lowing close behind, crashed into tne

particularly fortunate this year in
having as their guest the grand com

AMERICAS DRINK BILL.

The American Grocer of recent date
contains that periodicals annual sta
tistics regarding the amount expended
by the people of the United States for
tea, coffee, cocoa, alcoholic and malt
liquors 1t is shown that Americans
spent for stimulating drinks in 1905 the
astounding sum of 81, 54S, 70S, 3O7 The
Grocer says the total drink bill is ''one-
fourth OF the total estimated produc-
ton of the cotton, wheat, corn, hay,
tobacco crops. and every other prod
uct Of farms, orchards, cattle ranches
dairies and every other agricultural
industry. It amounts to one-eighth of
the nations total expenditure for
food"
An analysis Of the statistics shows
that s1,325, ,O74 was spent for alco-
holic and malt stfmulants and 1929, 269,-
233 for coffee, tea and cocoa. That is,
IS per cent of the total amount was
expended for intoxicants. This is a
per capita outlay Of s15.95 for intoxi-
cants and $2.6S for non-alcoholic
drinks. In 1904 the per capita was
1888 for intoxicants and S2.7O for non
alcoholics. There is very little cause
for comfort for prohibitionists in these
figures although 1t is figured that in
the slight decrease in the use of aIco-
holic stimulants, more than offset
though it is by the increase in malt
beverages consumption, there is a ray
of hope.
It is interesting to analyze the sta
tistics further. Of alcoholic stimu-
lants, whisky and wines, 12O.S7O,27S gal
Ions were consumed. The estimate
that there are sixty drinks in a gallon
Of spirit is fair. Therefore, 1859, 216,-
$50 drinks were taken by American
citizens This is an average of 81
drinks for every man, woman and child
in the country. OF malt beverages
1,5S8, 1907 gallons were consumed. If
we estimate that each glass Of beer
or like beverage contains one-haIf pint,
surely a liberal estimate, we find that
the people drank 2.305, 2O6, 16O glasses,
or 14S per person. The showing could
be made considerably worse by basing
it on population over IA years of age
and by excluding the considerable per-
centage of teetOtalers.
Where do the people get the money
they spend for intoxicants? That is
another interesting question. We know
they get it somehow. because they
sEhd It. And how much suffering does
this outlay Of upward e a billion and
a quarter of dollars represent? How
many hungry families, how many
ruined lives. how much misery and dis
tress and heartbreak? And how vast
ly better off the country would have
been if all this inconceivably vast sum
had been turned into legitimate chan
nels!
