givers they are very fine. Used to embellish an otherwise drab 
wall or ugly bank, they are indispensable.

CLEMATIS CULTURE 
Plant in well drained rich soil. The hole should be deep 
enough to accommodate the roots without spreading too much. 
If the roots are very long and numerous they may be cut back 
to 6 or 8 inches and some of the weaker roots thinned out. 
The roots should be separated enough so that soil comes firmly 
into contact with all the roots. Water thoroughly once a week 
only, if rain has not already done the watering. 
GRAPE, Beta. This grape makes one of the best vines for covering 
porches and arbors. It is perfectly hardy without winter protection 
and produces an abundance of fruit of medium size.

habit. Clings firmly to such surfaces as presented by brick, coarse

on very nicely with new growth each spring.
