The Further Adventures of Spud the Dog, 12th May 2013

After the first day that resembled spring, one which Spud spent charging around the field overnight he developed a sore looking patch on his neck, about the size of a 50p piece, it was troubling him, it was obviously very itchy. So Mr Uphilldowndale took him off to the vets. Where they shaved the fur off around the patch, Mr Uhdd said Spuds skin coloured up and started to swell in a flash. Poor Spud.

Spud came home with steroid cream, antibiotics, a fish oil supplement for his food and an £80 bill.

Dodger the kitten-cat decided after that upset, what everyone needed was a nice cup ofand the courts. In the first statute regulating the alcoholic beverage industry in Indiana after the passage of the Twenty-first amendment to the United States Constitution in 1933, wholesalers *660 were limited in number and restricted geographically to selling alcoholic beverages only in specific areas, usually counties. 1933 Ind. Acts, Ch. 80, Sec. 6, p. 492. The quotas and territorial limitations were repeated when the legislature created the first Indiana Alcoholic Beverage Commission in 1935. 1935 Ind. Acts, Ch. 226, Sec. 5, p. 1064.
In 1939 the legislature abandoned the quota system and no longer limited wholesalers to selling in a specific territory. 1939 Ind. Acts, Ch. 29, Sec. 2, p. 86. Producers and wholesalers, however, executed agreements which gave some wholesalers exclusive distribution rights in certain geographic territories.
