A curious fact has been brought to public attention by recent statistics published in England, In 32 counties of that country, and in 12 of Wales, there are 1,300 parishes and hamlets in which no liquor is sold. Norfolk contains 127 parishes and townships in which there is neither beer-shop nor public house. Lincolnshire has 116 such places, and Dorsetshire 108; Gloucestershire has 83, and Leicester 80 ; Herefordshire has one, Devonshire 23, and Cornwall 25.
