The Lucile 
The Coming Red 
Market Grape 
The Lucile yields as much or more 
than Concord, Niagara or any 
other well known market grape. 
Hardy and healthy as any grape 
and much more so than Niagara. A 
strong, robust grower and ripens its 
wood to the tip under a load of fruit, 
under which the Niagara would not 
ripen one-half. 
The Lucile ripens between Moore’s Early and Worden, 
just in time to pack with Diamond and Worden, an ex¬ 
cellent trio of our national colors, red, white and blue. 
The Lucile is sweet, and its quality compares favorably with 
that of-Wyoming Red, which it also resembles in color. But its 
crowning giory is the size and compactness of its clusters, resembling 
those of Diamond and Pocklington, but are even larger. While 
it is an excellent market grape anywhere, it is indispensable at the 
extreme North where only early and extra hardy varieties succeed. 
The Lucile is a good shipper and never drops its berries, but 
where the season is long enough it gradually dries up into raisins 
on the vine.
