From Goat to Boat.

Even the festive goat in this vernal season
has his field sport on the common with tin
can or tho but Of log. From the sport OF
tho goat in the spring to the varied sports of
the early and late summer, what world of
amusement and what scene of muscular
activity. In all these, ever so helpful, from
the bat in the ball field to the oar of the boat
and the clatter of the turf, there comes in a
large amount of penalty in the shape of ser-
Gus sprains and troublesome BRUISES but 20
man is good athlete. nor does he develop
well from such exercises without his fun
share of both. 1t is n good thing, therefore,
that there is provided something which, ii
always kept ready, is always ready to cure
promptly these sudden and painful mishaps.
st. Jacobs Oil, without question, passes
among all sportsmen as the thing to have,
par excellence, in all kinds OF sports 1t has
gained its best reputation from its best cures
OF this nature, and the man who would en-
joy freely the summer sports would be al
mcst foolish not to keep IL bottle about him.

"The aluminium vessels now in use
in the French army are found to wear
very little. They can be heated over

not remain long in the vessels. Flasks
in which ordinary water is kept for
months show whitlsh spots near specks
of impurities-iron, carbon, etc, and
on the soldered portions if other metals
have been admixed. The vessels are
made simply by stamping, without sol

more quickly than in fresh water; it

Fell Into the Watcr-Tank.

A San Francisco gentleman was visit.
ing n building owned by him, says the
Post, and went upon the roof to inspect
the water tank. Seeing dead sparrow
floating on the water, he bent over to
take it out, and by some unaccoulta'
bic means lost his balance and fell into
the tank. He thus describes the ad.
venture:
The water came up to my chin, and
the top of the tank was three feet above
my head. The water was running in
constantly, and 1 could see that it was
usually foot higher than at present.
Unless l got out soon, or turned of the
water, should be drowned.
| shouted for help till l was hoarse,
but could make no one hear, and to get
out without help was an impossibility.
held my hand over the pipe where the
water ran in, but 1t was tedious work,
and in spite of my best efforts the
water continued to rise Not drop
seemed to be drawn off below.
Finally l drew out my pocket knife
and went to work to cut hole in the
side of the tank as low down as could
reach, and still keep my head above
water. 1t was slow work cutting
through that thick water-soaked pine,
and when at last l succeeded 1 was
standing on tiptoe with just my nose
out of water, and every blade in my
knife broken.
! WAS safe from drowning for while,
for the water soon ran off level with the
hole l had made. But even now, If
was to get out OF the tank must have
help, so l proceeded to raise a signal.
Ipulled OFF my shirt, tore itinto strings,
tied my lead pencil to my knife and
both to the toe of one of my shoes, and
then putting my undcrshirt on the pen
ell, waved it slowly and laborously
over the top of the tank. l waved for
hours, and still nobody came.
Then it occurred to me to dive down
and stop tip the pipe leading from the
tank, and so attract attention. 1t
wasn't half an hour before people came
up to see why the water would not run,
and | was helped out after l had been
standing in the cold water over six
hours.

beech, tin or galvanized iron and fitted
with a hanger for holding the bucket,
is driven firmly into the hole made
by the bit. a bucket of tin or wood
is hung upon the spout, and the tap
ping process is finished. The buckets
are like ordinary water pals, gener-
ally all alike, and each farmer usually
paints all his buckets one color.
Only one hole is bored in young trees,
but it is not uncommon to have as
many as six buckets with two spouts
each hung to naples of large size. If
the bucket fills with sap in day the
run is n good one, although twice this
amount is obtained in exceptionally
favorable sap days. What is called
good sized sugar orchard will
contain from 800 to 500 trees, and in
the northern and central parts of Ver-
mont orchards of 1000 to 1000 trees
are not uncommon.
When the sap begins to run well the
farmer and his family must work
hard. A man with a large farm will
employ help outside of his family fire.
oxen or horses to make the rounds
Of the trees with a sled, on which is
the large sap tub, into which the sap
from the buckets is poured. An or
chard of 700 or 500, or even LOCO trees,
need not require the farmer to hire
help If he has two or three boys in
the family besides himself. From an
orchard Of 700 trees an ordinary run
of sap for two days will enable the
farmer to collect about so barrels.
Sometimes 60 barrels of sap can be
collected from 700 trees in one day.
AS soon as the men begin to collect
the sap the fires in the big evapora tor
furnace must be started, and the boil
ing of the sap begun as fast as it is
brought in, so that none will be wasted
by souring, or that the quantity brought
from the woods may not so far ex-

ceed the accommodations at the house,
that while waiting to get room for it
much will be wasted at the trees. At
the time when the sap is running
freely the farmer must often keep the
fires going and the sap boiling all
through the night, and, of course he
Is likely to have to work all day Sun
day and Sunday night. 1t is all-im-
portant that he "make hay while the
sun shines"
When the work is hardest the fun is
at its best. Those who have but a
small orchard will spare some of the
family to help relative or neighbor
through sugarng.
The modern evaporator makes it pos
sible to do much sugar-making in a
short time. The evaporator is made
of tin, copper or galvanized iron, and
is so constructed that the sap flows in
at one end, and by means of partitions
extending nearly across the other end.

FROM SAP TO SUGAR.
CURIOSiTiES OF THE MAPLE
SUGAR BUSINESS.
How the Sap Is Obtained and How
Manufactured Into Sugar and Syrup
"A Profitable Thing for the Farm
crs of Vermont State.



The process of making maple sugar
and syrup is quite interesting to the
majority of people of this country.
While some maple sugar is made in
New Hampshire, northern New York
and Massachusetts, the bulk of it is
manufactured in Vermont The sap
of the sugar maple begins to run
about March 10 usually, and continues
three or four weeks according to the
weather. Sap will run only when the
thermometer registers at least 81 de-
grees F., and stops flowing as soon
rs the frost is out Of the ground, or
directly after the snow is gone. The
sugar season comes when the Vermont
farmer cannot protitably employ his
time otherwise.
AS soon as the weather is favorable
the Vermont farmer gets out his
buckets and sets to work tapping his
trees as quickly as possible. The ma
pie trees are tapped by boring the
trunks with Il small bit-usually n
half-inch bit-about IL inches deep,
and from one to three feet above the
ground. Trees are not tapped until
they are one foot in diameter. After
tapping, a spout made Of clean maple,

occupied by the boiling apparatus, and
with the bunk of the man who has TO
watch pans of boiling sap day and
night. One side is taken up by the
oven, which is built on bed of brick,
and consists of two brick walls, about
. feet apart, 2la feet high and about
II feet long. a huge old-fashioned
brick chimney is at one end, where
there is also sort of square brick
furnace to hold a big kettle. In the
roof, near the center of the ridge pole,
a large slot opens to the sky as an
escape for the steam, which rises in
heavy volumes from the pans on the
fire
The sap as it comes from the maple
tree is like water, and has barely any
more flavor than good water. But it
doesn't take much heat to produce
flavor. a barrel of good sap will make
a gallon Of syrup, or eight pounds
of sugar. After being reduced to syr-
up in the cvaporator the product IS
allowed to cool and settle, more or
less impurities being precipitated by
StdHullS. ne syrup is HOW reduy
for putting into cans for sale. The size
most in use is a one-gallon can.
The proper consistency of syrup is
generally conceded to be II pounds to
the gallon, and this degree of density
Is reached at 210 degrees Fahrenheit.
The sap is never made into more than
syrup in the evapOrator. Then 1t is
poured into large porcelain-lined ket-
tie to be boiled to sugar. If wanted
for sugar, the boiling is continued until
the thermometer indicates 323 degrees
for pail sugar, or 23S or 2i0 degrees for
cakes, when the mass is removed from
the fire, stirred brisky for a short
time, and then poured into tin pals
or cake molds, as the case may be,
to harden.
The cake molds are often series of
parallel partitions on a large wooden
board, with space in them about 3
inches apart, and just wide enough to
admit knife blade. The molds are
dampened with sponge, then the hot
water poured in. Little fancy tins
are also used for molds. The farmer
