A bushel of malt is equal to bushel
of barley, which weighs 53ib. and will
give 4Olb. of -four, which will make Cob.
of bread or 10 Alb. loaves per bushel,
making n grand total of grain or pro.
duce destroyed nearly equal to 1,1O0,'
O00, 900 Alb. loaves, or over 15O loaves
per annum for every family in the Uni
ted Kingdom.
If these loaves were used as paving
stones they would pave a road,
10 yards wide, upwards of 1900 miles
long.
IF the leaves had to baked in a shop,
and 800 ofthem were baked each hour
for 10 hours per day, and for six days
per week, it would take the baker over
700 years to bake them.
. If this grain were taken and thrown
into the sea we should be horrifipd, but
1t would be great mercy thus to de-
stroy 1t, for the waste OF the food would
be the whole OF the evil. As it il, we
destroy it and also make it into q mad
dened liquor which ruins and destroys
the people
1t were bad enough to destroy the
grain, but it Is infinitely worse to de-
stroy the grain and ruin the peo pie as
we'll.
