Propositions for the formation of clubs, by which .all can 
obtain vines at wholesale prices, with other advantages, will 
be sent for a stamp. The propositions may accompany the 
price list and twenty four page pamphlet, or any of the cata¬ 
logues, without cost of stamp ; and I would invite the atten¬ 
tion of every purchaser to them for their great advantages. 
The excellence and importance of the new kinds, Iona and 
Israell.a, are now so well understood and appreciated that 
there is but one voice In regard to tlieni, and that of earnest, 
enthusiastic pnaise from all quarters where they are known. 
These can be very cheaply obtained by clubs who buy not 
less than fifty of the vinos. Early orders are necessary to 
secure the best plants. 
EHGRAVINGS OE THE IONA. 
A limited number of fine lithographic colored engravings 
of the Iona Grape have been prepared at great cost, by an 
eminent artist, which exceed in truth and beauty anything 
of the kind that has been produced withiu our knowledge, in 
any country; greatly surpassing tliose of the celebrated 
French artists, Grobon and Poiteau, in the brilliance and 
delicacy of their coloring, by which the transparency and 
iridescent play oflight is represented. As a work of art, it 
is worthy of a place in any portfolio, or of an elegant frame 
for the walls of the library or parlor. 
These engravings are furnished only as premiums with 
Iona vines. For particulars see propositions to clubs. As our 
artist was able to complete but a limited number, we can not 
agree to furuish them throughout the entire season. All who 
are desirous of securing them to aid in canvassing will do 
well to send an early remittance, according to one of the 
“ special propositions.” 
Has the eault kipeninq of the Iona and Isp.aella 
Geapes been obtained by any pop.cing appliances oe 
BY ANY OTBEE MEANS THAN THAT OP OBDINAKY CULTIVA¬ 
TION IN GAEDEN OE YINEYAED ? 
In answer, I would say both of tliese kinds h.ave always 
been grown under very moderate circumstances of cultiva¬ 
tion, in full exposure in tlie open ground, and without any 
forcing appliances whatever. Their surpassing productive¬ 
ness, as well as unequalled quality, are from the excellence 
of the kinds as may be clearly seen by any one who will 
call and examine. 
They have always oeen open to the Inspection ol the pub¬ 
lic at all seasons, and will continue to be so. 
A Pamplilct of Twenty-four pages gives the full state¬ 
ment of the manner iu which these vines were produced ; 
iu which will also be found hints for the production of 
Seedlings of all kinds, with a view to improvement. It con¬ 
tains a full account of the management of all of those vines 
from their production from seed to the present time. It is 
sent for a two cent stamp, and I commend it to the attention 
of all who have any interest in planting vines in garden or 
vineyard. It contains also, full Tables of Contents of the 
Descriptive and Illustrated Catalogues, with Price List of 
vines of all kinds. 
The Descriptive C.at.alogne is sent for ten cents, and the 
Illustrated for twenty-five cents. 
These two hound together In flexible paper-covers, and 
called “Manual of the Vine,” are sent for fifty cents. 
The Descriptive exhibits the principles and general consid¬ 
erations which form the basis upon which Grape-culture is 
to be successfully conducted, and Is illustrated with many 
very fine and life-like Engravings. It also contains full and 
accurate descriptions of all our native kinds that are worthy 
of notice, with a clear representation of their relative value 
with a chapter on “ IVine Making.” Also a lecture by Mr. 
Mead. 
The Illustrated (eighth edition) treats thoroughly of prac¬ 
tice and of practical results, illustrated with about eighty en¬ 
gravings. The two together constitute the most thorough, 
practical and comprehensive treatise on the Vine in the lan¬ 
guage. The conditions of the full measure of success are 
clearly stated, and the precise manner of perlorming every 
operation is so clearly shown as to be easily intelligible to 
every reader. 
P. S.——The supply of colored engravings of the Iona is 
at present exhausted, but another limited supply is in pre¬ 
paration, and will be ready in a few days. 
I would call the attention of all interested in good grapes 
whetlier for family supply or for market, to the distinctive 
excellence of the Iona and Israella. 
The Iona as a grape for late keeping, ns well as for its eor- 
liness, and for its quality, in which it has no competition, 
will soon render all of the inferior kinds (which are now 
recommended only for market, and not for use), of very lit¬ 
tle value. The vines are offered at extremely low prices, as 
will ho seen by consulting Price List and Club Propositions. 
I would also call attention to the advantage of obtaining 
vines grown from strong mature wood that has been pre¬ 
pared for that special purpose.

We take this metliod to intorm our friends and nisfomcr? 
that oitr large slock of grape vinos is entirely sold, and wo 
were obliged to shorten the orders of nianv of our host ous 
tomers. \Ve sell only vines grown by onrselvos, none have 
been sold at auction or by agents, and we have advertisea 
but little. Our plants are good, strong and healtliv enough 
to sell without pufliug. d. F. DELIOT & HVD'EK,
