Liquor Sales Not Extensive.

Taking the records OF the internal
revenue commissioner as proof, there
was not very extensive selling OF liq.
uors in Vermont during the last fiscal
year, as compared with other New
England states. The federal govern
ment issued 249 licenses for the sale OF
liquors at retail in Vermont. while in
Maine the number was LOSS and In
New Hampshire, which is a fairer COM
parison, the number was l,34S. The
number of retail liquor licenses issued
to Vermonters the previous year was
326, quite falling Off Probably q
good many Of these licenses for the
last fiscal year were taken out for
only three months Tor the accommo-
dation of patrons at summer hotels.
Last year there were no wholesalers
in Vermont, at least no licenses were
issued therefor by the federal govern
ment, but license was issued to one
rectiiier. However, there were $40
dealers in malt liquors in the state, as
shown by the number OF licenses Is
