Where the Best Grape Vines are Grown 
Since 1875 the West Hill Nurseries has been the 
headquarters for fine Grape Vines. There is no 
better place in the country than Chautauqua 
County for the growing of Grapes. Here you 
see large grape juice factories and wineries 
doing a nation-wide business from the prod¬ 
ucts of our many vineyards.

BEST LEADING VARIETIES 
AGAWAM, Red. An old favorite Most widely planted 
of the standard red varieties. Its berries are unusually 
large, dark red, firm, rich in juice and piquant in flavor. 
The vine is particularly vigorous and is self fertile, 
ripens a little after Concord. One of the most reliable 
of Rogers' Hybrids. 
BETA, Black. (Wine Grape.) A universal favorite. This 
somewhat new Grape is a cross between the best 
tame and wild varieties. It is particularly good for 
conserve, juice or jelly, because of its interesting wild 
grape flavor and somewhat tart tang. Beta is the 
hardiest of all Grapes, exceptionally satisfactory for 
far northern climes. Its sturdy growth and heavy foli¬ 
age make it especially desirable for arbor and semi¬ 
ornamental planting.

Grape 
Vines 
BRIGHTON, Dark Red. Old popular favorite. Bunch 
large, long and shouldered; berries medium, skin thin, 
flesh tender, sweet and best quality. Ripens with or 
before Delaware. Vine vigorous and fairly productive. 
Yields best if planted among other varieties. A valu¬ 
able and desirable Grape for garden and vineyard. 
CACO. The New Red Grape. This newly developed red 
Grape is fast becoming a favorite of all for the home 
vineyard. A cross of Concord and Catawba, it has in¬ 
herited the fine characteristics of each. It is by far the 
most bountiful of all the hardy Grapes, yielding aston¬ 
ishing harvests—large bunches of immense, gleaming 
Grapes, deep rich red, and amber colored. Their flavor 
is exceptional—full, sweet, winelike and refreshing. 
Ripens in September—highly recommended. 
CAMPBELL, Black. Table variety. A handsome, large 
Grape, with blue bloom. Bunch large, usually double¬ 
shouldered and compact. Its flesh is sweet to the 
center, but rather hard and pulpy. It is not highly 
flavored, but good, not foxy. Its skin is tough and it is 
a good shipper. It ripens with the Concord, but colors 
up much earlier. Inclined to overbear and should be 
pruned closely. 
CATAWBA, Red. (Wine Grape.) Commercial growers 
consider this the pick of the red Grapes. Last to ripen, 
it gives a long season of large, round berries, particu¬ 
larly sweet and sugary. They ripen to a dark, cop¬ 
pery tone, most attractive for selling or for serving. 
CONCORD, Black. An old favorite. Concord still main¬ 
tains its place as the most profitable crop Grape in 
the United States. Whether for market or home use. 
Concord should be the backbone of your planting. It 
is thrifty, productive and disease resistant. It matures 
early, keeps well, ships well, and always find ready 
sale. Big, wide shouldered bunches of bluish berries 
of sweet delicious flavor, unrivaled by any other va¬ 
riety. The Grape preferred for jam, jelly and conserve. 
DELAWARE, Red. Popular wine and table Grape. The 
standard of excellence. Bunch and berry medium, com¬ 
pact; flesh juicy, very sweet and refreshing. Ripens 
with or before Concord. Vines very hardy and produc¬ 
tive; a slow grower, requires rich soil, good culture 
and close pruning. Subject to mildew in poor grape 
sections and seasons. 
DUNKIRK. A new Grape that glorifies the popular Dela¬ 
ware. Bunches and berries similar to those of Dela¬ 
ware, but both are larger, and the crop ripens later 
and keeps longer. The skin is thin like that of Dela¬ 
ware, of the same color, but is tough enough to make 
the Grapes good shippers. The clusters are unusually 
uniform in shape and size, compact and well filled by 
the berries. The vine is vigorous, hardy, healthy, and 
productive.
