save trouble for all concerned she
gives notice in this paper today that

nal proceeding will be instituted
This issue of The Republican, COM
prising sixteen pages, is the largest
paper ever published in Garrett coun-
ty and was made so that our advertis-
ers could be accommodated and at the
same time give to our readers all the
news of the county. The undertaking
to double the size of the paper was
huge one, but fortunately we have
succeeded, even though work upon it
was not started until Monday morn
ing at late hour. The advertise
oments appearing today are all worthy
of your consideration. .-s J

The Republican has been in receipt
recently of a number of communica-
tons (unsigned) concerning various
civic matters, among them being ref
erences to the civic club and the free
public library. As should be known
by the writer of these communica-
lions, the name of the author should
be appended, not necessarily for pub
LEGATION, but as an evidence of good
faith on the part of the author. The
absence of the information necessary
for the Identification of our contrib
utors precludes the appearance in
print of their communications.

The maple sugar season TINS year
insofar as Garrett county producers
is concerned, is of necessity very short
owing to the severity and long-con-
tinued winter weather. While many
sugar camps are usually opened some
time during the month of February
and from that time on until the first
of April or thereabout the manufac-
ture of sugar and syrup is carried on
with slight Interruptions on account
of snow storms of short duration, this
year no camps. in this entire county
were enabled, to operate until about
the middle of March, with the result
that the season instead of being of
several weeks duration is now speed
lily drawing to close Prices are al
most prohibitive, some producers ask
ing as much as so cents per pound for
the sugar and $500 per gallon for
syrup. These prices, however, are
not general, the average cost to the
consumer being 40 cents per pound for
sugar and around $3.50 per gallon for
the syrup. Buckwheat cakes and ma
pie sugar in the winter of 1920-192t
will be luxury instead of necessity
as in years gone by.
