Among those who were not acqualnted | with the situation there was anxiety as to the safety of the latter part of the vintage when the recent unprecedented £torm swept over the State. In ordinary years the downpour would have done & great deal of damage, but fortunately on this occasion the producers were prepared for such a visitation and instead of the storm being a detriment it will in some cases doubtless prove a benefit. In speak- | Ing of the situation vesterday Secretary Hotchkiss of the California Wine Makers' Corporation said: | "I don’t think the storm has | particular injury done any to the wine grapes, for | the reason that in most districts the vint- | age was practicaily Chis was the |c in Sonoma and Napa, while in Santa | Clara the grapes still ungathered are of | varieties that will not suffer from the | wetting. In any event they would be all | right for distillation if gathered at once. “In the Warm Springs section 1 believe | there is still considerable of the -crop on ‘}lhl‘ vines. However, they are zinfandels, high in sugar strength, and the moisture | will probably add to their productiv Of course, if the storm shnulJ continue | cold and dampness prevail it would be necessary to handle the remainder of the crop In short crder. Taking everything into consideration, the wine men have every reason to be thankful that the heavy rain did not come sooner.” At the present time the industry is in | better condition as to prices prospects than it has = been in many years. The steadily grow- ing demand for California wines, the gradual falling off in production and the iberal offer of Henry J. Crocker to buy all the dry wine grapes in the State for term of seven yvears have tended to estab- lish a certain fixed v: | products, and as a result the producer and merchant will fare | | r’t‘ur The only cloud overshadowing th ndustry at theé present time is the steady and destructive advance of the ph era, but good prices will eventually cause the replanting of vineyards with resistant stock and bring the product up to the future demd University Extension Lecture.

Basis of Representation for the Joint Body of Wholesalers and Manu- facturers on the Coast Has Been Fixed. It is probable that steps will be taken within the next few days to bring about a | permanent organization of the whole- | salers, jobbers and manufacturers of the | | Pacific Coast. Yesterday a committee of the Pacific Coast Traffic Association met in Los Angeies with an organization of the wholesalers and jobbers of the south- ern city, formed during the present week, | The necessity for the Pacific Coast to act | as a unit in matters concerning the trans- | portation of overland freights and the control of trade territory resulted In the sending of a delegation from this city to | Portland, Tacoma and Seattle recently. | That delegation fully accomplished what | was expected of it, and the report of the proceedings in the Northwest has been | approved by the executive committee of the Traffic Association. | "The organization formed at Los Angeles | will undoubtedly work In harmony with | the wholesalers and jobbers of San Fran- cisco, Tacoma. Portland and Seattle. A basis of the permanent organization | has been fixed and has been adopted by the northwestern wholesalers and Job- bers. For every ten subscribers each elty | will_be permitted to send one delegate to the meeting to be held in this city. Then the delegates will finally settle ali matters relating to the plan of action. | " The present Traffic Association was nec- | essarily made temporary, for there were no delegates from road st Youth’s Directory Fair.
