MAPLE sUGAKAs A CROP.

Late reports regarding the yield of
maple sugar in Vermont this season in
dictate that the total figures will come
nearer to an average yield than was ex-
pected some weeks ago. As near as we
can ascertain the sugar makers who have
worked their orchards for all they were
worth produced a fine article, got good
prices and fair profit. We find it i'm
possible to satisfactorily account for the
fact that so many farmers in the State
do not tap their orchards. 1t has been
well said that timber trees declare a
dividend only at death, and there is CON
slant and strong temptation to their de
struction; the sugar maple declares an,
nual dividends and the tree survives ~
We fear that the maple tree is not re.
ceiving all the attention il deserves at
the hands of Vermont farmers. Prof
A. j. Cooke writes the Garden and FOresi
that the value of the sugar maple, and
the rare delicacy and excellence of the
product delivered from it, is so great, in
his view, that on his own farm, fertile
and productive one, there is no portion
which yields more satisfactory returns
than does forty-acre sugar-bush. MOI
is he alone, for he refers to neighbOI
who states that his fOrty-acre sugar
bush pays net profit of u per cent. on
high valuation. We believe the farmers
of Vermont cannot afford to neglect any
source of revenue, and that those who
invariably tap their orchards, who give
special attention to the care of theil
trees and the manufacture of the sugar
and who make study of the subject in
order TO secure the best results are wiser
than their fellows, who fail to. do all this
because of the trouble or because they
think sit wont pay.n-Free Press.

FOREIGN METHOD OF BOOMING
TOWNS.

How to boom town has received a
very interesting discussion by the inhab-
itants of Shanklin, Isle of Wight. Mr..
Henry Irving lately spent week there,
and soon after there was injecting OF
the inhabitants of the Shanklin to con
slider the best way to use, for the benefit
of the town, letter from Mr.. Henry
Irving, recent visitor to Shanklin; and
also how best 10 make known the town
as a desirable resort and place Of resi-
dence.n Mr.. Irving by request, had
written "a few lines Of recommendation
for the press.n 1t was suggested that
t'lis ought to be advertised. A doctor
thought that advertising was ''yery
good 9 but that the best plan would be
TO start a children's hospital. The best
way 10 increase the growth of Shanklin
was ''to got inwith thegreat physicians. .

soMETHING WRoNG

If you live in New York city it costs
less to have parcel sent to you from
Chicago than it does to have it sent to
you from the Battery to Harlem. The
farmer sells milk to the retailer at three
cents a quart. The retailer carts it
around a city to customers and charges
them eight cents a quart, and declares
he cannot make living ON less and meet
his expenses. 1t seems to be true that
the milk dealers of cities are not all mil
lionaires.
The retail meat dealer gets anywhere
from so TO 800 from beef for which
the farmer has received at most $50.
The retailer has paid the wholesaler
perhaps $50 for the carcass. The retailer
does not seem often to make great for
tune, and the farmer certainly does not
make a fortune these times. The retail
meatman, like the retail milkman. de
clares that he cannot make his business
pay if he counts ON any less profit, there
is so much expense in cutting up and
distributing the meat. The same story
may be told of the grocer, also. 1t may
be that clumsy, wasteful and antiquated
methods of retailing food in small quaint
tiles eat up the profits alike of the pro-
ducer and retailer. But the dwellers in
cities cannot buy food in large quantities,
for they have no place to store it.-Bur-

AFTER FORTY YEARS.

! A most curious incident illustrative Of
delay in correcting official mistakes il
the departments at Washington has lust
come to light as sequence of the pas
sage of the bill placing John G. Fremont
upon the retired list of the army with the
rank of major-general.
The first Republican candidate for the
Presidency is most picturesque patri.
arch, II years old, and has been for years
in circumstances, if not of actual poverty
at least straitened. In 1913, when a
lieutenant in the army, he seized and
held with an iron grip the region which
is now the State of California, and no one
denies that the Nation is indebted to him
for that gilded member of sisterhOod.
While engaged in this service Lieuten-
ant Fremont's accounts with the Gov
ernment were left in such a state that he
has always been regarded as an official
debtor to the Government to the amount
of $40, 1000; and it has been one of the
chief sorrows of General Fremont later
years that he was unable to square this
balance against him, the record of which
was in the Office of the third auditor of
treasury.
The other day General. Fremont called
at the Office of Second Comptroller Gilk-
erson of the treasury, whose business it
would be to pass upon the balance
against him. The old man in trembling
tones stated to Colonel Gilkerson that
his financial circumstances are such that
if his salary as retired major-general
were retained to meet this alleged short
age he would be for some time in actual
want At his request the Second Comp
troller investigated the accounts, and
greatly to his surprise discovered that in
stead of General Fremont being debtor
to the United States, the Government
had actually owed him for over forty
years S2l 900.
The records were perfectly clear, and
it was proved beyond dispute that
through mistake in bookkeeping, Lieut.
Fremont had been charged with $4,000,
for which voucher was on file, and that
by another clerical error he had not been
credited with voucher for S21 200, which
he had expended under the direction of
the War Department
When General Fremont called again to
ask Colonel Gilkerson whether some ar
rangement might be made to pay his
supposed Indebtedness by installments
he was so unprepared for the glad news
awaiting him that he tainted. Yesterday
a warrant for the amount due him was
made out, duly approved and signed
