Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Muscadine Grapes During the last decade a general industrial and agricultural awak ening has been in progress in the South Atlantic and Gulf States. Rapid advancement has been made along many lines. Commercial and manufacturing industries are making their appearance on all sides and great strides have also been made in agricultural develop ment. The existing labor and other conditions render urgent the development of more varied agricultural pursuits and also demand that other lines besides those commonly followed be taken up. The destruction of the forests as a result of the turpentine and lumber industries calls for the utilization of the denuded lands, and there is thus abundant Opportunity for agricultural undertakings. The horticultural development of this, as of all other sections, depends to a very great extent upon the native fruits of the region. The South-is rich in native fruits, but even among the most impor tant of these none are more promising, none will adjust themselves so well to the diverse conditions, none will yield fruit for which there are so many uses or for which such large returns for time and means expended are received as the Muscadine grapes. The purpose of this bulletin is to give some glimpses of the past and present condition of the Muscadine grape industry, to call attention to some of its possibilities, and to indicate the important problems in the industry that require Solution. It is intended as a report of the viticultural investigations of the Bureau of Plant Indus; try in Muscadine regions from 1905 to 1911, including both a discus sion of the results already accomplished and a description of the important researches that are under way.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grapes of Wrath The readers of Boyd Cable's "Between the Lines," "Action Front," and "Doing Their Bit," have very naturally had their curiosity excited as to an author who, previously unheard of, has suddenly become the foremost word-painter of active fighting at the present day, and the greatest "literary discovery" of the War. Boyd Cable is primarily a man of action; and for half of his not very long life he has been doing things instead of writing them. At the age of twenty he joined a corps of Scouts in the Boer War, and saw plenty of fighting in South Africa. After the close of that war, his life consisted largely of traveling in Great Britain and the principal countries of Europe and the Mediterranean, his choice always leading him from the beaten track.

Download or read book Beverages Past and Present Vol 2 of 2 written by Edward R. Emerson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beverages, Past and Present, Vol. 2 of 2: An Historical Sketch of Their Production, Together With a Study of the Customs Connected With Their Use Any old bottle - medicine and ink ones predominated would have answered the purpose, and second-hand corks were almost a luxury, for pieces of com-stalk and wads of paper were mainly used for this purpose. The vintage is a most indifferent affair in this country: no care is taken to separate the various kinds of grapes, and as for sorting the ripe from the unripe and the good from the bad, such a thing was never thought of, for they say the fermentation will rectify all these conditions and what is the use of doing a lot of unnecessary work? In other countries this contention has been proven to be wrong, but in Tran sylvania the results seem to prove the assertion and bear the practice out. In fact, everything about the vintage is imperfectly manipulated, and yet the result is almost perfection; perhaps it is the element of climate that has much to do towards this condition of affairs. There may be, and undoubtedly is, some thing in the atmosphere that has a corrective tendency and makes the fermentation period a most powerful agency. The soil on these mountain-sides too is almost ideal for the grape, being composed of sand and marl, and consequently any variety quickly becomes ao climated or established. There are fourteen species of grape indigenous to the country; that is to say, which have been for centuries acclimatised here. Amongst them are five sorts of muscadine grape; but these, though most highly valued for the table, produce inferior wine. The most prized by the wine-growers is one with a small berry, called Maiden Grape (avi cella m'iida) which produces an incomparable wine.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Grape From a Thorn IT has come to the knowledge of the author of A Grape from a Thorn that some pain has been given to the friends of the late Count d'albam'e from the impression they have been under that he was the original of a certain personage pourtrayed in the novel. This is altogether a misconception the author did not know the Count even by sight, nor, so far as he is aware, had that gentleman any feature of character in common with the Mr. Edwards of the story. Moreover, lest the very misapprehension should arise which has taken place, and which he sincerely deplores, the author was careful to point out (page 210) that others besides the Count have claimed to be the last of the Stuarts, and that Mr. Edwards was one of them.

Download or read book The Wild Vine written by Todd Kliman and published by Crown. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rich romp through untold American history featuring fabulous characters, The Wild Vine is the tale of a little-known American grape that rocked the fine-wine world of the nineteenth century and is poised to do so again today. Author Todd Kliman sets out on an epic quest to unravel the mystery behind Norton, a grape used to make a Missouri wine that claimed a prestigious gold medal at an international exhibition in Vienna in 1873. At a time when the vineyards of France were being ravaged by phylloxera, this grape seemed to promise a bright future for a truly American brand of wine-making, earthy and wild. And then Norton all but vanished. What happened? The narrative begins more than a hundred years before California wines were thought to have put America on the map as a wine-making nation and weaves together the lives of a fascinating cast of renegades. We encounter the suicidal Dr. Daniel Norton, tinkering in his experimental garden in 1820s Richmond, Virginia. Half on purpose and half by chance, he creates a hybrid grape that can withstand the harsh New World climate and produce good, drinkable wine, thus succeeding where so many others had failed so fantastically before, from the Jamestown colonists to Thomas Jefferson himself. Thanks to an influential Long Island, New York, seed catalog, the grape moves west, where it is picked up in Missouri by German immigrants who craft the historic 1873 bottling. Prohibition sees these vineyards burned to the ground by government order, but bootleggers keep the grape alive in hidden backwoods plots. Generations later, retired Air Force pilot Dennis Horton, who grew up playing in the abandoned wine caves of the very winery that produced the 1873 Norton, brings cuttings of the grape back home to Virginia. Here, dot-com-millionaire-turned-vintner Jenni McCloud, on an improbable journey of her own, becomes Norton’s ultimate champion, deciding, against all odds, to stake her entire reputation on the outsider grape. Brilliant and provocative, The Wild Vine shares with readers a great American secret, resuscitating the Norton grape and its elusive, inky drink and forever changing the way we look at wine, America, and long-cherished notions of identity and reinvention.
