Text Appearing Before Image:
Two to One. GRAPES CONCORD. The principal out-door grape grown for market in the Province of Ontario. Probably morethan half the vines in the Urge commercial vineyards of the Niagara district, as well as in Essexand other parts of southern (hitario are of this variety. The reason of this is (1) its comparative freedom from mildew, (2) its vigor of vine, (3) itsproductiveness. Four tons to the acre is not an uncommon yield, so that, even when it sells as lowas H cents per pound, there is yet a fair return for the investment. Still it is an open questionwhether in the near future it will not pay the grower better to plant varieties of higher qualitythat will bring a higher price, though they may be less productive.
