For non-compliance with these rules an importer will be liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding ^ 2 0 for every bag or pocket. The Commissioners of Customs will have power to detain any hops imported for home use and not so marked to enable them to be so marked by the importer, who must pay any expenses incurred, and if they are not marked within fourteen days after the date of importation, or such further period as the Commissioners may allow, the hops may be removed to the King’s Warehouse.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

THE HOP SUBSTITUTES BILL. T H E Chancellor of the Exchequer has been so far impressed with the difficulties of the hop industry that, whilst unwilling to place any restriction on the import o f bops from abroad, he has introduced a Bill to prohibit the use o f hop substitutes in brewing, and providing for the marking of foreign hops. This Bill was accorded a Second Reading in the Commons last week, and has been referred to a Commitee o f the whole House. In its first section the Bill provides that a brewer for sale shall not use any hop substitute in the brewing of beer, and shall not receive or have in his custody or possession on any entered premises any beer containing any hop substitute or in the brewing o f which any hop substitute has been used, or (except for domestic use, the proof whereof shall lie on him) any hop substitute. For a contravention of this section there will be an Excise penalty of ;£ io o and forfeiture of the article. “ Hop substitutes ” are defined as any bitter article or bitter substance, other than hops, capable of being used in the brewing o f beer, including any preparation of hops the use of which in brewing has not been previously sanctioned by the Commissioners for the time being having the management o f the duties c f Excise, As to importation, it is provided that no hops shall be imported into the United Kingdom except in bags, or pockets, marked on the outside with durable ink or paint, in plain and legible words and figures, o f not less than three inches in length and half an inch in breadth, with the following particulars : the name of the owner, planter, or grower of the hops, the country and the year in which they were grown, and the gross weight of each bag or pocket. For non-compliance with these rules an importer will be liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding ^ 2 0 for every bag or pocket. The Commissioners of Customs will have power to detain any hops imported for home use and not so marked to enable them to be so marked by the importer, who must pay any expenses incurred, and if they are not marked within fourteen days after the date of importation, or such further period as the Commissioners may allow, the hops may be removed to the King’s Warehouse.
