The Black Grape for the Extreme North 
famoni 
Concord 
CONCORD. The greatest grape. It Is the purest, sweetest ana best of all. 
It Is a well balanced complete fruit, containing all of the essential ele¬ 
ments for maintaining the body at its highest efficiency. It is juicy, sweet, 
tender, hardy and most productive. Concord helps keep us immune from 
constipation, old age and disease. It is almost a "fountain of youth” in 
itself. 
MOORE’S EARLY. Very early. Bunch is medium, berries very large. Its 
earliness makes it desirable for an early market, and it is particularly 
adapted to the northern portions of the United States. Ripens two weeks 
before Concord. 
WORDEN. Worden is another seedling of Concord, but is sweeter, larger 
and the fruit will ripen about ten days earlier than Concord.

Grapes Grow and Thrive Most Everywhere 
I have selected only varieties which are hardy throughout this country. They grow 
and thrive even on poorest soil; in fact, ground too rich often produces vine growth 
rather than fruit. Concord, Caco and Moore’s Early have records of surviving and fruit¬ 
ing after temperatures of 35 degrees below zero. Diet books say grapes are the most 
healthful of all fruits. The grape makes new blood, purifies the old blood and lengthens 
life many, many years. Grapes made into jelly, jam, juice and wine or canned whole 
and eaten as fresh fruit are hard to beat. 
Get Fruit Next Year 
In planting grape vines you want fruit as soon as possible. You get it by planting 
these heavy selected 2-year-old vines. They have a wonderful root system, are full of 
pep and vitality, and may-bear for you next year. They produce big crops of big grapes 
year after year. My "How to Plant” book which is sent free with every nursery order 
tells you exactly how to plant and care for these vines. It tells you how to prune 
them, too.
