♦ ♦I O Continued From |t llO» O Page One || GRAPE CROP j* *vail as in this district, which extends from Vermilion and Dover, along’ the Lake Erie shore west, and includes the Lake Erie islands.Th. harvest will begin in earnest in this district the fore part of next week and, from indications today, prices will be higher than in other recent years.The Sandusky section crop will be “short”.Better prices, the grapegrowers declare, will be a boon to Sandusky and » the islands.In the past., due to low prices, they say, many of the larger growers of grapes were driven into the wine business by reasdn of the fact that there was no market for their grapes.Island values are most valuable in lt;g rap e-growing—especially In Delaware and Catawba growing.The offerings of Sandusky Wineries, Inc., reflects a recognition of high grade grapes grown over a limited area, hence the demand and the prices.K. K. Culver, Columbtus, head of Sandusky Wineries, Inc., is little known in the wine business in Sandusky, probably because he came to Sandusky unannounced, without a request for assistance of any kind, and opened up the long closed plant of the old Bass Island Vineyards Co., at Campbell-st. and the New York Ry„ converting it into what wine men say is one of the finest wineries in northernOhio.Mr. * Culver has surrounded himself with a highly capable staff which includes Anatole Royer, one of SanduskyV, oldest and best* known winemakers.
