tricts which have not shared in the general
Improvement, and in which, as it is safe to
assume, the ravages of that redoubtable
vine pest, the phylloxera vastatrix, are still
uncurbed.
The greatest improvement is shown in the
vineyards on the Mediterranean, which are
noted for the great body and richness in
alcohol of their wines, much used for
offending" with the lighter products of
the Bordelais and of the central districts of
France; and it will perhaps be as well not
to inquire too curiously into the destiny of
these growJhs before they reach the lips of
the consumer. 1t does seem, however, that
there is fair chance of the supply of pure
wine from France being less restricted than
1t has been of late years; for, while there
has, as explained above, been a great in
crease during the last two years in the
quantity made, there has been a CORE
spending decrease in the manufacture of
the liquids made from raisins and ingredi-
ents other than the plain juice of the grape.
1t may also be regarded as q good sign
that while the imports of wine into France
from Spain, Italy and other countries
which grow more than they can consume
had grown from six to over two hundred
millions, they have for the last three or
four years been reduced to something like
third of the latter total, though, upon
the other hand, there has not been cor
responding rise in the exports.
