GRAPES 
American Varieties 
The American varieties of Grapes are very hardy and need no 
special winter protection in most localities. Especially suitable 
for covering fences or arbors; splendid for juices and jellies, as 
well as eaten fresh. 
Caco. The new red Grape. Of exceptional merit. Earlier than 
Concord. Wine-red, compact bunch, good size, hardy, thrifty 
grower. Good arbor variety. See colored illustration. 
Concord. The old, unsurpassed “slipskin” variety, too well 
known to need a recommendation. Succeeds everywhere 
grapes grow. Good arbor variety. See colored illustration. 
Fredonia. This new blue-black Grape was originated and thor- 
oughly tested by the New York Experiment Station. Ripens 
15 days before Concord. Very large berries on compact 
bunches; spicy, sweet flavor and fragrant. Vines are hardy, 
thrifty, and heavy producers. See colored illustration. 
Golden Muscat. Our choicest golden amber-white Grape for 
your fancy desserts and wines. Large, somewhat oblong ber- 
ries in large, compact bunches. Rich, sweet, mellow, aromatic 
Muscat flavor. Wonderful keeper, shipper and _ producer. 
Ripens late. See colored illustration. Do not confuse this 
variety with the Muscat of Alexander. 

OEIC © Portland. Earliest of varieties to ripen. Produces a large, 
pee white fruit with spicy and luscious flavor. A very hardy, pop- 
Grape ular, money-making variety. Usually ripens a few days ahead 
of Fredonia. The amber-white color of the fruit makes it one 
of the most popular Grape varieties. 
European Varieties 
Distinguished by the solid, firm, crisp berry, with 
skin adhering to pulp. Not as hardy as the American 
varieties. Need some protection in colder sections. 
Black Prince (Rose of Peru). Very large, oval, firm, 
crackling flesh. 
‘Casaba. The hardiest European Grape known, having 
stood 32 degrees below zero without injury. Earliest 
of all to ripen, almost seedless, with a delicate Muscat 
flavor, white color, heavy bearer. 
Muscat of Alexander. Large, long, somewhat loose 
bunch; berries elongated, slightly oval, amber color 
when ripe; flesh firm and brittle, sweet, rich, sugary. 
Used largely for raisins. September. 
Thompson Seedless. The best known seedless Grape; 
widely planted for raisins, market and home fruit as 
well. Large bunch of rather small, amber-yellow ber- 
ries; sweet and mild. 
Tokay. Very large bunch and berry, thick skin, pale 
red covered with bloom; firm, sweet flesh. An old 
standard table variety. October.
