Patent Maple Sugar.

Josiah Daily, of Madison, Ind, pro-
badly Il recreant Vermont Yankee, has
secured patent on artificial maple
sugar and syrup. The stuff is made 10y
simply mixing an extract of hickory
with any ordinary strip, such as cane
sugar strip or sorghum. The patentee
says: The extract is to be obtained in
any convenient manner, such as max
ing IL decOction with the hickory bark
or wood, or percolating liquid through
the same, or drawing off the sap from
the tree. The bark or wood of the
hickory tree may be ground to facili
tate the extraction of its principles,
and the extract may be made more or
less strong by increasing or diminish
ing the quantity of bark or wood, or by
boiling the extract for longer or
shorter time. In preparing sirups | or
dinarily add about three table spoon
fuIs of the decOctiOn to Il gallon of
heated or boiling sirup. OF course the
stronger the extract the less the guam
tity required for flavoring IL given
amount of syrup. The syrup may be
manufactured from any kind of sac
charine matter or mixture of saccharine
matters, or the sirups ordinarily found
in the market may be used. The effect
of the extract or decOctiOn is to give to
the strip the flavor of the maple, pro
ducing Il sirup which cannot be distin-
guisIled from genuine maple sirup. 1t
is evident that the favored strip may
be boiled down and Il sugar resembling
maple sugar in taste may be produced

For the Caledonian.
The Newbury Seminary.

The buildings at Newbury known as
the seminary property were sold re-
Gently to John Hatch for $4,000, and
the village school district has bought
of him, for use as graded school, the
brick building known as the Seminary,
with title to the common on which it
stands, the price paid being $4,000. 1t
is expected that the boarding house
will be made over into hotel, thus
reverting to its original use, the main
part of the building having been
noted tavern, built about century
ago.
This ends, as a private school. the
institution known as Newbury Semi
nary which has existed, in one form or
another, first as conference school
and later, under private auspices, for
81 years. 1t had its origin in the de-
sire to establish an academy, under
control of the Methodist Conference,
one of its objects being TO train the
Young men for the ministry. The con-
ference then embraced nearly all of New
Hampshire and all of Vermont east of
the Green Mountains, and Newbury
was selected as n central place. The
seminary building was completed In
1894, the first term was held that fall,
and the reputation of the school eX-
q tended till i'll it's large terms over BOD
q students were in attendance. AL
though hampered by debt for some
years, and always by lack of funds,
it did a vast amount of good, gave in
structiOn to thousands of young men
and women, and was, more than is
usually the case, a school for young
people with no one to help them. The
teachers were, most of them, from its
own graduates. some of whom were af-
forwards widely known. Osman c..
Baker, subsequently, a bishop of the
Methodist church, was one of its prin-
cipals. In 1852 separate department
for the instruction of young ladies was
chartered, its graduates during the
next eleven years numbering about
$50.
The establishment of the New Hamp-
shire conference and the opening of
the school at Tilton left the school at
Newbury on one side of the district
which was to be benefited by it, and
tlbCA AOne NOAbcSG SOllc
ton it was decided to remove the
school to Montpelier. In the autumn
of 1868 the personal property of the
institution was removed to the new
location, and the prestige as the con-
ference school which gave it rank was
4 taken away. The loss was irreparable
to the place, as it gave the village fame,
and furnished stimulus to the young
people in Newbury and surrounding
towns, which is sadly lacking now.
There was a select school kept in the
old building for some years, conducted
by different teachers, and in 1871 the
property passed into the hands of Rev.
j s. c. Eastman, who secured a new char
ter, and it was quite successful for a
number of years, but its attendance has
of late diminished to a mere handful.
E Although the institution has for a long
d time been a shadow of its former self,
there are hundreds of its old students
scattered widely who will hear with
regret that the school has ceased to
exist.

An Object Lesson for Boys.
Galen wilson in N. Z. Tribune.


For benefit of boy readers | describe
two farms and their owners familiar to
me. The buildings of one are dilapi
dated, several window panes are out
and their places filled with old hats
and rags; fences are down, stock only
partly housed, family unkempt, and
tools scattered. | saw on that farm in
December nearly new spring tooth
harrow in the field where used last at
wheat-seeding, Il grubbing hoe hang
ing on the fence where left last spring,
an anger all rusty on the wOodpile out
doors, and Il hoghook on the ground
where it was used year ago. This
farmer leaves all tools where used last.
did not believe this possible until Il
neighbour who borrows of him often
told me he never asks where tool is,
but where he used it last, certain of
finding it there unless stolen mean
while, which is often the case. This

The dwellings and Outbuildings of
the other farmer are always neatly
painted, fences in good condition, each
tool stored in its place, the stock all
housed, he and his family tidily cloth
ed, he is out of debt and has good
bank account, although he began with
little. He attributes his success to the
persistent care of everyt thing that
comes into his possession. He says
his father had place for everything
and required his boys to keep every
thing in place, so they could put their
hand on any tool or implement in the
darkest night. Many times when n
tool had been carelessly left out of
place his father would in some way de-
tect the culprit without asking any
questions, and then when night set in
