PENNSYLVANIA WINE.
Peasants Treading the Grapes in the Ole
STYLE of Classic Days.

Peasants Treading the Grapes in the Old
STYLE of Classic Days.
Across the fields, from every direc-
ton, crept the ox-teams, followed by
groups of peasants. Already in the
wine-gardens the work had begun; the
unyol1ed oxen lay in the pleasant shade
carts, with the wine-casks set in them,
were drawn up here and there in lit
tie open space; the white figures went
to and fro among the vines, there was
a buzz of voices from every side, and
now and then snatches of song. Up and
down the broad alleyways through the
vineyards we strayed, the sun burning
us with fiercer heat as it rose higher
and higher, the warmth and the scents
of summer everywhere on the busy hill
side. At each vineyard we were laden
with fresh burden of grapes, and we
ate them as we went, finging bunch
after bunch to the begging gypsy chill
dren who romped at our heels. Long
before noon a man with loose white
trousers rolled high above his knees
was jumping in every wine-cask, the
Juice in rich reddish streams falling
into the buckets set below. At noon
the smoke from many complexities rose
above the vines, and mingling with the
sweet scents of summer was the smell
of the midday gulyas
AS we passed the large vineyards we
saw in each little white house of the
guardian banquet spread, and around
the table one of the gypsy bands from
the hotel of the town stood playing.
But at the smaller vineyards the cloth
was laid on the grass, or on table un-
der rude shed, and here Romantics in
peasant dress from the near villages
were fddling away under the trees,
while men, pressing the grapes in the
casks, danced wildly to the music,
throwing their brown, grape-stained
arms above their heads, every now and
then mad. couple twirling round and
round on the smooth grass; smiling
Wallachs were begging US to taste the
new wine; even the children in the
nuns garden were pirouetting and
singing, while the blaclz-robed sisters
and the priest in the cassock chail<ed
up on the cask the number of buckets
emptied into it.
In Tuscany, when we went to the
vintage, the peasants pressed the wines
inside dark, gloomy cellars; in Prov
ence, the land of ''sun burnt mirth, " the
grapes were crushed by steam in brand
new buildings with all the latest mod
ern improvements. It was only in
Pennsylvania that we found the peas
ants dancing in the old glad, free fash
ion of classic days, out in the sunshine,
to the sound of music.
The sun was setting when we saw the
long white line again moving across
the fields to the town opposite. with
the cathedral-crowned fortress tower
! ing above it, and far away on each side
toward neighboring villages The
| light was fading when we started after
them, and stalking through the stub
BILE came the black line of the gypsy
bands, in each one man with his bass
viol held over his shoulder like some
strange, mystic banner. They played
in the hotel restaurant that evening,
when the town was gay with the gaiety
of an abundant vintage,

to the dairymen. These are Congress

to the dairymen. These are Congress-
and ex-Congressman Caswell, who
lives in Fort Atkinson, and for several
years represented the old First dis
trict in congress. Governor Hoard
says that these two men were the
champions of the dairymen in con-
gress, and the dairymen know that
they can be trusted to look after and
protect this great interest.
The values of the lands in the dairy
sections of the state have been in
creased. The sales of real estate in
Jefferson county averaged $41 per
acre in 1890, whereas in Dane county
at the same time better lands sold
for an average of 500 SO per acre, be-
cause they were devoted to ordinary
farming and could not be mades so pro-
ductive as the dairy farms.
Governor Hoard says that the sales
of real estate in Jefferson county in
1898 averaged 500 per acre. The
increase of fertility of the soil in the
dairy sections had been such that it
sustains double the number of COWS
per acre that it did IN 1870. This
business has also improved the stock
Of the state. In 1870 the farmers of
Wisconsin had only nondescript ma
tive COWS, whose earning power was
not one-half that of the dairy COWS Of
to-day. The farmers had no dairy
judgment, no knowledge relating to
butter and cheese. Now they have
abundance of improved dairy breeds
and grades from them.
