PRINCE WILL VISIT IRELAND

A visit to Ireland in 1927 is known to be on the program of the Prince Of Wales. Irish men who met the prince in London at St. Pat ricll's Day celebrations have confirmed reports 10 this effect.
 The prince has been invited to Ulster for an official visit next year, but he Is understood 10 be anxious to extend his vist to southern Ireland also, mainly for reasons of sport. While there Is believed to be no chance of his making an official visit to the Free State 1t is considered possible an unofficial journey there may be arranged. The prince Is personally
 popular in southern Ireland, but responsible
 quarters feel the time has not arrived when | formal visit would be free from embarrass-
 ment and even possible danger

Astruc speaks with authority, for twenty years ago he devoted all his energy and much American capital in providing Paris with g Temple of Music" The temple is still visible Just off the Champs ElyseeS and for the first time in It's existence Is full every night, but that is due to It's having become vaudeville thaattr.
 He arrives at his total by estimating tha, there are 1000 frequenters of Sunday orches. tral concerts and 5000 who attend matineet al the Opera and Opera Comique
 M. Astruc recalls that when he told Camille C Chevillard, then the veteran conductor of the Lamourex concerts. of his intention 10 builC his Temple of Music for Paris, that exper merely said. Are you sure that there Is 8 loy, for music in Paris?"

HAS MAPLE TREES
 OVER CENTURY OLE
GustaVus CoWles Finds Sap Is
 Not Running Freely
tsreelal tn The HeralaN

fp.inville, April 1o.---The sap Is
 now flowing from the sugar maple
 trees of Gustayus Cowles, believed to be the only group Of such trees
 Of any size in this part Of the state.
 But II is n poor year. Mr. Cowes says. and the sap Is not running as , freely as In the past. The reason ] for this he can not state. but he be- lieves that the long continued cold, extending Into April is responsible. 1 When the frost Is thawed from the ground and the soil begins 10 grow
 warm. the sap starts 10 flow, tho season usually lasting from mid March 10 about April 10, but this spring the tha~ came late. Mir. Cowlcs admits that 1t may be only late season, but he is afraid that 1t will turn out 10 be poor one. His group of large trees, some 80 In number grows on q 70-acre tract Of land fronting on Cook street and the Farmlngton-Pl Plainville road, line Of them fronting the highway like row of silent sentinels. The trees are more than f10 yeara old and have been tapped each year for at least half Of that time. Mir. Cowles, having no adequate equip ment for handling the flow of the entire group and being too busy conducting the other duties of his farm, does not tap them all. AS rule, about dozen trees are tapped each year.
 The yield Of the trees varies, but on good days tree will fill q ten- quart pail; sometimes however. five quarts or less is the best 1t can pro- duce. This sap Mir Cowles boils down on an ordinary kitchen stove in shed, using large metal tray. It requires about 25 quarts of sap ta produce one quart of syrup, which accounts for the high price of the latter when 1t Is pure. That which is produced on the Cowles' farm is pure and virtually transparent, A. though this year it would probably bring sl a quart, he makes just about enough to take care of his own needs during the year. with some left over to give to his friends. He does not know Of another place in this district where maple sap is harvested.

CHICAGO, July 14.-Trading was
not as active on the Chicago Board
Of Trade today as it was during
Tuesdays session. The bullish Ca
madam report was fairly well dis
counted when Liverpool and Winni-
peg failed to respond to it as Chi
cago did, but prices maintained their
levels, and wheat even exceeded
them, on the reports of unfavorable
conditions in the Northwest.
Wheat closed from Is to q cents
higher, July selling at 144b North
west weather was hot and dry all
day, but unsettled conditions are
predicted on both sides of the line.
The southwestern movement con-
tinued in volume and the spot grain
met with a good cash price there,
but cash markets weer lower here
and at Minneapolis. partly because
of the lack OF export business.
Corn closed fractionally lower for
the July and December deliveries.
but registered slight advance on
September. This pit followed wheat
to large extent, but di dnot pos
sess the recuperative abilities of the
major pit. Receipts were larger so
the cash article was quoted about
half a cent lower.
July oats were fractionally lower,
but the other positions failed to re-
cord any change.
Provisions closed a. little higher,
despite some selling of small lots of
lard.
