A supply of grapes is a good thing to
have in q family. In this climate the
early varieties begin to ripen about the
first of August and continue for about
four weeks. With judicious selection o1
varieties two or three dozen vines will
supply family six to eight weeks with
grapes. The cultivation of them is simple
and anyone can soon learn to prune anc
train them. Besides grapes for eating the
surplus may be made into vine, vinegar
Jelly or catsup. The latter article when
properly made is very fine. The time fol-
putting out vines is December.
