DR. L. GALL ON IMrROVEMENTS IN WINE-MAKING. 297 



od (repeated picking out of the grapes, assorting them, etc., and 

 "Gallizising" of the inferior balance) ; and Mr. Von Babo gives the 



proof that it may even be brought up to a twenty -fold one 



In regard to the produce of the vineyard "Salem:" Ilere, says 

 he, according to an average of the last fourteen years, the produce 

 of the vintage of one morgcn (f acres) is 9f ohm, and their price 

 17 florins 40 kreutzers. 



The average yearly income per 1 morgcn, therefore, were 167 fl. .'50 kr. 



The expenses per 1 morgcn (excluding interest on capital invested)... 91 " IB " 



The surplus per 1 morgcn consequently amounting to 70 fl. 35 kr. 



Or, counting the stock capital at 1800 florins per morgcn, and these at 



4 per cent, interest 72 "00 " 



A net gain resulted per morgen of 4 fl. 35 kr. 



Suppose now of the average yield of 9|- ohm of wine only 5 

 of the most inferior quality had to be "Gallizised," and thereby 

 their value increased by 7^ florins, consequently raised to 25 flor- 

 ins ; then we shall have the following calculation : 



After separating 5 ohm of the inferior quality, a price of 30 florins 

 Avould have been realized on an average per ohm, consequently, for 



4^ ohm 135 fl. 00 kr. 



And for 5 ohm Gallizised wine at 25 florins 125 " 00 " 



Total 260 fl. 00 kr. 



Deducting the expenses and interest on capital 163 " 15 " 



We would realize a net gain of each morgen of 96 fl. 45 kr. 



Consequently, 20 times more than by adopting the old-fashioned method.
