lONA AND ISRAELLA 
VINES. 
I am still able to furnisli vines of best quality for garden 
planting, to Clubs, and to Individuals. 
For a statement of the great advantages of purchasing by 
Clubs, see Club propositions, and also revised Price List for 
spring o( IS&I. 
The extremely low price at which those vines m-c sold to 
Clubs will place them within the roach of the most moder- 
ate means, and the money obtainable at the end of the first 
season from propatrators for the cuttings will rop;iy the coat 
of their purchase. These vines will not be In less demand 
than at present, until the country is supplied, and maybe 
expected to aflord an Increasing revenue In this way for 
years to come. 
■U'horover they become known there Ifl no person that has 
place for them to grow, that will be without enough to fnr- 
Jiish grapes for a generous family supply durins at least four 
or Ave mouths of the year. 
The lona and Israclla grapes are admitted by all good 
judges to be greatly superior to all other native grapes but 
the radical and important dill'erencfl between the lona and 
our heretofore leading kinds is fully understood only by those 
who have made themselves well acquainted with both, by 
actual trial in immediate comparison. 
The past fall this trial was made in thousands of Instances 
with the best Catawbas, and always with the same result. 
No one wlio has made the trial has ever said that the lona 
has been or can bo overpraised. 
Many have conjectured that a grape of such surpassing 
excellence as the lona could not be verij hardy. The ex- 
treme severity of the past winter has added a va=t amount 
of "cumulative evidence," to the already denionstrativo 
proof from all quarters, of its surpassing hardiness, 
I have prepared a Pamphlet of 24 pages, wltli fine Engrav- 
ings of the vines in bearing, that gives nn accurate descrip- 
tion of the character of tliese grapes, with their origin and 
liistory. also some of the opinions of Judges and Commit- 
tees that have examined them the past three years, and of 
some that have known them thoroughly for eight year.=. 
It Is sent with Price List for 3-cent stamp. Colored Engravincrs 
of the lona sent for $1..50. To all purchasersfor §1.00, and to 
Club Agents for 75 cents. It is a handsome picture for fi-ani - 
ing or for portfolio. "Manual of the Vine," a thorough 
and extensive treatise sent for 50 cents. It contains about 
ir,0 illustrative and cliiefly original engravings, with m-.u-'i 
important matter that cannot be found elsewhere.

are very chean fir Vinevardist.", Nur;^errmen or Dealers,
