Maple Sugar Prices.

The area of maple sugar production
in the world is confined to Vermont,
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and the
eastern provinces of Canada. Only
small areas in the states of New York,
Pennsylvania, and Ohio have the rock or
sugar maple, but the yield per tree in
these states is large and the quality is
excellent In a very few other locali-
ties there are patches of sugar naples
but the production is not sufficient to
take into account. Vermont is the
only state whose entire area is suscep-
tible of maple sugar production. In
Canada last year II, 804, 1925 pounds of
maple sugar were produced, of which
$3.50, 421 pounds were exported. One
county in New Brunswick is said to
produce the best quality of sugar in
the world, though this is disputed by
Vermont produces. The fact remains
however that a guaranteed quality of
New Brunswick maple sugar cannot be
purchased on the spot for less than
twenty cents the pound, and the price
often runs to thirty. Just why the
Canadian producers are able to realize
such prices for their product is a mat.
ter which might proftably engage the
attention of their Vermont brethren.

There will be vigorous fight in con-

the people manufacturing dishonest

costs about nine cents pound, while
the former costs more than twice this

tion article to be sold as butter simply
by the addition of little coloring

through their associations, farmers

Just at this time the Randolph Her

as to what authority the Rev. E. j.
Ranslow had for stating, when sec
ending the nomination of John A
Mead for acknowledgements a year
ago, that DR.. Mead would not be a
candidate Tor governor next time and
was not seeking the minor position as
stepplng-stone to the higher. The
contemporary states that the assertion
was allowed to go uncontradicted at
the time and was, therefore, supposed
by many of the delegates to the conven
ton to be authoritative. Undoubtedly,
it had some weight in the nomination
of DR.. Mead. The public would GER
tainly like to know by what authority
the Rev. Mr.. Ranslow made such an
assertion. Times.

$2,847,OOO a Year.

When the Waldorf was projected it
was upon the very modest estimate
that each patron would spend So day;
the actual expenditure is said to have
been S13. This was in 1898. And
since then many Waldorfs have gone
up. With them. too. have gone up
the cost of food, of labor, of construc-
tion and of real estate; there are New
York hotels on plots worth from $3.50
to $500 the square foot. And with all
this there has mounted our general
standard of living; for we must al
ways remember that few people go
even to the most expensive hotels
against their will. In three new and
famous houses visited by the writer,
the price of two and three room suites
worked out to something like S8.25 per
room individually. Multiply 1925 by
three and half and one has sum
very niue in excess of Sl3. Suppos-
ing, however, that we leave it at that
| figure. A hotel with accommodations
for 1000 guests, running at three
fifths capa city-to allow for the slack
season-gives us an income of S2, SAT, :
900 for the year To this not less than
another half million must be added as
the income from the banquet and en-

On the American plan this hotel make S
rate for room and board of S. up.
And during its season it runs almost
to full capacity. This means, for five
months only, minimum of 81. 500, 900.
Its real income is undoubtedly nearer
the So. 100000 mark. Putting it at a
third of the investn e1t works out with
sufficient accuracy for the New Hamp-
shire resort hotels where 500, 285, 179

Dairymen Should Get Busy.

and all uncolored oleomargarine to pay
tax of one-fourth of one cent pound.
Secretary McVeigh is on record
favoring tax of two cents a pound

a law would open the doors to the ad-

BUTTER-On account of a rather
light supply and good deal of specula-
ton market has been pushed still
higher and should be quoted round 3Oc
to Sic for fancy northern creamery.
We find very firm market on choice
western which can be quoted from zoe
to 30c. Vermont dairies are in good
demand and generally selling from 27c
to 28c in tubs, boxes and prints from
28c to 29c. Market should be classed
as firm and possibly will hold round
present prices for several weeks.
EGGS are little unsettled, receipts
have been fairly liberal and while
there is fairly good demand for
strictly choice eggs the market is gen.
! orally slow on everything else. Strict
ly hennery eggs can be quoted here to-
day at 32c with some fancy Names
selling at 3Oc.. but good many lots
show defective quality and sell all the
way from 25c to 28c. Some Michigan
stock showing very good sells here
round 25c, but southwestern shipments
show wide range in quality and quite
heavy loss in shrinkage and these eggs
are selling all the way from 21c to 23c
and very few good enough to bring the
latter price. There is quite a volume
of eggs here that are not finding 6
ready market. Some are eggs that
4 should sell round 27c to Csc and quite E
good many that are offering freely al
26c, but the demand is slack on these
qualities and also only fair demand
for these medium grades. The marke'
should be quoted unsettled and rather
inclined to weakness on everything ex
cept strictly fancy stock.

GEoRGIA's NEW CONVICT SYSTEM

The abolition of the convict lease
system by the state of Georgia is a
cheerful note of progress in the south.
1t is also a tribute to the power of the
press and the influence of enlightened
public opinion.
One plank in the platform on which
Joseph NJ Brown was nominated for
governor last June called for the ex-
tinction of the practice Of leasing con-
victs to. private contractors. This
treatment of prisoners and the stories
of hardship coming with persistent fire.
uuency from the convict camps have
offended the moral sense of the people
in and out of Georgia. 1t brought OBJ
louuy on the empire state of the south.
The old system was baneful, vicious
and degrading. 1t lacked every ele-
ment of the refOrmatory spirit which
should enter into the treatment of
prisoners.
Under the new order the convicts
will be employed in building and i'm
proving public roads. This is COM
mendable in that it provides whole
some work for convicts, reimburses the
state for their keeping and brings to
the people of the state the benefit Of
better highways.
