DRINKING. Here and Abroad.

Despite the fact that the United
States consumes more beer than any
other nation, Americans are far from
being the greatest beer drinkers.
Their per capita consumption is only
20,09 gallons year as compared
with 56.20 OF the Belgians, S1.44 OF
OF the United Kingdom, e6.47, Ger
many and 22.ss, Denmark. Our az
gregate consumption is greater be-
cause our population is greater aud
It must be remembered that our
population is more heterogeneous
than that OF any OF these other ooun-
tries. Perhaps that makes a big diff
ference. Possibly assimilation OF
other people swells our average.
Our per capita consumption OF dis
titled spirits and wines is also less
than that Of various European coun-
tries, showing further that We are
not the greatest drinkers. II our
average consumption OF wine and
even whisky approached that OF
France, Spain, Italy or Portugal or
even Austria. We would have reason
for much more agitation than Is now
going on In the United States. OF
course. IL is but natural that these
southern European countries, where
wine is more abundant and cheap.
would consume more of It than we
here in the United States. though we
also make n good deal OF wine. But
10 get an idea OF how little we con-
sumo per capita as compared with
what other countries drink. II is in
tsresting to note that our annual per
capita consumption is go gallons
a fraction over half gallon-while
