GRAPES 
There is real satisfaction in seeing 
your vineyards and orchards thrive 
and bear abundantly. With the aim of 
developing and propagating the best 
and most profitable varieties of grapes 
and other fruits, we offer the following 
list. Given ood care grapes bear well 
on almost any soil. They prefer a sandy 
or gravelly loam.

“Caco. Fruit very large in handsome 
complete bunches, a rich wine-red 
over amber, very large bearer. Its 
flavor is sweet and distinctive. Mid- 
season. 
‘Catawba. When fully ripe they are a 
large dark copper colored fruit, 
which requires a long season. Ripens 
in late fall. 
“Concord. The standard blue grape and 
probably the most extensively grown 
grape in the U. 8S. When fully ripe 
it is almost black. Ripens in early 
fall. 
“Delaware. The old fashioned small red 
dessert grape, but is unexcelled for 
flavor either of the grape or juice. 
Ripens early. 
-Fredonia. A new productive, very 
black grape, ripening with Portland. 
The bunch and berry are large with 
excellent flavor, and ripens about 
ten days ahead of Moore’s Early 
and is an excellent shipper as it does 
not crack. This grape fills a long- 
felt need. <A juicy, delicious black 
gvrape on a vigorous and productive 
vine. 
“Niagara. Clusters of large and hand- 
some pale yellow berries. It ripens 
with Concord and is the best white 
erape for the home market. 
~“SEEDLESS CONCORD 
A new grape that is fast proving a 
favorite with the home owner. Of high 
quality being unexcelled when eaten

Golden Muscat 
This comparatively new variety 
requires a season fully as long as 
Concord, but deserves a good 
trial wherever it has a _ possible 
chance to ripen. Valuable for 
home use and roadside market. 
The berries are large and meaty, 
having very few seeds, usually 
one or two, which are easily sep- 
arated from the pulp. It makes 
a large, pyramidal, compact, well- 
filled cluster.

HANDLING 
Receive your 
UPON ARRIVAL 
stock without delay 
and plant just as soon as_ possible. 
Plants received in freezing weather 
should not be opened until they have 
been put in a cool but frost proof cel- 
lar and gradually thawed out. The 
stock will not be injured if gradually 
thawed out in this way. 
Stock which seems somewhat dry 
upon opening should be buried in wet 
soil for a day or so. This will quickly 
liven the stems and make them ready 
for planting. Small bundles may be 
placed in tubs of water for the same 
results.
