MILLS WRITES OF THE VALUABLE WORK OF PROFES- SORS WILEY AND RISING. Cresta Blanca Wines Receive a Mark- ing Equal to a Grand Prize. Southern Pacific Company, 29 Boulevard des Italiens, Paris, 14th Aug., 1900. The Hon. N. P. Chipman, President State Board of Trade, San Francisco, Cal. Dear Sir: Professor H. W. Wiley is the Chief Chemist of the Agricultural De- partment of the United States. He was a member of the Jury of Award of Class 60, which comprises viticultural products, and has acted most efficiently in the in- terests of the United States. The Jury of Award passed a resolution declaring that “all w 1d brandies of- ered for examinati ring arly label indicating a false description be excluded from examination or recompense, and the Director Ger su osition grounds. essor H. W. Wi- ey protested against this action upon the ground set forth in his letter, but in a moditied form the action was sustained, and the wines, bearing French labels were refused the right of competition. Subse- uently Professor Wiley secured a modi- | ication of this resolution which admitted the wines to mination and marking, which is another name for rating, buf that the markings or rating for such wines be deposited with the president of the jury for such further use as may be hereafter decided upon. This private marking and rating was subsequently ac- complished, and P or Wiley inform- ed me that the Blanca wines rated up to 18 on a s , and that if these wines had been admitted to competition the Cresta Blanca product would have ob- tained the grand prize. Professor Wiley further declared that Wines of Califor- nia were shown by these ratings to be excellent wine, there being but two brands of wines in France superior to the best brands of California. I call your atten- tion and the attention of the board to the existence of these ratings and to the fact that they are in_ the possession of the president of the Jury of Award. I will make an effort to have an official copy of them obtained and forwarded to . the board. The commercial value of these ratings will be readily understood. While, in my opinion, the wines will not recelva medals or recompense, the certified copy of the ratings by the jury would be of the highest commercial value, I beg to call the attention of the board to the fact that Professor Wiley, Chief Chemis. to the Department of Agricul- ture, and Professor Rising of the Univer- sity of California have placed the wine in- tercst in the State under special obliga- tion. For usefulness in these matters Professor Wiley has been insistent in de- fending our wines. In my opinion it would be well $o call the atfention of the Chamber of Commerce to the fact, which may be briefly outlined as follows: The Jury of Award, Exposition Univer- selle, Paris, 1900, declined to admit some of the California wines to competition with the wines of the world because they bore French labels. Subsequentl: same jury authorized irregular rat| these wines, which rating was filed with the president of the jury for such use as he might see fit to make, and for the use of the Superior Jury when final action was taken. Publication of these ratings, when they are obtained, will be of the hishest value to the wine product of Cali- ornia. 1 think a resolution of thanks to Pro- fessor Wiley and Professor Rising would not be inappropriate. It remains to be noted that the wines presented to the committee for examina- tion were not from the stock of the Cali- fornia Paris Commission; they were wines collected by the Department of Agricul- ture. The California Paris Commis- sion does not appear to have taken any part whatever in the transaction. Very truly yours, WM. H. MILLS.
