Suearmakers and Oairymen.

Hon. v. /. Spear, III. w. Vail and ID.
II. Morse have been in Montpelier since
Monday, attending the annual meeting
OF the sugarmakers and dairymen Of the
state.
The 18th annual meeting Of the Maple
! SugarmakeTs association opened Monday
evening, when A. r. Phillips Of Chagrin.
o., who was Mr.. Spears guest in Randolph
over Sunday, spoke on "The General
/ Needs OF the Maple Sugar Industry,
giving an address that was full Of interest
lie pointed out that as regards production
color is the most important consideration
and that II is through education that
sugarmakers can be brought in time to
nearly all make a high grade product
ln this connection he praised the work
Of Nermont's experiment station, saying
il does more than any other station in
the United States. To do away with
adulterations he argued for uniform laws
IN all states where maple sugar is pro-
duced and then for United States control
OF the finished product, favoring the
Hepburn bill in this respect
In a discussion which followed Il was
brought out that in Ohio nearly nine
tenths OF the maple product Is sold in the
form OF syrup while in Vermont il is
nearly all made into sugar. Among those
who joined in discussion were Mr.. Spear
and q. III. Grimm OF Rutland.
Tuesday afternoon Mr.. Spear took up
the obltCtlOnable features TO be romedied
BY patrons OF the Maple Sugar Market in
Randolph. He stated that IN many cases
the syrup comes TO the market too thin,
with the result that 1t sours before il is
marketed; others ship il so thick that It
grains and settles, making il unmarked
able. All sugar and syrup should be
made with the aid OF hydrometer or
thermometer, resulting in a satisfactory
product every time. Then, too, the nitre .
is not taken out BY the producer, neces-
stating the doing OF the work at the
market, as none but "pure maple"
will be sent out therefrom. The gallon
can and ten pound pals are the meanest
packages TO market. Such packages in
volve a loss Of about ten cents per gallon
TO the producer, a loss OF five cents per
gallon and temper 10 the market man.
Larger packages are preferable.
Incleanliness Is another objection 10
some OF the sugar that Is brought to the
market All the things mentioned above
lower the price both TO the producer and
v holesaler.

ion yesterday, n. W. Vail OF Randolph
