The Maple Tree and Sugar Making

Timothy Wheeler, of Waterbury, VT.
writes authoritatively as to 1.-THE
Maple Tree and its Capabilities He
is said to have made the making ~
maple sugar matter OF close investi
cation and study. Mr.. Wheeler saws
Vermont produces the best maple sugar
made in the United States. He is sat-
istied that the sap, which flows from
the tree in the early spring, does not
come from the ground, as the ground
and roots are both frozen, which would
make it impossible; neither can il he
supplied entirely from the body of the
tree, having been retained there durinp
the winter, as the supply would soon
run ont and leave the tree dry. He be.
lleves that the tree is replenished with
sap from the "vapor of weter in the at.
mosphere." Atnightthe tree gets cooler
than the atmosphere, which causes the
vapor to be absorbed, and the GOODNESS
also contracts the moisture in the tree
which has the effect to produce a "suc.
tion in the night" and "in the daytime,
owing to the heat, an outward pres.
sure' p" This is why sap flows by day
and ceases at night" This expansion.
by the heat of the sun, causes an in
creased pressure, and this is why the
flow is largest near the surface of the
tree, as proven by shallow hole COM
ared with deeper one, and why sap
is sweetest In proportion as it is drawn
near the surface of the tree; hence the
more shallow the hole the richer the
sap. On this account there can be sew
eral qualities of sap drawn from one
tree. 1t is not the quantity of sap the
tree supplies which determines its
value for sugar making, but the
quality; and, as rule, the tree which
offers the most makes the poorest
sugar. The most sap is obtained within
ten to twelve feet of the ground. It
diminishes in regular proportion, &C.
cording to height. At thirty feet the
tiow was found to be one and half
quarts, and above scarcely nothing.
The trees will yield from twelve 10
twenty-four gallons a day. In cold
climates more sugar can be obtained
from maple sap than in warm latitudes,
where molasses exceeds. Poor soil
produces the richest sap, aud the rich
soil the poorest. One tree, with two
spouts, will produce twenty pounds of
sugar; and one tree, with three spouts,
thirty nine and half pounds of sugar.
Toward the last of the season the sap is
sweeter, and more sugar can be made
from the same amount of sap.

LO! The Poor Miamis.

The Miami Indians may still be a
nation of 321 souls but they have no
country. About twenty-six years ago
they sold their birthright in Indiana,
where they had large reservation. to
he United States government for 1921,
600, payable in twenty-six years with in.
terest payable annually. This sum, to-
gether with one years interest, was re-
Gently paid to them, which gave the
'urvlving members of the tribe about
500 apiece. They have been dying
out slowly for years on their annual in,
terest from the government, and the
meager returns of their own industry.
lhey do not appear to have been thrifty
at farming and other pursuits of civ
llized life, and languished. They are
completely sold out, and when the
white speculator gets hold of their
money in hand there is nothing for the
remnant of the tribe to do but to 90
West and run wild with their savage
brethren. Civilization doesn't long

HEALTH HINTS.

Ten cents worth of muriatic acid
and acid of inter will take out any num-
Der of corns or warts. Scrape around
the corn and put the acid around it a
few times, and then you can take pin
and lift it out by the roots. Put little
greese in it when it is removed.
The following is an excellent and
safe remedy for children's colds Take
onions, slice thin, and sprinkle loaf
sugar over them, put in the oven and
simmer until the juice is thoroughly
mixed with the sugar. 1t makes a thick
syrup, very nice. Give teaspoonful
as it seems to be needed, three or
four times day.

REMEDY FOR BURNS According to
the Practitioner simple and effective
remedy for removing the pain of
wounds caused by burns or scalds is
saturated solution of bicarbonate of
soda in either plain or camphorated
water. To apply the remedy all that is
necessary is to cut piece of lint or old
soft rag or even thick blotting paper, of
a size sufficient to cover the burned or
scalded parts and to keep it constantly

means it usually happens that all pain
ceases in from a quarter to half an
hour, or even in much less time. When
the main part of limb, such as the
hand or forearm or the foot and leg,
has been burned, it is best when prac.
ticable to plunge the part at once into
a jug or pail or other convenient YES
sci filled with the soda lotion, and keep
it there until the pain subsidies, or the

The MAGNETIC Needle.

A condensed explanation in regard to
the needle pointing to the northward
and southwark is as follows: The
magnetic poles of the earth do not
coincide with the geo sraphical poles.
The axis of rotation makes an angle of
about 23O with line joining the former.
The northern magnetic pole is at pres.
ent near the Arctic circle, on the merid.
ian OF Omaha. Hence the needle does
not everywhere point to the astronom-
lcal north, and is constantly variable
within certain limits. At San Fran
cisco it points about seventeen degrees
to the east of north, and at Calais, Ne.
as much to the west At the northern
magnetic pole, balanced needle points
with its north end downward in a plumb
line. At San Francisco it dips about
sixtythre degrees, and at the south
ern magnetic pole the south end points
directly down. The attraction of the
earth upon a magnetic needle at its
surface is of about the same force as
that of a hard steel magnet, forty
inches long, strongly magnetized, at a
distance OF one foot. The foregoing
is the accepted explanation of the fact
that the needle points to the northward
and southwark. OF course, no ultimate
reason can be given for this natural
TACT, any more than for any other
observed fact in nature.

treatment ofwounds In Pruning.

- ~ sN-""a Au NHhhAuh.
When large wounds are made in re-
moving limbs or branches of fruit trees
they should be covered with common
oil paint. Linseed oil and the mineral
iron paint is the best for this purpose.
IL does not cause the bark to grow over
the wound and so heal it, but it pre-
serves the wood from rotting, and so
prevents the decay and injury of the
tree. No living thing, not even tree,
can long exist with part of it in dead
and decaying condition.

How to snoOred.

The right way to obtain good COW
is to raise her. Choose a good calf,
feed it we'll, but judiciously, but feed
it faithfully and see to it that it is done.
Some of our best breeders claim that
the milking qualities of COWS can be
influenced for the better by feeding the
growing calf upon such foods as promote
and stimulate the formation Of milk
glands. Be this as it may, milking
strains are in the main hereditary, and
great ilk yields can best be secured by
breeding under the farmers own SUPER
vision, selection of the best, and feed
lng to attain the end sought-milk. By
raising his own COWS the farmer has two
chances as against one where he buys
his dairy stock, The penalty of failure
IN selecting good COW is the necessity

EARLY Chicks.


The following remarks on the best
time to have hatchings or chicks are
from the American Poultry Journal:
While there are hundreds of chicks
matched out during the month of March.
there are more living results from the
hatchings made in April and Nav. when
the weather is more equable and the cold
chilly winds less frequent. In March il
Is Just as easy to get out the chicks. but
they are subject to more hardships dur
ing that month than later in the season.
Which augments the mortality con.
siderably. All through April there are
requent and sudden showers to guard
against, but then they need not be
feared, while the weather intervening
is generally mild and pleasant, SO
the chicks hatchel during April get a
good growth and neat dress of feath-
