PREPARING SUGAR FOR HARKEr.
II the sugar is cleanly and properly male, the best
form can be put in is cakes and upon this point
the sugar makers aIl need instruction. The size and
shane of the cakes Will often make difference of enc
or two cents pound in this city, where maple sugar
SO largely consumed by the cents worth, and is often
only maple sugar in name. Let advise al who in
tend to make sugar for sale to provide set of tia
molds, so as to make wel-proporoned, squaIe.sded
cakes in paralelogram form, OF exact, marked
weights, from ten pounds-never larger-down to foul
ounces, or perhaps IL aud a cakes to the pound FOL
retailers to sell at one and two cents each. Sugar
made as directed and cast in such cakes and those
packed nicely in boxes and sent to commission houses
here can always be sold at high prices and when the
maker becomes known bis sugar will be especially IN
| demand.
PLANT TREES.
We urge you not only to use your heaven-planted
trees but plant more. Plant them by the road side
plant them in farm lanes-plant them by the side OF
rocks, stone walls, brooks, hillsides, aud in waste
places and in your farmhouse and stable yards you
can tap them above the reach of animals, and hang
your buckets as we have directed and the flow will be
Just as great as though tapped down at the roots No
tree can be planted with more certainty of profit than
the eucar maple. Its form and foliage are beautiful;
it's shade delightful its sap delicious and he"ithial In
all stages from the water that flows from the tree TO
it's honey like sup the hot buckwheat cakes andts
sweet products, ifmade aswe have directed will Away
be salably profitable. Maple srup would outse the
best golden srup," at any time in this city If it wa
here for sale; ard maple sugar is sod tuns Of it, every
year in the confectoners shops and the street 10 bt
eaten nKe candy, at ~ to 5U cents pound. There
will always be market for any surplus that the coun
try can produce but that is not the grand object with
US in urging s increased production. 1t is because
| will greatly increase home happness-the farmer
| home. 1t is for that that We ask-are you ready
