The Maple Sugar Season.

The Ogdensburg Journal says
Farmers overin Vermont are already
beginning to talk of the maple sugar
season, and, weather conditions per-
hitting, buckets will be lin earnest.
Indications point to large crop this
year. The long continued cold wealth
er, heavy snow and general climatic
conditions are said to have been
favorable for a good flow of sap, and
trees which suffered from the ravages
of the forest tent caterpillar two years
ago, have recovered their former
vigor.
The demand for pure maple syrup
and sugar of good flavor and quality
is constantly increasing, and greater
quantities are being shipped to the
West each succeeding year. Though
the maple sugar industry in st. Law
renee county is hourishing, there are
not so many large groves as there are
in Vermont. A Vermont sugar bush
is profitable to the farmer, and the
work comes at time when there is
little else to do. AS good sugar and
syrup is made in st. Lawrence county
as in any part of the country and
large quantities are shipped to the
cities. st. Lawrence county maple
sugar should be as we'll known to the
market as that from Vermont.
