A Notable Industry.

lHE MANUFACrURE OF FLAV0RIN0 EX.
TRACTS, ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER,
OF P. RIEGER & Co.
At 51I Front street, San Francisco, is the
establishment of Paul Rieger. the industry
carried on in which, though unpretending,
is but the nucleus OF what will be 10 the days
TO come great industry. Five years ago Mr..
Rieger, who had been brought up as q practi.
cal chemist, and who was in the drug business
for many years, conceived the idea Of manu-
featuring the Flayoring Extracts that pre-
viOusly were most commonly imported. The
amount Of these extracts used would hardly
be credited by one not In the business, so
that there was good field for the enterprise
of this gentleman.
THE LEADING ARTICLES
Manufactured by him are Extracts Of Lemon,
Vanilla, Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Gloves, Rose,
Bitter Almonds, Strawberry, Raspberry, Pine
apple, etc, Sugar OF Lemon and Treble Pure
Extra Extract Of Jamaica Ginger. These are
all distilled on the premises under the per-
sonal supervision OF Mr.. Rieger himself, and
are consequently of the purest kind; his
best which are called Treble Extra, are
equal II not superior 10 any ever imported
They are put up in five different sizes In bot
ties containing from two ounces TO pintand
are OF two different degrees Of strength. The
Concentrated Extracts have been long and
the Concentrated has blue background,
while that Of the Treble has a red one The
Treble Extracts, though Of more recent in
PRODUCTION, are from their superior merit
making their way quite rapidly. They are
very superior, and must soon take the place
Of everything not Of home manufacture.
IThey are three times as strong as the Con-
centrated Extracts, and, Of course, cost as
much again as the Concentrated. The
LEMON SUGAR
Manufactured by this gentleman is the equal
Of anything in the line that we have ever
seen, and it is the best made on the coast all
others having been previously imported. It
is made from the pure fruit, and Ii Is allowed
by all who have seen 1t TO be equal to any,
thing ever introduced into the market Dur
ing the past month he has sold very large
amount OF it.
The Treble Flavor Extra-his best-are
fully equal to the famous ones OF which there
has so long been monopoly. He COM
menced with few gallons at time, but now
makes five to ten barrels per month. Mr.
Rieger was down In Mexico four months ago,
and made arrangements to obtain regular
supplies of the Mexican Vanilla Bean, which
is the best In thesWOrld.

city. And while speaking of 1t we must not
forget TO mention the very snowy label which
has cost him large amount Of money. The
merits Of the article are beginning to be
well known and recognized, and for the null
tifarious uses " which Ginger is put is evil
IDENTIFY one of the very best articles ever sold
in this market That we are guilty of no ex-
aggeration in this matter will be admitted
when we say that personal examination of
Mr.. Rieget's sales book showed US that ali
the leading grocery and liquor houses Of the
city were purchasers In ten to twenty-five
gross lots at a time. Besides the special
articles mentioned above, this gentleman
puts up Bay Rum, Eastern Castor Oil OF the
purest quality; Epson Salts, Commercial
Cream Tartar, Strictly Pure Cream Tartar;
Seidlitz Powders, according TO the formula Of
the United States PhaFmacopeia; Lime
Juice, strictly pure; Bi-carb Soda, and Sal
eratus, and many other articles Of general
consumption, Mr.. Rieger has had several
good friends in the country who helped him
to introduce his Extracts to the trade, and to
whom he is particularly grateful, but he
wishes 1t to be distinctly understood that he
sells only to the wholesale city trade in fut-
