HOME VEGETABLE GARDENING 
SMALL FRUITS IN THE HOME GARDEN 
T>ECAUSE of the prevailing high prices for fruits of 
■*“* all kinds, a berry patch generally proves a most 
profitable adjunct to the home garden of a permanent 
nature. A strawberry bed of even small size pays hand- 
somely, in spite of the fact that it occupies the ground the 
year around. Grape vines may be trained to fences. 
Gooseberry and currant bushes may be utilized as boun- 
dary or division lines or to border the paths. Tree- 
shaped specimens of both lend themselves particularly 
well for this purpose. 
Here are the names of some of the best known kinds: 
1. Currants: Black Victoria, Red Cherry, Perfection, 
W ilder, White Grape. 
2. Gooseberries: Downing, Houghton, Industry, Car- 
man, and Portage. 
3. Grape Vines: Black Concord, Moore’s Early, 
Red Brighton, Catawba, White Diamond, Niagara. 
4. Strawberries: New Everbearing Superb and Pro- 
gressive. Of the common kinds, Dunlap, Gandy, Haver- 
land, Parsons, Sample, Warfield, Wm. Belt.
