POMEGRANATES 
PURPLE-SEEDED. This variety, which I introduced, is by far the best I have 
ever seen. The fruit is large, rind thin, and the color of the seed a dark ruby or wine 
color. The flavor is very fine, being sprightly, vinous, subacid. X have received very 
flattering testimonials from every one who has seen this Pomegranate It is remark- 
able that the Pomegranate is not more generally planted, as it ripens in September when 
all other fruits are gone ; it also makes a delightful summer drink. The bark of the 
tree contains valuable medicinal properties, and in France it is used in tanning the 
finest grades of kid.

GRAPES 
The vine comes quickly into bearing, yielding fruit usually the second year after 
planting, requires but little space, and, when properly trained, is an ornament to the 
yard, garden or vineyard It is stated by some of the most e mine nt physiologists that 
among all the fruits conducive -uim- 
to regularity, health and vigor 
in the human system, the 
Grape ranks number one 
We hope to see the day when 
every family shall have an 
abundant supply of this most 
excellent fruit for at least 
six months of the year. The 
soil for Grapes should be 
dry ; when not so naturally, 
it should be thoroughly 
drained. It should be deeply 
worked and well manured 
CONCORD Bunches

black, with bloom; skin thin, cracks 
easily; flesh sweet, pulpy, tender; 
qualify good ; very prolific and a vig- 
orous grower One of the most reliable 
and profitable varieties for general cul- 
tivation, and, next to Delaware, the 
most popular of native Grapes. 
MOORE’S DIAMOND. A new white Grape 
of handsome appearance, equal or superior to 
the Niagara in quality, and io days earlier than 
that variety. It is a very vigorous and thrifty 
grower, and seems to be well suited for culture in the South, both for home use and 
as a market Grape. 
DELAWARE. Bunch medium, 
compact ; berries medium ; skin thin 
but tenacious, light red ; pulp tender, 
vinous and sprightly ; quality best ; moderate 
grower, but vine very healthy ; very prolific, and 
freer from diseases than any other variety- 
grown ; unsurpassed for table and white wine. 
This variety ranks as the standard of excellence. 
NIAGARA. Bunch and berry large, green- 
ish yellow ; flesh pulpy, sweet, foxy. Although 
not of the best quality, its remarkable size and 
fine appearance give it much popularity as a 
market variety ; vigorous and prolific 
MOORE’S EARLY. Bunch small; berry large, round, blue-black: flesh pulpy, 
sweet ; quality good ; early, or two weeks before the Concord. Valuable for market.
