THE GRAPE JUICE INDUSTRY 1271 



of unfermented juice enjoyed a steady advance each year, and 

 culminated in the record production in 1914 of about 1,400,000 

 pi 11 mis over that of 1911. The output of unfermented juice in 

 1914 was nearly five times as great as the amount of wine pro- 

 duced in the belt that same season. 



In fifteen years the making of unfermented juice has grown 

 from an almost negligible factor to a commanding position in 

 the Chautauqua belt. Of still greater moment, it has bridged 

 over the crisis arising from the big falling off in the demand for 

 small-basket or table grapes, and has been the determining 

 influence in the maintenance of good prices to the growers.
