Note and Comment

The consumption of beer in the British Isles in 1909-10 fell off 412,100 barrels, a decline of 1¾ per cent. Since 1900-01 the decrease has been 18 per cent, and has not been made up by any increase in consumption of spirits, which has declined even more rapidly,—47 per cent in ten years,—so that apparently the man who drank a glass of spirits in 1900 now takes barely half a glass.
