There is little joker in the new
liquor law which went into effect Aug
"a. The vets have just discovered it,
The law reads that mail orders for
liquor in dry county can be filled
only when accompanied by an affi-
davit that the purchaser. the one to
whom the liquor is to be received, is
past Fl years OF age. This makes the
law on sale OF liquors by mail conform
to the law against saloonkeepers and
bartenders disposing OF liquor to min
ors over the bar.
The object is to prevent agents for
breweries and others In dry counties
from bootlegging. Only one AFFIDAVIT is
necessary for the entire year, where a
person is regularly engaged in placing
orders.
In some OF the dry counties to avoid
delay in the receiving OF wet goods
shipments, the agents have become
notaries public that the affidavits OF
the purchasers may be taken when the
orders are put in.
