No Tax on Maple Products if Not

Editor, Times: A good many of the
sugarmakers of Vermont have an idea
that there is tax TO be placed on ma
pie products this year, but that is not
so. The producer can put up and sell
his products in any way he chooses,
providing he does not mix anything
else with them, but must state net
weight on volume on each package he
offers for sale or he win sure have
