its manufacture would purchase an equal
amount Of sugar ready made. ani quite
certain that my own experience, for series
Of years, has resulted in different concu-

About forty barrels Of sap were boiled, con-
suming nearly three cords Of refuse wood,
chiefly bass and hemlock, and producing
about eighty pounds OF sugar and sixteen
gallons Of moIasses. Estimating the sugar
at ten cents a pound, and the molasses al
fifty cents gallon, and the sales were oil
