Umpqua Valley Peculiarly Adapted to
the Industry,
The following letter, though quite
lengthy, is well worth reudlug, and
contains considerable interesting in
formation about an industry, that
might grow to considerable nropor
iuns in Douglas county, it explains
itself.
O. P. Schlosser Manager Roseburg
Commercial Club, Roseburg, Ore-
gon. Dear Sir.
Thunklng you for your kind In
formation of August 2, will sny that
I am a vineyard and wine expert from
Germany, with 5 years experience In
California 1 traveled in 1907 more
than six months to spy out the best
lands suitable for foreign wine grape
culture In the Interests of au Alaskan
millionaire. My trips were success
ful and more than satisfactory, but
the financial crisis at the close of
1907 brought the enterprise to a
standstill, and the establishment of
the vineynrds, wineries and grape
juice piums, eic, naa 10 ue auau
doned.
I am thoroughly convinced that the
quality of suitable wine and table
grapes to be cultivated especially on
the high hills, protected uetitly
southerly sloping lands bordering to
the north bank of the Umpqua river
between Glide and Winchester, or
an about Cleveland .would be enor
mously profitable and successful In
a comparatively short time, that It
could easily take the lead In all olher
fruit varitles and by expert treat
ment In the vineyards, time- ofhar
vesting and in winery and cellar. It
would achieve a world wide Tame.
The suitable grape varieties known
to me, to be grown on the Umpqua
river would be ' far ahead of the
California product for wine making.
The European comiolssuer and every
one else with the sence of tnste nuil
one else with the sense of tnste ond
rorniu pure wines taste and smell
more or less of vinegar, because at
Ihe maturing and harvesting time or
the wine grape It Is still very warm
in most of the Califoinlnn dry wine
grape districts, so that the mashed
grupes or grape elder Immediately
starts to ferment in the open air.
rapidly causing vinegar fungus, he
fore putting Into tanks, into which
large quantities or mashed grapes--cannot
be sufficiently shut off. from
the air during the eight to four
teen days in fermentation. The
fermentation of Ihe grape cider, also
the storing of the older wines In Cal
ifornia Is done mostly on the ground
floor In cheaply constructed sheds
instead of underground cellars of
even temperature, like in Germany,
where quality wines were produced
that brought prices up to (10.000
for 300 gallons. The buyers of these
choice wines reside largely In New
York. Moston, Chicago, also In Ber
lin, Bremen, Wlen, London, Paris,
etc.
During my five years slay In Cali
fornia I became thoroughly acquaint
ed with the cultivation or wine and
table grapes, wineries and cellars,
and can make comparison with the
world famous wine cellars, guarded
by the most severe laws, on the Mos
elle, the Main, the Rhine, and In
the Pfalz, where I was born, lived
forty years, and gained my exper
ience. I soon found the warm cli
mate of California unfavorable dur
ing the wine harvesting, and the
cause of the vinegar taste and smell,
and the high pre cent of alcohol. It
occurred lo me that more northern
states, about the same latitude and
elevation as the famous wine grow
ing districts of Germany and France
would be better adapted to grape
culture.
I have studied thoroughly the IT.
S. weather reportB from Oregon.
Washington and Idaho during the
last 4 years, and find that certain
districts in the states, on account of
elevation, water courses, quality of
soil, slope, rainfall, temperature and
sunny dnys, nre without question
better adapted to grape culture tlmn
Is California with Its too warm cli
mate. Most of the south alopehtiuls.
especially on the North Fork of the
Umpqua wilt rival the best grape
districts In France and Germany.
This Is an enormously profltuhle en
terprise which can be taken and
utilized without risk, and with cam
paratlvely little capital. I would like
to organize a company in order to
utilize the enormous profits thnt are
so cheaply offered, Roseburg and
Douglus county can be made famous
and one of the wealthiest counties In
the United States. Will he very glad
to answer any questions asked by any
interested person, and hopes to hear
from yon.
Your verv trnlv.
