GRAPES 
Everyone should 1 have a few grape vines in the home garden. They require very 
little cultivation. If proper selection of varieties is made, one may have grapes on 
the tables for several months in the year. They can be trained over fences, trellises, 
or doorways and thus be ornamental as well as useful. To grow for market, they can 
be planted on hillsides that are unsuitable for other crops. They should in all cases 
have a free exposure to the sun and air.

berries are small with thin but firm skin; 
flesh juicy, very sweet and refreshing 
and of the best quality for both table 
use and for wine. Ripens with Concord 
or a little before; vine is hardy, produc¬ 
tive and a moderate grower. 
Niagara. Occupies the same position 
among the white varieties as Concord 
among the black. Bunch and berries 
large, greenish white, changing to pale 
yellow when fully ripe. Skin thin but 
tough, quality much like the Concord.
