 we cordially invite the orders of our friends and customers. Our Grape Vines are grown by special methods from thoroughly 

 well-ripened wood, and cannot be surpassed for HEALTH, VIGOR, AND EARLY BEARING. We offer both one and two-year 

 sizes. The ONE-YEAR Vines are strong, heavy-rooted plants, sure to grow and come quickly into bearing, and can be sent 

 by Mail or Express. The Two-year Vines cost a little more, but are much larger and stronger; as they are too large to 

 go by Mail, they must invariably be sent by Express.
