his lour year old Pert se as te bilng it within
the ruaehef the poorer families who need a
pure and rich wine for medicinal purposes.
Mr. Speer's mode et fermenting and keeping
his w inc differs from the usual methods. This
is the reason why it is se much superior in
quality; but it requites four years' manage
ment and change et temperature in order te
make such a perfect line wine as this is; the
knowledge of changing te various tempera
tures ut dificrcnt timws, and at tlm right time,
is where he has the advantage of getting se
rich a wine without the use of liquor. Large
quantities of Speer's Pert Grape Wine have
been ordered te Seuth America, and even te

as superior te most Kuiepean wines. It is
