The fault does not lie with the
PRODUCERS, those who tap the trees
and reduce the sap to syrup and
sugar, but with the middlemen,
who buy the sugar and mix and
adulterate it most profitably for
themselves. The extent of this
adulteration is illustrated bv the
fact that while the amount of the
raw product has decreased, the
whole quantity sold has largely in
creased, and its market price has
been reduced. OF late years the
price has fallen in direct relation
to the decrease in the price of cane
sugar.
The most common substitutes
used in the adulteration Of maple
sugar and syrup are other sugars
and glucose. Much of the so. called
maple syrup on the market is Moth
ing but bination of sweets
with a little maple molasses added
to give the maple flavor. There is
also maple syrup which contains
no maple at all, bnt the flavor is
obtained by adding to the conf
pound an extract of hickory lark.
Thisextensivp adulteration forces he
producers of pure maple syrup to
compete with cheap limitations.
The price Of their raw products is
kept down, and the forests of MAJ

owners as they other wise might

An Editors Appeal.

IF the editor of every paper in the
central west will publish these lines
there is no question but what DR. S
L Byers, of Seeleyville. Ind. will re-
cover his little son who was stolen
from his home one year ago last
May. DR. Byers has spent his entire
resources in search for his child and
unless the big hearted members of
the press come to his assistance his
son will grow up an outlaw and an
outcast among the lowest people of
the earth. 1t is a cause that should
appeal to every one and no father
reading these lines cen do so with
out a quickening of the heart and a
sympathetic thfob. 1t is believed
that if this article is reprinted in
the newspapers it will form an end.
less chain that will uncover the
lost boys concealment and return
him to his distracted parents In
doing this the profession of journ.
alism will be fulfilling of its high
est destiaies. Publishers whose cir
culation touch the Wabash, Ohio
and Mississippi valleys #:s especially
requested to reproduce this story of
the lost child as DR. Byers believes
he is now on some hOuseboat wait
ting to take the road in he spring.
Their" is reward of $500, waiting
any information that will lead TO
the bows recovery. No questions
will be asked if the abductor him
self would deliver the boy to his
parents lie would not be molested.
The bereaved parents are heart
broken with grief and want only
their child. If eacl, journal will re-
print these lines, they will travel
to every exchange table in the
United States and bring back TO Il
wret,hed home a child who is now
no doubt suffering with cold, unfed
and wretched to a degree. Think
of what your own feelings would
be under SIMILAR circumstances!
This appeal is indicted originally
by a publisher who saw DR. Byers
only once, has no personal interest
in lis quest other than the bond 1T
sympathy that makes the world
akin, and is inspired from he belief
that the lost boy can only be found
through the united effort of the
country press of which he is proud
to be a member. His recovery will
be a triumph in advertising and no
editor whose heart is placed right
