MAY MAKE CIDER.
And May Serve 1t to Bona Eide Guests,
Says Kennedy.

States Attorney +. w. Gibson OF
Brattleboro received from j. E. Ken.
nedy, collector of internal revenue for
the district of Vermont, with office at
Burlington, relative to procedure in re-
gard to cider and fruit juices. The text
of the letter follows:
Replying to your letter of July IL,
/ am enclosing MIN. 81, which ex-
plains the procedure in regard to cider
and fruit juices.
Fruit juices may be manufactured
for home use, regardless of the fact
that in time they will become more
than one half OF one per cent of alcohol
by volume In this connection they are
held to be mountaineering in fact,
rather than non Intoxicating as defined
by section OF the Volstead act.
However, such fruit juices and cider
may not be sold except to persons hold
ing permits to manufacture vinegar. A
farmer may take his apples to Gus
toms mill and have cider made, and
then use it exclusively in his home.
This would, of course, include bona fide
guests. A person, however, may not
make the so-called home brews with
out being liable to the full penalties
provided by the volstead act
A paragraph in mimeograph 81 to
which the collector refers, says that
IF the maker of such cider and fruit
Juices desires to do so, he may o. sell
such cider and fruit juices at any time
to persons having permits to make vim
egar; this he may do under the pro
visions of said section 20. t2l II he
preserves such cider and fruit juices at
the time they are made, he may sell
same to the public in general; this he
nav do under the provisions of section
4 of title III Of said act. t3l Or he may
seIl said cider and other fruit juices
so long as they contain less than one
half of one per cent of alcohol. but the
purchasers thereof cannot use or pos
sess the same after they contain more
than one half Of one per cent of alco-
hol; this he may do under the provi-
sions of sections and 3 OF title III OF
said act
From the above il win be seen that
a person buying cider of farmer must
use Il or preserve II before the alco-
bolic content becomes one-half of one
per cent. otherwise he is liable to prose
cution. This regulation, however, Is
not intended to cover the commercial
use Of cider and fruit juices.

A mysterious fire was extinguished
the last of the week in the Sigma Nj
fraternity house in Burlington, next
door TO the Isham house, where a fire
only recently seriously damaged the
building, the earlier one also being of
mysterious origin. In the fraternity
house. which is occupied by Prof J. w.
Nichols and party of the summer
school of the University of Vermont,
the blaze started in an upper room,
where no one had been since early in
the evening, and burned the entire con-
tents of that room, with loss of about
81 900, covered by insurance. The cell
