OUR HUGE LIQUOR SUPPLY.

The United States lead in many more
lines of production than any other coun-
try.
We are away at the top of the list in
the output of iron and steel, which are
the great bases of commerce and trade
We lead also in the quantity and variety
of our manufactures as we do in the pro-
duction of wheat corn and the other ce-
reals which are most useful to man.
American meat goes along with Ameri-
can bread to feed millions among the ma
lions os Europe.
Another line of production in which we
are unrivaled, for quantity at least, is
the making of alcoholic liquors.
The extent of manufactures of this kind
in the United States is comprehended even
by very few Of our own people, the figures
being so enormous that they convey no
distinct meaning to the ordinary mind.
The total output of alcoholic liquors in
this country for the fiscal year ended
June 90, 1901, was 1875. 35S, O94 gallons. 1t
will aid us to comprehend what these fig
ures mean to say that the vast mass of
liquids they denote would equal in weight
to $50 battleships of the size of the Geor-
gia, which ways more than 1900 tons.
Equally divided among all the. people of
the United States this one years produc-
ton would allow to each man, woman
and child 17.S gallons of which 1871 would
be matted, 1.3 distilled and one-third of
gallon of wine. We export nearly twice az
much beer as we import, a fact that is
not generally known.
The beer imported into this country is
less than per cent of the amount our
people drink
Though many of our domestic wines are
excellent and their average quality is i'm
proving constantly, our importations of
wine are proportionately more than three
times as great as those of beer, for more
than 10 per cent of all the wine drank in
the United States comes from other coun-
tries.
Though there has been for years a large
and steady increase in our production of
alcoholic liquors the proportionate con-
sumption OF the stronger liquors is de-
creasing regularly and to a decided ex-
sent. There is beyond all question less
drunkenness in this country than there
formerly was. The statistics of the inter
nal revenue bureau which keeps an APP
proxin,ate account of the manufacture
and sale of alcoholic liquors present many
very interesting and suggestive studies.
