Grow With Little Care—Bear Fruit Every Year 
No fruit has gained more favor in the last few years for commercial planting 
than Grapes. There has always been a good demand for Grapes in the home, vine¬ 
yards, but now Grapes are being extensively planted commercially. Our soil and 
climate here seem to be especially adapted to growing Grapes .and we are hear 
enough to the Eastern markets so that Grapes can be delivered in good condition 
and they demand very satisfactory prices. No city lot or farm home should be 
without Grapes. At least a few vines in the corners of the building or around the 
J G ILA P E- S Si 
fence; still better a nice arbor of a dozen 
or so vines to shade the walk. 
Grapes can be grown in any soil 
very well and offer quick returns; and 
you are almost sure of yearly crops. 
BRIGHTON (Red). A good commercial 
variety, but self sterile. Handsome red 
fruits of high quality. Vine is vigorous 
growing, productive and adaptable as to 
soils. 
CACO (Red). This variety combines the good 
qualities of both its parents, the Catawba 
and Concord, and is now known as the 
very best red Grape grown. The large, 
handsome fruit is borne in complete 
bunches and is a rich wine red color; the 
flesh is tender, sweet and delightfully 
flavored. Vine is strong, vigorous, and 
bears very young. 
CATAWBA (Red). A leading Grape in 
juice-making regions and one of the best 
known and most widely grown of the red 
varieties. Strong grower and very pro¬ 
ductive; excellent keeper. 
CONCORD (Blue). Decidedly the most 
popular Grape in America, as it adapts 
itself to varying conditions and is profit¬ 
ably grown in every Grape growing state 
in the Union. Bunch is large, shouldered 
and compact. Big berries, covered with a 
rich bloom; dark blue; skin is tender; 
but amply firm to carry w'ell to distant 
markets. Flesh juicy, sweet and tender; 
excellent flavor. Strong vine, healthy, 
hardy, productive. The most reliable and 
profitable market variety. 
DELAWARE (Red). The exquisite little 
American dessert Grape. Handsome, reli¬ 
able, very highest quality with an un¬ 
matched spiciness and sweetness. Often 
referred to as “The Winter Grape,” as 
the bunches often hang on the vine until 
freezing weather. 
IVES (Blue). This is one of the outstanding 
wine Grapes. Close set on the bunches, 
rather a heavy producer. Planted heavily 
before prohibition for the wineries. Now 
there is not enough stock to go around. 
We would advise the planting of this fine 
variety to a large extent for steady income. 
Dark blue. 
LUTIE (Red). New. The new Southern 
Grape of excellent quality and one of the 
most satisfactory varieties for this part of 
the country; large bunches, dark red, me¬ 
dium to large berries, super sweet and 
excellent quality. Ripens after Moore’s 
Early and hangs on vines until Concord 
comes in. 
MOORE’S EARLY (Blue). One of the 
very best early blue Grapes. Clusters 
medium size; berry very large. Ripens 
nearly two weeks before Concord, and is 
about the same quality. Vine hardy. A 
valuable asset to every fruit garden. 
NIAGARA (White). The most valuable all 
white Grape. Clusters large and handsome, 
completely filled with large berries. Skin 
thin and tough. Flesh pulpy, tender, sweet 
and delightful, with an individual flavor 
and aroma. 
Dig the hole as broad and deep as 
if a three year Apple tree were to be 
planted. Fill the hole up to the right 
depth for planting with compost or 
rich soil. A few old bones in bottom of 
hole will make rich feeding for the 
vines later on. Trim roots slightly and 
cut back top to 3 or 4 strong buds. 
Use rich soil around roots. Always 
plant firmly. 
BLUEBERRIES 
A wholesome, native fruit which has within 
recent years been greatly improved and 
brought into prominence. Our numerous, 
famous varieties of Apple have been pro¬ 
duced from the small Crabs, our many deli¬ 
cious varieties of Grapes are results of im¬ 
proving on the native wild Grapes, just as 
the improved, named varieties of Blueberries 
have been produced by research arid cross 
breeding of the native varieties found grow¬ 
ing wild in the mountains of the eastern part 
of the United States. 
Numerous varieties have been produced 
and offered, but three appear to meet all re¬ 
quirements. There is no need to plant more 
when the best may be had in three varieties, 
providing for pollenization and fruit ripening 
at various seasons. We recommend and offer 
the following varieties: 
CABOT. The earliest bearing variety, a 
handsome, treelike shrub, will attain a 
height of 6-7 ft.; fruit is delicious, large, 
very blue. Fruit is borne in flat clusters. 
PIONEER. Grows taller than the Cabot. 
Berries same size and color as Cabot, 
equally sub-acid and delicious. A good 
hedge plant as it turns bronzy-red in the 
Fall and retains its leaves for a long time. 
Medium late. Fruit is borne in Grapelike 
clusters or spikes. 
RUBEL. This is our latest bearing variety. 
A prolific bearer of slightly smaller berries, 
more tart than the above varieties. Makes 
a shapely, dense bush. Fine tor shrubbery 
borders or as a backgronnd ior the other 
varieties. Fruit is borne in loose clusters 
along the branches.
