It is also proposed that by the co-opera- tion of grapegrowers, wineries, sugar factories, and canneries in the state the wineries purchase the grapes dur- ing the vintage of 1919, extract and 50,000,00 gallons of juice, the stor larger sugar factories receive thie juice during the spring and summer. concentrate it, and ship the syrup to the canneries for utilization in 1920 By using the major part of this syrup in the proportion of 25 per cent to 50 per cent with sugar in most of the canning, and entirely with some fruits, the quality of their product would be in now. way lowered. Regarding. the marketing of the grape syrup, the bulletin has the fol- lowing to say: “It would doubtless be impossible to market this large quantity of a new product so quickly without some assistance or encour- agement from the government. A regulation allowing the free purchase of grape syrup while limiting the purchase of cane syrup or sugar and permitting the purchase of sugar for canning only when accompanied by « certain proportion of grape syrur would dispose ‘of the whole crop. As grape syrup, made by the processes described in the bulletin, has been shown to be wholesome and attract- ive, such a regulation would work no hardship to consumer or manufac- turer and would result in saving z large quantity of food material, It would also safeguard the livelihood of hundréds of families,” HATES PARK WILL SEE.
