Den.r liked Sugar.

In Vermont maple sugar camp,
owned by Mr.. Forsythc, the owner
this spring often missed cakes of the
maple sugar which had been set out in
the snow to harden. For long time
the men at the camp watched for the
thief, but never caught hi:n. until st
last one day they found bear tracks
leading away from the camp, and fol
lowed them until they came to a cave
in the hillside. Mr.. Rear was not ct
home, but in one corner Of tho cave they
found their cakes of maple sugar neat
ly piled up. Mr.. Bear had hidden away
nearly 200 pounds of the sweet STUFF,
and when they went to carry it away
they met him coming through the
woods, walking straight up on his hind
feetlike man and carrying more sugar
In his arms. When he saw the men he
did not wait to be shot, but dropped his
sugar and ran away like any other thief.

For the REPoRrRR:
David Decker Again.

Through the kindness OF the Editor
wish to reply to the article In last weeks
issue of the REPORTER by Mr.. Whittier,
relative TO David Decker, whose grave
has been recently marked by the Daugh.
tiers OF American Revolution OF Boston
The nan of whom MIR. Whittier writes
cannot be the David Decker In question,
else the writer's memory must be very
defective regarding his age, for In 1884
he was man far advanced 10 years, II
then living.
Eher Baker of this town, eighty-seven
years of age, remembers very well OF
going with his father to Mr.. Decker's
house and bringing away writing desk,
which is now ia Mr.. Bakers possession.
He thinks that was nearly, If not quite,
eighty years ago, and Mr.. Decker was
then an old man. We cannot learn with
certainty when he died, but 1t must have
been nearly seventy years ago. We
have no positive proof of his being a
member of The Boston Tea Party, but 1t
was generally go understood by his
neighbors and fellow-townsmen, as sew
eral elderly people testify, and we can
"a
have all originated from so trivial cir
cumstance as mentioned by Mr.. Whittier.
From the facts gathered ny careful re-
search among the older generation of
this vicinity, the Sons and Daughters of
the A. r. became convinced that the
unmarked grave was worthy OF their
honors, and we feel confident they were
right
The common tradition Of generation
ought to be as convincing proof as the
traditions of centuries, which make up
so large part of the accepted history OF
the world. The incidents which go TO
make up history are TOO often OF the
character, according to Wendall Phillips,
history is made, IA fabrication of events
which are agreed upon but nothing OF
century past, 1t seems to us, can have
better foundation than this story of
David Decker. | would add that Mos
COW had another David Decker who at
one time lived CD Chamberlain Hill. He
was younger man than we have to do
with, and no one seems to know what
became of bin. This may be Mr..
Whittier's Decker.

(but somewhat smaller) the house fly.
We think that the adult form of 1t Is
the fly shown, natural size and en-
larged, in the cut. The body Is black.
Its head and legs are light yellowish
brown. The wings lone Is shown en-
larged) are crossed by four blackish
bands and have a blackish spot at
their tip. The maggot is of light yell
lowish white color.
Unfortunately this cherry maggot
works in very inconspicuous man
ner. All of those who suffered from
its rayages the past summer did not
know of Its presence until their atten-
ton was called to ii by the consum
ers of the cherries The two cherries
in the upper part of the second cut
contained maggots, although they were
apparently perfect fruits externally. If
the cherries are allowed TO remain on
the tree or are not used within few
days after picking, the work of the
maggot Twill result in a rotting and
sinking in of a portion of the fruit, as
lis shown by three cherries In the lower
part Ol the cut. w Heu tuIS SldSt Is
reached or often even before the fruit
shows signs of rotting, the maggots
are usually full grown and soon crawl
out of the fruits.
One grower at Geneva. y. Y, reports
that he fears the same insect worked
In his prunes last year. Ten years ago
maggots were found working in both
cherries and plums In northern Michi
gan. These were thought to have been
the apple maggot, but we believe they
worked in the cherries of New York
and Massachusetts this year. Thus
cherry growers In the eastern, middle
and northern states should be on the
lookout for the pest.
There seems to be no practicable
method of getting at the pest while II
is in the fruit, except the heroic meth
oil of picking and destroying by boil
ing. burying or otherwise the whole
crop on the infested trees just about
the time the first fruits are ready to
pick or even before. This method. of
course. involves the loss of the cherry
crop of a season, but 1t Is the only
sure method we can conceive of to
completely check the pest. The pest
could be quickly stamped out in this
way, as it spreads very slowly.

be were destroyed all the marketable
fruit picked and disposed of and all
