vines should net be 

 trimmed. 25c. each. 



Columbian Imperial Grape. 



This is the largest and most beautiful 

 purple Grape in the world. The vines 

 are very productive and grow in any soil. 

 Its deep feeding root enables it to resist 

 any long period of drought, which, how- 

 ever, while somewhat reducing the size 

 of- the fruit, does not in the least affect 

 its bearing qualities. It is decidedly free 

 from disease — mildew and black rot. 

 Grows in immense clusters, berries of 

 rich purple color, fine flavor, sweet, juicy 

 pulp, compact and even growth. A de- 

 sirable shipping and table grape. Price, 

 50c. eacn. 



Japanese Violet Fig. 



As all Japanese varieties of fruit trees 

 seem to thrive and do equally as well, 

 and in many instances better in our 

 climate than in their own soil, our cus- 

 tomers can fesl assured that this grand 

 Fig will prove a decided acquisition to 

 the special stock we already carry. The 

 fruit is the largest known, deep violet 

 color, and flesh very sweet. No orchard 

 is complete without a few trees of this 

 delicious fruit, which is becoming more 

 popular every year as an article of com- 

 merce. Price, 75c. each. 



Celeste or Celestial Fig. 



We have a good supply of one year old 

 trees. They have been raised from cut-
