GRAPES 
AGAWAM. One of the most reliable Roger’s Hy¬ 
brids. Purplish red, of striking appearance, and large 
berry. Sweet and with rich aromtic flavor. Ripens 
soon after Concord—a good keeper. Vine self- 
fertile, vigorous and very productive, but subject to 
mildew. 
BRIGHTON. A popular red York State commercial 
variety, ripening before Concord. A sure crop, high 
quality, handsome grape, on a wide variety of soils. 
Not a good keeper. Berry medium to large with 
heavy bloom. Must be interplanted, being self-sterile. 
CACO. A new red grape of extremely large size. 
Vigorous and hardy, ripens early in September. Very 
high quality and highly recommended. 
CAMPBELL EARLY. A strikingly handsome, large 
black August grape with blue bloom. Tough skin 
and good shipper, coloring up ten days before 
ripening, and will hang six weeks on the vine. 
Bunches large and compact, often double-should¬ 
ered. Must be pruned closely. Inclined to overbear. 
Excellent commercial sort for Northern latitudes. 
CATAWBA. A well-known, late-ripening, chocolate- 
colored grape of a rich musky flavor. When well 
grown will keep indefinitely, but demands high 
culture, a warm situation and long season to mature 
perfectly. Bunch and berry both large to very large. 
Quality the very best.
