My 2'year-old 
GRAPES 
bear next year 
l sell only two-year No. 1 Grapes (except in Concord of which 
I also offer the standard grade for large plantations). You will 
find a great difference between just a two-year-old grape and 
a Two-Year No. 1 plant. The latter not only will be much 
more certain to start, it will make a vigorous growth and inside 
of one year will be in bearing shape. Under normal conditions 
they make you a light crop the second year and abundant crops 
thereafter. These plants would be cheap if they would cost 
twice as much as the regular two-year-olds, but the difference 
in price is but very little. 
C'rim — A FANCY GRAPE. A grape of finest qual- 
V-sUUC'' J.itS'-i ity, berries exceptionally large, juicy and 
come in good srze, and well shaped clusters. The color when 
fully ripe is a rich amber (light red). However, the berries are 
sweet before they color up, and many are used as table grapes 
or for wine while they still look green. Perfectly hardy any¬ 
where in the Middle West; in the North I recommend a light 
cover over winter; lay the vines down on the ground and cover 
them with dirt or straw. This is done after the leaves have 
fallen and before the ground freezes. 
Catawba - Copper-red ^e P yarSy n for ul gLpi P !uic^ 
abundant and profitable bearer. 
_ PI (-.]»• The most popular of all grapes, the 
best known grape in the Middle West 
on the market as well as with the farmers. It is a very hardy 
grape, and bears regular and large crops. Most farmers in the 
Middle West make Concord the larger part of their planting, and 
include a few white and red grapes for fancy table varieties. 
Concord is always dependable. 
Lucille - Red 
VERY HARDY. Yields as much or even 
more than Concord, and it is even hardier 
than Concord. The vine is a healthy, strong grower. Always 
ripens the wood well before fall so that bearing for the coming 
season is assured. The Lucille is sweet, and of very good 
quality, and the bundles are large, and remarkably compact. 
Lucille is a wonderful market variety everywhere, and even in 
the extreme North you can grow this grape with best results. 
It ripens early. 
A very common sight on a Concord grape vine. Even during the 
recent dry years. Concord produced its usual crop, although the ber¬ 
ries might have been a little smaller than in normal years, the quality 
was as good as ever. 
BETA—Black. On the Sonderegger home place, covering an arbor. 
Renter — Rlfrrk FOR ARBORS. The vigorous growth of the 
uclu ajiiav-is. plant is highly desirable for covering arbors 
or tall trellis work. The vine is entirely hardy, even in the 
North where it will come through the winter without cover. 
The fruit is of medium size, black, of excellent quality for wine 
and grapejuice. 
Pl rr „L TABLE GRAPE. The finest early 
j-t.iii.UJtv Black Grape I know of. It is as 
hardy as the Concord, the berries which are of large size, black 
with beautiful blue bloom, ripen evenly. In every respect a 
fancy table grape which should be in every garden. 
Moore's Diamond - While coVo" b fi 
quality, hardiness and bearing ability it is as good as the 
Concord. The berries are greenish-white. I can highly recom¬ 
mend this grape for Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and the 
Texas Panhandle. 
Mooi'P*? Frrrlv — Rlrrrlr ° f excellent quality for the 
iviuure b EjUriy - DiaCK table as well as for grapejuice 
or jelly. The berries are fairly large, in medium size clusters, 
which are hardly ever shouldered. The vine is a strong grower, 
and is healthy. Hardy in the Middle West. For the home gar¬ 
den it is always a good policy to plant a variety of grapes. In¬ 
clude this grape in your planting, you will like it.

-■ PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS ——■ = 
My two-year-old Grape Vines are exceptionally well rooted. For this reason dig large holes, even larger than required for trees. 
Spread the lower sets of roots out evenly in the hole, then flil in with good top soil. There is a second set of roots about half 
way up the root shaft. These roots are spread out over the soil that has been filled in on top of the lower roots. Then finish 
filling up to within two inches from the surface of the soil. Water heavily to settle the soil. Use no kind of fertilizer in plant¬ 
ing Grapes, just good top soil, it is best. (continued on next page)
