(Trade-Mark) Best red grape ever discovered. Until we introduced Stark 
Delicious, there was no red grape of superior quality that had also a 
strong healthy productive vine. Stark Delicious has become so popular 
that we have never been able to grow enough to supply the demand. 
Its color is so attractive, the bunch so large and handsome, the 
quality so delicious that it brings top prices on all markets, 
Greatest of All Red Grapes 
— Sold only By Stark Bro’s. 
From every standpoint Stark Delicious 
is the red grape supreme. It is delight- 
fully sweet and rich, comparing with 
Delaware in this respect, and has every 
good quality that a grape should have 
both in the vineyard, on the table and 
onthe market. Ripens just before Ca- 
tawba—early September here, at just 
the right time for the market. In our 
vineyards it is the youngest bearer— 
often bears on one year vines—a splen- 
did hardy, healthy vine with luxuriant 
foliage that hangs very late. For eating 
out of hand, for the table, for jelly, for 
grape juice, for the small town or city 
market—it is ideal. Eating, Jelly, 
Juice, Market. Introduced and sold 
ONLY by Stark Bro’s. NCS.

“‘Wallis Giant has the largest berry of any variety of American Grape that 
I am familiar with. The bunches are medium in size and well formed, 
and the mature fruit is most attractive looking—much like hothouse grapes. 
It is the Concord type and ripens about the same time as that variety. The . 
berries are juicy and of good flavor.’’ D. F. Jones, Sc. D. Gen., Conn. Exp. Station. Ge
