GRAPES 
Are Easy to Grow—Good for a 
Lifetime—Very Productive 
The Grape is perfectly hardy and can be grown al¬ 
most anywhere. It must have well drained soil, but it 
is not particular as to the kind of soil. They grow equal¬ 
ly well in heavy clay, light sand or loam. Should be 
planted about 8 to 10 feet, requiring 485 plants per acre. 
Should receive regular trimming, cutting off of all the 
new growth but four laterals, tow each side of the main 
stalk, and these trellised on the wire so they nearly 
meet the laterals reaching from the next vine, making it 
one continuous line, one on each wire; no side shoots 
of any kind. 
Concord- This is the standard of quality and 
comparison on all markets. It is perfectly hardy, very 
productive and will succeed anywhere. The bunches are 
large and compact; berries large, bluish black color. 
Foliage healthy and tough, and hangs on very late. The 
one all-purpose Grape; we heartily recommend it for 
both home use and market. 
Worden -Very hardy, healthy and productive. In 
vigor and health is surpassed by no other variety; is 
practically immune from fungous diseases, and a sure, 
heavy cropper. A few days earlier than Concord. Jet 
black. 
Niagara-This is the late leading white 
Grape throughout the country. Berries large, yel¬ 
lowish green when ripe. The bunch is large and 
compact. Is vigorous and hardy, and fully as pro¬ 
ductive as Concord. Fine flavored. 
Portland — A new white grape developed 
in Fredonia, N. Y. Ripens earlier than any other 
known grape, which permits its being planted over 
a wide range of territory. Berries large, and have 
that beautiful yellowish color. Quality excellent, 
equal to the Niagara and other later Grapes. It 
contains much sugar and can be eaten before it 
is fully ripe. Vine hardy and productive. You will 
be pleased with this new Grape. Makes a beauti¬ 
ful showing with Fredonia. 
Delaware -Beautiful light red to amber 
colored berries, small in size and sweeter than 
any other Grape. Bunches small and compact, 
sometimes shouldered. Flesh is juicy and spicy 
and of finest quality for table use, jellies, etc. 
CaCO - A new red Grape originated in 
Delaware. Its quality is excellent, ripening in 
September. The fruit is very large, and hand¬ 
some. A rich wine-red color. Flavor of the finest, 
very rich and sweet. 
Moore’s Early — Ripens about ten days 
earlier than Concord. A fine table Grape, as the 
fruit is sweet and delicious. Berries and bunch 
extra large and firm; quality excellent. A fine 
Grape for home use and market. Black with light 
blue bloom. 
A VINEYARD-FOR PLEASURE AND PROFIT 
Grape Culture Dig a wide deep hole. Set vines about 9 or 10 feet apart in the row, with 
the rows about the same distance apart. Tie the plant to a stake the first year. The second year set 
posts and stretch one wire. The third year, another wire should be added about 10 inches above 
the first wire, allowing the plant to grow just one stem up to the second wire, then cut plant off 
even with this second wire. This forces the plant to send out side branches or shoots to grow 
out onto the wires. Old wood should be cut awa y each year, allowing the new wood to grow 
along the wires to produce the following year’s crop. Trim in early winter or early spring. 
Linnaeus Rhubarb 
Rhubarb should be grown in every garden, as 
it provides material for early spring pies and 
fresh table sauce. It is also valuable for canning. 
Plant a few roots this spring and you will have 
a fresh supply of this early “fruit.” This variety 
differs greatly from the old “pie plant,” in that 
it has larger, more tender stalks and a milder 
sub-acid flavor. Our roots are strong and priced 
right. Include a few of them in your order this 
spring.

Martha Washington 
Asparagus 
This new pedigreed, rust-resistant Asparagus 
is the result of breeding by the United States 
Bureau of Plant Industry. 
We are listing this one variety only as that is 
the best and are listing it in only one size, the 
two-year, which we consider to be the best 
Asparagus buy in the country. Why let a few 
cents difference in price keep you from having 
the best, both as to variety and size? See Price 
List.
