EOBEBT BECK, 



Secretary. 

 This year I was awarded by the State Society: 



For best sparkling wine First premium. 



For best exhibition of wine First premium. 



For best and greatest variety of wine grapes First premium. 



It is proper here to say, that by a very unfortunate mistake in the 

 entry of my wines this year, the age of the different kinds was not 

 marked on the bottles, and as a consequence they were excluded from 

 competition with the wines of the same age and kinds exhibited by 

 other parties.
