GET THE FULL FLAVOR OF VINE-RIPENED GRAPES 



THE OUTSTANDING 

 EASTERN VARIETIES 



CONCORD — The Best Blue 



This wonderful variety has what most peo- 

 ple mean when they say "that real grape fla- 

 vor." It is one of the most delicious of all 

 grapes for fresh eating. Concord is also an 

 old favorite for jams, jelly, and juice. Since 

 about 1S44 this variety has proven beyond any 

 doubt that it is hardy in New England and 

 westward into Missouri. Vines of Concord are 

 very vigorous and productive. Concord is tops 

 either as a home garden or commercial variety. 

 It is still the leading grape variety in much of 

 the Eastern United States.

CACO — The Best Red 



This is a late-midseason. light-red variety 

 that is very vigorous and hardy under a_ wide 

 range of climates and soil types. Berries of 

 Caco are large and of high quality. Its bright, 

 juicy fruit make Caco excellent for the home 

 garden as well as for commercial plantings. 

 It is adapted to about the same area as Con- 

 cord. 



NIAGARA — The Best White 



Niagara is a real favorite with those who 

 know grapes because of its unusual vigor, high 

 yields, and large, uniform clusters. The skin 

 is tender and the flesh is sweet and juicy. 

 Adapted to most of the Concord area. 



FREDONIA— Outstanding Flavor 



For several years we have watched the per- 

 formance of Fredonia and believe it is one of 

 the best of all eastern grapes. It has unus- 

 ually fine flavor, a deep blue color, and high 

 quality. Fredonia ripens early and is very 

 productive and winter hardv.

GRAPES ARE EASY TO GROW 

 AND LAST FOR YEARS 



Grape vines may be planted in early Spring 

 or in the Fall in November and December. 

 Grapes should be set in a well-drained soil 

 that would produce garden crops. 



Vines are usually planted 8 to 10 feet apart 

 in the home garden and where a vineyard is 

 planned the rows should be 10 feet apart with 

 vines 4 to 5 feet apart in the row. Grapes 

 may be trained along a garden fence or a 

 regular arbor may be constructed to suit the 

 desired arrangement in the garden. 



A simple method of support is followed by 

 commercial growers. Wires are strung from 

 posts with top wire 5 feet above the ground 

 and the lower wire 2Y 2 feet above the ground. 



Pruning is one of the most important fac- 

 tors in obtaining marvelous grape harvests. 

 Our Better Berries Bulletin No. 3 completely 

 outlines most popular pruning methods ; other 

 information is given in Bulletin No. 14.
