LOVETT'S NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N. J.—GRAPES 57 Standard Varieties of GRAPES The Pick of the Choicest! BRIGHTON—Until the introduction of Caco, this was regarded as the highest in quality of all hardy grapes. The medium- sized berries are wine-red, and the bunches run somewhat larger than those of Caco. Ripens in midseason. 2 years, each. 50c.; dozen, $5.00. CHAMPAGNE—Exception- ally prolific in amber colored clusters of sweet, sugary grapes, ideal for wine or grape-juice, and a good table variety. Of iron-clad consti- \ tution, very disease-resistant, and has never been known to winterkill. Price, 2 years, each, 75c.; dozen, $7.50; 100, $50 00. Heavy fruiting age vines, each, $1.50; dozen, $15.00. CONCORD—Best known and most popular variety in Amer- ica. It succeeds practically every- where. Its large black berries are borne in large bunches and, being covered with a decided bloom, they are of most attrac- tive appearance. Of good quality. 2 years, each, 25c.; dozen, $2.50; 100, $12.00; 1,000, $95.00. Heavy fruiting age vines, each, 75c.; dozen, $7.50. (See illustration on this page.) DELAWARE —An old-time red variety. Bunch and berry small, refined, high quality. Prolific, but a rather weak grower and some- what subject to mildew. 2 years, each, 50c.; dozen, $5.00. DIAMOND (Moore's)—Bunches large and compact. Berry large, greenish white, juicy and of good quahty. A vigorous grower and prolific. Ripens early. 2 years, each, 50c.; dozen, $5.00. Heavy fruiting age vines, each, $1.00; dozen, $10.00.

One Hundred Days of Perfect Grapes and How to Have Them The desire to enjoy a liberal supply of lus- cious grapes over a long period of time is easily gratified if you choose sorts maturing in suc- cession. Of course, all grapes ripen during late summer or fall, but some come earlier than others and most late sorts vary as far as keep- ing qualities are concerned. Therefore, we offer to solve for you herewith the problem of "Grapes over a Long Season," by means of the LOVETT HOME ARBOR SELECTION 2 CACO 2 CONCORD 2 MOORE'S EARLY 2 DIAMOND 2 CHAMPAGNE 2 strong, 2=year=old vines of each of these 5 sorts for $5.00, or 10 fruiting age vines (2 of each sort) for $10.00.
