New York, Oct. 30.-After a care ful study of booze conditions in 20 states it is my conviction that: More whiskey is being smuggled into this country--and more bad booze is being moonshined inside the country-than at any previous time since the Volstead act went -into ef fect. And that the quantities of whiskey smuggled and booze manufactured are increasing constantly. It is my further conviction that this condition can not be put an end BSeminole F4 Oil Cot FERNANDIN Manufac1 i High Grade F H "Stockholders are requ< now for immediate delive elivery.

In spite of the lawbreaking that is going on almost openly throughout Cat the country it is likewise my convic tion that the sentiment of the com mIunities is that they are well rid of the saloon. I did not find one town or village. which would take the So saloon back. But that fact iloes not bui destroy the force ,of the statement ope that there are more intoxicants of vei one sort and another in the market pla todlay than at an ytime since the pro hibitory neasures went into effect. Booze is coming in almost uncheck- NOI ed at hundreds of convenient points (til along the 2,400 mile long Canadian frontier. The line is really longer, rai but that figure suflices. It is likely that every vessel which reaches a Un i t States port from Eu rope car ries at least as few bottles which Onl ultimately reach the shore. It is lX coiing in from Cuba and the Ba- the hamias, though not so much as is COD generally believed ,and it. is drifting , across the Alexican border, although l hardly in cominercial quantities. K'ven with the hearty cooperation of the outland authorities a very large force would b requir'el to stop this illegal importation. ah MAoonshining Situation Seriotus A far more serious situation, in iy to te opinion ,is being created by the moon- th shiniiing that is going on everywhere. Not only in this stufi actually poison Ous, as a i'ule-at the very best it is ti raw spirit which would inflaie a Tu bronze statute--but it is loaded with og fusel oil and verdigris because of the to lack of' cai'e and knowledge of its th makers. Every exleienced drinker Sol has a tale to tell you of the effect of . this imiooishinie stuff. Yet many of' the experienced drinkers go right on :1 the d riniking it. Others, imoire wary, r-t luse to anieept anyth inig e'xcep't wha t 0 1 they believe to be ''bottued in Iod Du goods. H I lere they are apt to fall into the ted sonreg of' thle sh iner'.

This seems a probability of the future. The Canadian authori ties are evidencing a desire to aid, and it is reported from Cuba-and likewise from Mexico-that the gov ernments of these countries are con sidering the liquor situation and are apt to take some action to help save their North Americano brothers from 'rtilizer and - npany, A, FLORIDA. burers of ish Fertilizers ested to place their orders ry or for Fall and Spring >ur prices to be right and inquiries." eral Offices: tilizer and Oil pany A, FLORIDA.

It will also be le ani incentive to farmers to en Illore enthusiastically into the ling of hogs and cattle. ome years ago the opinion of thern farmers, as a rule, was that stock could be raised profitably v in the Western states.

Vith this fact established and with farmers benefitting from improv methods of intensified farming, with the fertile soils throughout country elfiminating all doubt as the heavy yie!d of grain crops, re should be no further skeptic , in the opinion of oflicers of the )pally.
