The powers that be for this United
States government have ruled that
grape growers are prohibited from
squeezing their crop into juice and

the liquid brings from seven to ten
dollars the gallon. which is a tempta-
ton that few who buy the juice at
from $50 to $500 a gallon can re
sist. Another ruling is said to have
been made by government officials

a party and the buyer can then take
