What is Wine Made OF?

AS wine merchants are petitioning the
French Government to put stop to the
manufacture of artificial wines, the Pc
titiOners asserting that not one-third of
che wine used in Paris is made of grapes,
the many Americans who turn up their
noses at the juice of our own grapes will
naturally wonder what the spurious
French wines are made of. An exchange
says that there are number of large fac
tories hear Paris III which wines are
made from rotten apples, damaged dried
fruits Of all kinds, beets and spoiled
molasses. But there are not enough of
these materials to make as much wine as
is required by foreign trade. Turnip
juice has been worked over into wine,
and American cider is the basis of mil
lions Of bottles of champagne, but good
app les and turnips are too costly to be
wasted on cheap wines, such as most
Americans buy. Some of the temper
ance societies might find the returns they
are after by satisfying public curiosity

the withdrawal Of Federal recognition

for the post Of Minister to England, but
