has shrunk amazingly. 1t is under
stood that only $4,000 worth of stamps
were sold during the month of Febru-
airy. which would Indicate that 10000
quarts had been brought into the
state during that time. In January
the irnportations amounted TO 100. 900
quarts.
With the monthly rate of 10000
quarts. which. it Is said. were shipped
in last month. the state averaged
about 1.40Q a day. Since there are
twenty-five cities, 1S4 towns and 100
counties IN the state through which
the spirits can be distributed. the
daily consumption is seen to he
small. OF course this does not in
clude that brought IN by private
hands.

that person will he denied the priv

is dou if such luggage could pro-

is also not believed that the law will
permit person to act RS an agent for
another and bring spirits into the
state. although this Quantity would
be in accordance with the state law.
In other words. each person will be
required to personally convey the
quart from the wet state across the
boundry to his domiciIe.
While the new law has its ad
vantages. it also has points. which. 1t
is feared will prove troublesome.
one OF these is the probable growth
