CURRANTS 



The Currant worm is easily controlled by using 

 white hellebore or Paris green in solution, and using 

 it in season, before the bushes are defoliated. Cut 

 out all old wood and as much new as may be neces- 

 sary to give room for proper development of leaves 

 and fruit. Currants and Gooseberries love a deep 

 moist soil, and a heavy mulch is excellent. 

 Black Lees. Very large; fine for jams or jellies. 

 Cherry. The largest of all the red Currants. 

 Fay's Prolific. Color deep red; an excellent sort.

quality; finest white sort.

GRAPES, HARDY VARIETIES 



We urge everyone to plant Grape Vines to supply 

 their own table. No fruit is more easily grown or 

 is more luscious and wholesome. Soil should be 

 warm and dry and of good quality. Under such 

 conditions the Grape will thrive in a very limited 

 space.

 ity.

 variety.

 resembles in appearance and flavor; but ripens 

 several days earlier.
