§ Lady Tweedsmuirasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the standard content of a bottle of whisky used in the State public houses at Carlisle as compared with those sent for export.
§ Mr. EdeThe bottle used for spirits in the bottling stores in the State management districts is, that used in the home trade generally. The bottle, designated a "Spirit Quart," has a capacity of 5⅓ gills, or 26⅔ fluid ounces, and six such bottles go to the gallon (32 gills). So far as my information goes the same bottle is used in the export trade.
