A barrel of beer will average 31iA gal
Ions. In POS 252 barrels. there would
therefore be 6,559,93S gallons. Multi
plying this by four gives 2G,239. 752 or
the number Of quarts. On the aver
age, even along Lackawanna avenue,
there are five glasses to the quart. and
computing on this basis, it is found that
the total number of glasses of beer of
home product drank in Lackawanna
county last year is 13l, 1880, to say
nothing OF the foreign beers consumed
here.
1t is estimated that the next census
will show our county to have 200, 900
population. Two-fifths of this popula-
ton, it is safe to say is enrolled in The
ranks of the total abstainers. This
would leave 100000 persons to get away
with 13l,19S,76) glasses of the foam
ing amber fluid, or about $50 glasses
for each person. Taking ii for granted
that some persons who drink are tenn
perate in their drinking. it would ap-
pear that others are taking a thimble-
ful too much.
