SAP IS RUNNING EARLY.


'Sap's runnin'." for the last few
spring like days has started the sap
and il wills soon be sugaring off time.
The merchants in the hardware line
have had quite call in the last week
for sap buckets as the season
seems to be earlier than anticipated.
The making of maple syrup and
sugar is not such an extensive bust
ness in the spring as ii used to be.
as very few farmers have a sugar bush
left on their land. The trees have
been cut down and but very few
bushes remain.
Those that have been saved nuE. Der
but few trees where years. ago
there were hundreds of trees to be
tapped and the sap boiled down and
taken care of. Those farmers that
have a sugar bush that will yield
more than they need for home con-
Sumption. find ready sale for any
surplus and at a good price.
1t is said that the sap has started
aI.- -a4nns -
this year much earlier than In the
past and that the NAPLES seem full of
it. Even city shade trees begin to ex-
ude sap from their limbs. which falls
to the cement walks and gives the
old timer not only the spring fever
but desire to live over again the
bcvhood days in the sugar bush on
fathers farm.
The latter part of this last week VIII
zee the genuine old-fashioned maple
syrup and sugar on the market for
considerable of it will then have been
made in the surrounding sugar pushes
and sent to town. A sugar bush
seems to be as profitable an asset as
the farmer has besides the pleasure OF
working in the woods and "sugarin
off. Z"

Mayor Kinq Should Be RenOminated,

Rotation in Office is all too prevalent
in American politics. Happily. how
ever. it is being rapidly eliminated
from our national politics. Maine
and Massachusetts. early learned that
they were best served ny keeping their
able men in congress for long periods.
Iowa, among the western states.
has learned the lesson more thorough
ly than any other. and for that reason
creates larger infuen ce in the
national legislature. Michigan. along
with the other states. is coming to the
same WAY of thinking. as the return of
the same men TO the senate and house
plainly show.
In our municipal life. which is more
important because it vitallv touches
the life of every citizen. we have not
learned the lesson and. what is more,
we do not seem to be learning it,
This has local application. Alma
has not vet had mavor. or for aught
we remember. who has served more
than two terms. which means two
short years In manv cities term
is two, three or even four wears.
which. with the customary reelection
gives a better If not good oppor-
tunity to work out policy. To
attract good men into municipal life
we must give them an opportunity to
accomplish something. which means
that we must give them longer term
of service? Alma is not lacking in
public spirited men. but what induce
ment is there for anyone to accent, for
example the Office of Mayor, when it
means at most, but two years of
service. NO one is so foolish as to
think he can accomplish anything
worth while in that time. Is it not
worth our while. therefore. to consider
the question of re-electing good
officials year after year9 When we
elect a good man should we not keep
him In office as long as we cam
Everybody admits that our present
mayor, Mr.. Francis King. has been
in every way irst-calss; everyone
admits that we cannot secure better
one. Whether he could be induced
to accept the nomination again, prob
ably no one knows. That he does not
desire it has been repeatedly made
clear. Sometimes. however. the wish
of a community will make one change
his mind. Is it not worth while to try
this in the case of Mayor Kingf-
