In the evaporation, the product Is al

impurities being precipitated by stand
ing. The syrup is now ready for put
ting into cans for, sale. The size most
In use is one-gallon can.
The proper consistency of syrup Is
generally conceded to be eleven pounds
to the gallon, and this degree of density
Is reached at 219 degrees Fahrenheit.
The sap is never made into more than
syrup in the evaporation. Then it is
poured into large porcelain-lined ket-
tie to be boiled to sugar, the boiling
is continued until the thermometer in
d1cates 232 degrees for pail sugar, or
238 or 24O degrees for cakes, when the
mass is removed from the fire, stirred
briskly for short time, and then
poured into tin pals or cake moulds,
as the case may be, to harden.
The cake molds are often a series of
parallel partitions on a large wooden
board, with space in them about three
inches apart, and just wide enough to
admit knife blade. The molds are
dampened with sponge, then the
hot water is poured in. Little fancy
tins are also used for molds. The
farmer gets anywhere from 10 cents to
18 cents a pound for his sugar, and
from rs cents to 81 gallon for his syr-
up. A sugar maple produces on an av-
erage about three and half pounds of
sugar during a season.

PENSIONERS IN AUSTRIA.
Old Soldiers of the Crown Are Well

Nineteenth Century.
Such of the old people as have clothes
of their own or have friends willing
to provide them with clothes wear
them. while the less fortunate are
supplied by the poor law department
with what they require. In the lat

possible, is warm and comfortable, and

indeed, as it is made in the building,
it is exceedingly probable that they
who wear it, at least if they be women,
have voice in deciding it's fashion.
With the exception of the invalids, all
are required to keep their clothes in
good repair and to pay a certain
amount Of attention to their personal
appearance. These are points which,
especially in Vienna, are strongly in
sisted upon, for the city does not
choose tc have it's old pensioners going
about dirty or in rags The hall por-
ter has strict orders to allow no one
to go out until he has ''tidied up" and
this regulation is warmly approved by
the majority of the inmates them
selves. TIE an outsider it certainly
seems superf1uous, for most of the old
people are the very picture Of neat
ness. They all appear to have a good
supply of clothes. One of the inmates
of the Prague home insisted on show
ing me his wardrobe. In addition to
the rough gray suit he was wearing,
he had a pair of dark trousers and
waistcoat, all in thoroughly good con-
dltlon. He had, too, under his care
a silk gown, which he displayed with
Infinite pride. It was his wifes we'd

for greater safety. "She always wears

twenty-five recruits from the various
stations in this city, under the leader
ship of Cadet Vincent, paraded the
streets and held open air exercises sim
liar to those of the Salvation Army.
1.-The members of the band each wore a
red ribbon, over which was pinned a
picture of Mrs. BallingtOn Booth, and
had the words God Bless Our Leader
inscribed upon it. At their head they
carried the United States flag and a
banner bearing the likenesses Of George
and Martha Washington.
Cadet Vincent, when asking for a
contribution, stated that not a cent Of
1t would be sent out of this country.
., In talk with a representative of the
Associated Press he said that as soon
as Ballington Booth signified his inten-
tions, they would organize under his
directions. They expect to be able to

Steel Construction In Birds,

A curious gift has been made to the nat

claim to being one of the strongest men of

on his shoulder little while later he was
asked to do the act, and he repeated it easily.
Roderick is considered one of the strongest
men at work in the York corporation. and he
can lift two ordinary men.
Kid Boulanger, of Biddeford. who is twantv
years old, has made a record for heavy lifting
that has not been equaled in York county for
his weight. He has a barrel half-ffIIed with
water which he lifts with his teeth He also
