Would you not like to feel that
your stomach troubles are over, that
you can eat any kind of food that
you crave? Consider then the fact
that Chamberlain's Tablets have cured
others-why not you. There are many

taking these tablets and can now eat

FOOD PRICE CONDITIONS

The, Department of Labor in its
Investigations has not been able K
discover any particular reduction il
the prices Of food stuffs. Meat pro.
ducts have declined somewhat, but
the ultimate consumer has not noticed
the difference at the butcher shop
The farmers are talking about a strike
because they, in common with every.
one else, are paying exorbitant
prices for everything they buy. A
half million soldiers left the farms to
go to war and it is estimated thai
only fifty thousand have returned to
farming for livelihood, the majority
being attracted by high wages in the
industries. The expectation of food
stuffs in April of this year was fifty
per cent less than for the same month
last year, but even though there were
no experts whatever it is estimated
that the greatly reduced acreage in
crops planted this year would not be
sufficient to take care of the needs of
the Nation. The 1920 crop is short
one, and some of the reasons for it
are enumerated above. 1t is reasona-
BILE to suppose that so long as crops
are short prices will remain high.

MAPLE PRODUCTION FELL

Production Of maple sugar and
sirup has declined this year, according
to the Bureau of Crop Estimates,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The sugar production was H.
$4,000 pounds, which compares with
10, 10000 pounds in 1919, 1921 900
pounds is 1918, and 10,839, 900 pounds
in 1917.
Sirup production has not fallen off
in the same degree, and yet the esti-
mates of 100000 gallons for 1920 is
much below the 3,854,0O0 gallons Of
1919, the 4,9O5.OOO gallons of 1918,
and the 4,2S6,00Q gallons of 1917.
With sirup converted~to terms of
sugar, the maple sugar production Of
1920 amounted to 36,373 900 pounds
and this compares with the estimate
of 41,005, 900 pounds in 1919, $685.
900 pounds in 1918, and 1927 900
pounds in 1917.
The productive season of 1920 was
a short one and the average number
Of pounds Of sugar per tree, with sirup
expressed as sugar, was only 1.91.
while in, the preceding three years the
averages ranged from ZIG to 2.72
pounds per tree.
