hours which marked the passage Of the storm left

plentiful. the same fate. The vineyards along
Finger Lakes suffered severely the half ripened
punches being from the vines and the vines
themselves ripped from the stakes which they
were trained The farmers whose hopes were so
bright, smitten with dscouragement at the
completeness OF the catastrophe which has thus
fallen upon them. The shipping Lake Ontario
