GERMAN VINEYARDS DAMAGED.
Wine as Result May Be Far Below
Standard.
Foreign Correspondence of The star.

fOrelSn correspondence OF
BERLIN. November l. 1872.
The German vineyards have been visit
ed with severe frosts, and the hope OF a
good vintage has be en- destroyed. Near
ly everywhere the vine leaves have been
destroyed. and the grapes injured by the
frost must now be picked before they
are completely ripe. This is great blow
to the vine-growers. who, il they had
good harvest last year. lost heavily in
the two previous years.
The question now arises how FAR the
law of 1903 against adulteration will al
low the addition of sugar and other sub
stances for the improvement OF the wine
this year. The law Of 1909 laid 1t down
that grapes were only to be grown for
the manufacture of wine on soil that
produced drinkable wine without any
artificial Improvement in normal years.
In Dad seasons artificial sweetening
may only be employed to bring the wine
up to the standard of ordinary years.
10 doubt the artificial sweetening of the
wine was carried too far. But the Ger
man growers and the public are asking
at present IL this law cannot be amend
ed. for IL considerable more than the
average amount of sugar used in indiffer-
ent seasons is not allowed, the wine of
1912 will cause every one who drinks 1t
to pull very sour face. indeed.

were Cancelled The President was in the

upon his message to Congress and attend
ing to lot of personal correspondence.
The Presidents equity right ankle was

lieve that he should not enter too vlgor-
ously into the work OF the executive onces
until he recuperates Mrs. Taft Is now
at home with the President.
1t is singular that the mail of the W mite
House is heavier than it was before the
election and that a great deal of it Is per-
sonal to the President, requiring his at
tention and signature to letters. 1t Is not
disagreeable work, either, because there
are thousands of letters from the most
influential business men of the country
eulogizing the President upon the dignlfied
attitude he took in the campaign and tell
ing him that he is a bigger man now than
he was before the election. The letters, or
which there are said to be thousands. are
not worded In spirit of sympathy or
