This was the first place in the valley where phylloxera made its appearance. It has 

 been observed in this vineyard for three years past, but has been confined to two or three 

 small spots of about an acre all told. The remainder of the vineyard appears to be 

 healthy. Mr. Ellis has no idea as to how phylloxera got a foothold in his vineyard. He 

 says there has been no interchange of grape boxes with any infested orchard. His place 

 is across the river from Geyserville, in a belt of very rich country, entirely surrounded 

 by the Russian River and high hills or mountains. It is a thoroughly protected spot, so 

 far as contact with the outside world is concerned. At first the disease appeared out in 

 one spot, which has increased in size each year. The next season two other spots some 

 twenty rods distant were affected, a few vines dying at each. Mr. Ellis has put in a few 

 resistants, with which he is experimenting.
