Il is interesting to find that in the vintages
Of 1885 the acid is in Eapa and SOnorna al
most throughout lower than in 1882, or
than the average of previous ylntages on
record in the Santa Clara valley. How
ever. Doyle's and Portals 1883 show an
average near TO that Of Gallegos' 1882, in
dicating that the causes that depressed this
factor to northward were less active here.
Similarly, Duquesnes and Denicke's vines

CONCLUSIONS.
The showing made by the above table in
respect to the wide differences caused by
locality ard climate in the composition OF
Zinfandel wines is sufficiently eloquent OF
the need of detailed and close observation,
in each region, of the prominent peculiar
ties, in order to adapt 10 them the proper
blends. If a certain proportion OF Mataro
or TrouSseau makes the most acceptable
blend in the Santa Clara and Liyermore
valleys, ii does not prove that the same VIII
be best in Napa and Fresno; the more rs
the other grape varieties are undoubtedly
similarly modified in the several localities.
It has been thought best 70 push through,
al once q full series Of examinations Of one
Of the most widely ditfused grape varieties,
in order to show the importance OF the re-
suits that may be thus obtained since the
material on hand does not allow Of such
extensive comparisons in the case Of any
other grape Several smaller but neverthe-
less very important series OF samples are
in progress of examination, and their
analyses will be published as fast as their
completion may render it profitable. The

that during the coming vintage many will

and yet the future importance of that
region in grape growing can hardly be a

of the latter appear two others Nos. and

both alike showing markedly heavier

Talcoa vineyard. Whether No. - grew on
low land in the same locality Is not on
record bat seems probable.
No. II, from MIR. Scheffier' vineyard near
ST. Helena, shows an abnormally heavy
body for the latitude, though in other re-
spects it docs not differ markedly from
other wines of the same region. The
anomaly may be traceable to some pecu-
harity in its treatment or location.
Passing southwark, we find q remark
able agreement in the Hinfandels Of the
Santa Clara valley, Nos Is, IS, II and Is,
those from Mission San Jose, west San Jose
and Cupertino creek alike coming within a
trife of three per cent. of solid contents.
AS none of these wines contain any I'M
fcrmented sugar, the indication that in this
region the Zinfandcl yields too heavy q
body for claret proper seems quite definite;
and il is not little remarkable that
regiOn SO near the coast should IN this re
spect stand next to Fresno, an interior
region Of steady high summer temperature.
As regards the latter, Rjchber's wine (No.

heavy-bodicd wines from that region, while
Denickc's 1882 go. 22) stands between
these and Eisen's (No. 49,, in which the

preaching the posi- BE maximum, at Fres-
no, next highest in the Santa Clara valley

at Santa Rosa and Cl0yerdele. The great
variation in the three Glen Ellen vintages
Nos 4, and O. is quite remarkable, and
50 far as that of 1888 No. g. is concerned,
