It fol- "'" wit In pioneer" days maple sugar was manufactured 'ns a household necessity and not as a luxury, as at pres ent. "Boughtcn" sugar could uot bo indulged In to any great extent, and the maple tree was made to furnish the household 'flWeetenliigV from year to year. Iu localities whero sugar-maple trees wcro scarce the little that was made was supplemented by a thick syrup made by boiling down, the juice of sweet apples, when they were to be had. "Maple drip" was greatly appreciat ed, and was mndo by packing the su gar lu kegs or wooden buckets with holes In the bottom to allow the unc vaporated or uneongcaled sap to drip away. These drippings were seldom used, but the sugar became more con densed nnd lighter In color and was called "maple drip." It was consider ed first class sweetening for most pur poses, tea and coffee excepted on ac count of the flavor Imparted by the su gar. Wo have been unable to learn the or igin of maple-sugar maklug. It Is known that certain tribes of Indians manufactured It In a crude way, but whether tho Iudlans learned the pro cess from tbo Puritans or the Puritans lroui the Indians wo are unable to say. The tiee mostly diawu upou for Its saccharine Nip Is botaulcally known ns Acer barbalum, and Iu English Is ealP ed haul maple or rock maple. Trees nre not consldeicd lit for tapping until they are 35 lo 40 years old. With the exhaustion, destruction, or decay of natural forest growths there has arisen a necesslly for setting out mnplo groves or "sugar bushes,' as they aro often termed. It has been estimated that the aver ago product of sugar per tree is about tin oo pounds, though a yield of 40 pounds of sugar haB been claimed for a slnglo maple. When It Is remember ed that from 15 to 20 quarts of sap tiro required to produco one pound of bugar, the How of sop to supply such a yield must bo enormous. Tho appliances for its early manu facture were ery different from those used at the present time, and tho dark colored sugar produced boro but slight resemblance to tho refined products of today. It is related of certain western dealers that they refused tho tlrst consignment of evaporated maplo sugar as not be ing genuine, but thoy were satisfied with tho "black Jack," or settings that were boiled down and soul to tlient. The Indians tapped tbo trees by cutting a V-shaped noteli with their hatchets In each tree and Inserting a hollowed-oilt chip to conduct tho sap Into soniu vessel below, In tlmu this notching process killed the trees. Tho early settlers bored holes In the trees with an augur, nnd inserted nldor spiles instead of notching the tree ns tho Iudlans had done. They also mndo troughs by cutting logs two or three feet hmir, suUtllng them In -THE FEAR 0P HUMBUG. Prevents Many People From Trying a Good Medicine. Stomach troubles nre eo common and In most cases no obstinate to cure that people aro apt to look with suspicion on any remedy claiming to bo a radi cal, permanent cure for dyspepsia and Indigestion. Many such pride them selves on their ncutonesn In never he Ing humbugged, cspoelnlly In medi cines This fear of being humbugged can bo carried too far, so far, in fact, that many people suffer for years with weak digestion rather than risk a lit tle time and money' In faithfully test ing the claims made of a preparation so tellable and universally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets ure vastly different '. 1 pue Important re spect from oidlnary proprietary medi cines for tho reason that they are not n secret patent medicine, no secret Is made of their Ingredients, but analysis shows them to contalu tho natural di gestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, tho digestive nclds, Golden Scul, bis muth, hydrastls and nux. They are not cathartic, neither do thoy act pow erfully on aiiy orguu, but they cure Indigestion on the common sense plan of digesting tho food eaten thoroughly before It has time to ferment, sour and cause the mischief. This Is the only secret of their success. Cathartic pills never have and never cau cure indigestion and stomach trou bles because they net entirely on the bowels, whereas the whole trouble Is really In tho stomach. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken af ter meals digest the' food. This Is all there Is to It. rood not digested or half. digested Is polsou as it creates gas, acidity, headaches, palpitation of the heart, loss of flesh and appetite and many other troubles which are often called by some other name. They are sold by druggists every where at 50 cents per package. halves, and chopping out tho middle portion, thus furnishing a receptacle that would hold threo or four gallons. The Bap was conveyed to tho boll lug place In buckots, narrower at the top than at tho bottom, which were made at the cooper shop. These buck ets wore hung at either end of a yoke made to fit the shoulders of a man or boy, whoso task of gathering the sap was very laborious. Much sap war. wasted by spilling from the buckets, or by the troughs running over when tho men wcro hurried or tired. Thu sap was boiled dowu In huge block Iron kettles holding from forty to sixty gallons each. A stout crotched stake wan driven solidly Into the grouud, upon which was placed a hickory sapling, one end of which pro truded a few feet beyond the stake; upou this end was hung the kettle, much like tho bucket at tho end of an old-fashioned well-sweep. The long end of tho sapling rested on the ground and was used to swing the kettle on and off the fire. Into this kettle was poured tho sap with all Its accumulation of leaves, twigs, and dirt, some of which was skimmed off with a shallow gourd after tho sap reached tho bolllng-polut. Later on, tho kettles were hung on a 6tout sapllug suspended between two crotched sticks, a rough shed of bought nnd slabs being built above them for protection. Occasionally a crude stone arch was built In a hill side for the kettles, but the huge af- fnira worn more awkward to handle In that way than when a hickory sap ling was made to bear the weight of lifting. The more shiftless sugar-mak er who depended on a couple of logs for support for his kettles, building a lire between them, sometimes came to grief by one of the logs giving way, dashing the syrup onto tiio ground. The acme of perfection iu sugar-mak-lug wns supposed to be reached when the big black kettles were relegated to the making of soft soap, aud sheet Iron paus wero used In their stead. Arches wero made for thesu pans, and a substantial shed was built over all. Some especially cnterprlslug makers nttaehed pulleys to the roof of the shed nnd moved tho pans about by means of ropes of chains, as they desired them over a hot tire or a slow one. Before this tlmo buckets had taken the place of the wooden troughs to catch tho sap, and wooden spiles were bought to replace tho home-mado alder spiles. Tho yoko for carrying tho buckets of sap gave way beforo the "Mone-bont" (upon which was a bar rel to receive the snp), drawn by oxen, us the sugar-bush wns gradually clear ed of underbrush, making possible tho movements of the "stone-boat" and the clumsy beasts among the trees. The "stone- boat" and oxen wero replaced iu time by sleds and horses. At tho present tlmo the trees aro tap ped by means of a bit; a galvanized Iron spile Is Inserted; and upon tho end of tho spile ts hung n pall, closely cov ered, except for an opening largo enough to recelvo the drippings of cap. In some Instances tho sheet-Iron pans uio still used for boiling down tho sap, but they nre partitioned off, aud tho different pans aro connected by gas plpu couplings, tho syrup making its Jouruoy from tho storage tank to the warming pnu, and passing; to tho front pau on the nreb, on tho same prlncl plo as an evaporator Is operated. Most largo orchards have ovaporntors aud all appliances for rendering tho making of maple-Hiigar rapid nnd easy. Substantial sugar-houses arc built In the grove In which tho boiling down Is done. When the sap reaches thu syruplng pan It Is soon thick enough for use. As It becomes thick enough to weigh 11 pounds to the gallon it Ik drawn out of tho syruplng pan, carefully strained, and allowed to cool and settle, when It Is ready to can and ship. The great secret of making tho finest quftllty of syrup lies In keeping every thing perfectly Mean nnd boiling down tho sap ns rapidly as possible. Tho best appliances boll down five barrels or more of sap in an hour. barrel of sap will make something less than nn 11-pound gnllou of syrup. Tho average Is about fcO gallons lo the hun dred barrels. The snp varies In Us saccharine qualities, that produced by trees In a thick wood not being as sweet as that produced in an open grove. The opening of tho sugar season varies greatly from year to year. Some years favorable sugar weather begins early Iu February, in other years the cold March winds begin to blow beforo the season opens. A sud den thaw followed by a sharp freeze Is sure to bring vork In the sugar camp, especially If the air Is moist and rainy. A dry, continuous warm spell, with wind, after the trees arc opened, dries up the sap rapidly, making a fresh tapping of the trees almost a necessity. The old time "Suguring-off parties." have almost passed away, partly be cause less sugar Is made than syrup, but mainly owing to tho greater com mercial value attached to the product of the maple grove. The averngo price paid the manufacturer for maple syrup Is f0 cents a gallon, and as an orchard of 1,500 trcps will produce about 1,200 gallons of syrup the farmer who owns a maple grove of any size makes a neat little sum from It during the season. In spite of the fact that more atten tion Is paid to the making of syrup than of sugar the output of sugar Iu 1801 was 7,033,300 lbs., of which Ver- fa monW furnished 5,000,000 lbs. Other t sugar producing Stales are New York, Ohio, Maryland, Michigan, Maine, and Now Hampshire. In 1S0S one county alone iu northern Ohio shipped 200)000 gallons of syrup; one township ship ping 28,000 gallons of syrup and 2,500 lbs. of sugar. As Ohio Is not the great est producer It would seem that it would not be dlttlcult to obtalu a sam ple of genuine -maple syrup for buck wheat cakes on a cold winter morning, but the fact Is that the supply does not nearly equal the demand, nnd outside the sugar belts it is hard to obtain un adulterated maple syrup or sugar. Little if any adulterating is done In tho sugar camps, but dealers who are able to obtain scarcely half tho quan-1 tlty demanded by their customers arc apt to increase the bulk of the product by adding n certain pioportlou of gran- J ulatcd sugar. The best way to obtain i pure maple syrup of sugar Is to write direct to the source of supply and or der at first hand. EMMA SEEVERS JONES. Kent, Ohio. CARLOAD OF BANANAS Received weekly.
