Grapes are easily grown by any one, and on the smallest bit of ground. There is room along any garden 

 fence or walk for two dozen vines to furnish 

 this most delicious of fruits from August till 

 November. . 



The vines will fruit under unfavorable condi- 

 tions, but good culture, pruning and spraying pay, 

 if fruit of best quality is desired. Protecting the 

 clusters as soon as formed by a 2-pound paper 

 bag, prevents injury from fungus, storm and birds.
