MY VINEYARD 
AT 
LAKEVIEW. 
A WESTERN GRAPE GROWER. 
"Twelve years have passed, 1 ' writes the author in 
the first chapter of this work, ''since I planted my first 
vine. I commenced under difficulties, and have met 
with some discouragements. But my labor and perse- 
verance have been well rewarded in the success which 
I have attained. To be sure, I might have reached the 
same results in half the time had I commenced with a 
better knowledge of my subject. Many errors into 
which I have fallen might have been avoided, and 
needless expenditures of time and money saved. In 
looking back upon my experience I can now see where 
better methods niiyht have been pursued. I can see 
wherein a little knowledge might have saved many 
losses and much discouragement. The information 
which would have enabled me to avoid these losses I 
believe I can now impart to others. Nothiug, it is 
true, can in any business take the place of experience; 
but we can frequently, when commencing a new enter- 
prise, so far avail ourselves of the experience of others 
as to materially affect the success which we may 
attain. Iu making this record of my experience I 
disclaim all efforts at fine writing. My only aim will 
be to give the facts in the case in the simplest and 
plainest language I can command."
