Grapes 
BETA GRAPE— 
A heavy, annual bearer, hardy as the wild 
grape. Medium size black fruit of extra good 
‘quality for juice and jelly, and ripens so early 
that it can be grown far north. The Beta 
withstands our severe northern winters with- 
out protection. They may be grown on fences, 
over a building, or in a windmill tower and 
should bear heavily every year. 
PRICES OF GRAPE VINES 
2 yr., 50c; 6 for $2.50. 
Rhubarb 
MAC DONALD— 
MacDonald is very highly colored, attrac- 
tive, red stalk, of large size, productive, very 
tender and succulent, and of excellent quality, 
and particularly valuable for pies and desserts. 
Its color, when cooked without peeling, is as 
attractive as that of the raspberries. 
RUBY RED— 
Another new Red Rhubarb introduced 
from Canada. The stalks are intensely red 
as the name implies—even the inside of the 
stalk is red. Rhubarb sauce made from Ruby 
is as red as strawberry sauce. The skin is so 
tender it can be cooked with the stalk. Both 
Ruby and MacDonald are money-makers on 
the market because they sell on sight at a 
premium over common Rhubarb. Price, strong 
divisions, MacDonald and Ruby, 60c each; 
3 for $1.50. 
NEW CHIPMAN’S CANADA RED— 
One of the best of the new improved 
varieties. Very sweet, tender, of fine flavor, 
with extra-large stalks, bright red all the way 
through, the red color extending even to the 
mid-rib of the leaf. Does not lose its bright 
color in cooking, and both sauce and pies 
are an appetizing cherry-red color. Chipman’s 
is vigorous in growth, of the hardy, everbearing 
type, and does not make seed. Supply of 
roots limited. Price, 70c each; 2 for $1.30. 
PEAT 
FOR LAWNS AND GARDENS 
Moss Peat mixed with sandy soil enables 
it to retain moisture, or if incorporated into a 
heavy clay soil will prevent it from becoming 
too sticky when wet or from baking brick-like 
during dry weather. A mulching on the sur- 
face holds the moisture in the soil and pre- 
vents injury to the roots from drought or 
severe freezing. 
We have Moss Peat in the granulated form, 
in large bales at $4.25, or in any smaller 
quantity. ,; | 
FREDONIA— 
The new outstanding, early black Grape. 
Fredonia is the earliest good black Grape. The 
vine is vigorous and productive and ripens its 
fruit 3 weeks earlier than Concord. Fruit is 
large, sweet and of good quality. 
W ORDEN— 
A large, sweet and fine flavored grape. A 
fine dessert grape but needs winter protection. 

Asparagus 
A little space in the garden will grow all 
the asparagus you need. Plant the roots in 
deep rich soil, the crowns about four inches 
below the surface. Use plenty of manure and 
keep out the quack grass and a patch will last 
many years. 
PARADISE— 
Produces a normal crop one year earlier 
than any other variety. Growers who have 
seen this Asparagus growing have been amazed 
to see the straight, crisp large stalks that were 
produced from plants set only the year before. 
An exceptionally strong, vigorous producer. 
Because it brings returns one year earlier than 
other varieties and because of its great size, 
large crop and fine, mild flavor, this NEW 
variety will quickly supersede all others on 
the market for home-garden use, commercial 
production and shippers. .
