New Hardy Red Grape. 
Caco or Catawba-Concord. A cross between the old favorite 
Catawba and the well-known Concord. It ripens a little in 
advance of the Concord. This variety fully equals the Con¬ 
cord in strength and rapidity of growth and is very hardy. 
The color is a rich sparkling wine-red, with abundant bloom. 
Bunch large; berry medium to large and almost round. The 
crowning merit, however, is its quality, surpassing in ten¬ 
derness of pulp, luscious flavor and aroma the Catawba, 
while it is as prolific as the Concord. {.Set cut.) Price. 2 
year vines, 75c. each; $7.50 per doz.

light purple bloom; skin thin, but very tenacious; flesh firm but

from stem. Price, 2-year vines, 30c. each; $3.00 per doz.
