When The Boys Come Home
1t is obvious that the liquor bust
ness is not suffering from the war.
Any industry as nOn-esSential
and as detrimental as the liquor
industry that boasts of coming
through the war unScathed by
means of legislative trickery de-
serves to he branded as Public En-
emy No. |. Says the Brewers Di-
gest in 1871: "One of the finest
things that could have happened to
the brewing industry was the in
sistence OF high ranking officers to
make beer available at Army camps.
Here is Il chance for brewers to
cultivate taste for beer in mil
lions of young men who will event
ually constitute the largest beer

will have to tell them that the very

were used in preparation of alco
holic drinks. The grain alone
would have fed 3.303 900 soldier!
for an entire year. Last August
1914. during the holiday the distil
lers used $50 million pounds o
grain. enough to have fed five mil
