Since no one has responded to your question, I'll tell you that the State of NH raises revenue through fees, certifications, registrations, and the lottery. Revenues may come from the State Liquor Stores, vehicle registrations, dog licenses, scratch tickets, fishing and/or hunting licenses, toll booths, tax on prepared foods (but not groceries), hotel rooms... I'm sure there's some I've missed but these are some of it...
