HOW THE MAPLE SUGAR INDUS- TRY HAS DWARFED. It is conceded that the day of buck- wheat cakes and maple syrup is pass- ing because the demand for and high price of the maple wood for fuel and cabinet tises of late years has induced their owners to turn the maple grove over to the woodsman for immediate large returns. There was a time within the mem- ory of many when the wood and tim- ber was 80 cheap that the farmer could afford to keep his thousand well grown trees and annually draw from them not only the year's supply of sweetening for the family table, but reap a tidy income in addition. But the more strictly staple sugars have steadily declined in price from the old days, and the maple trees have as steadily gained in value, so- between the two conditions the old-fashioned industry has been steadily on the wane. Once we were reascnably cer- tain that the article which passed by that name was genuine because the pure pfoduct was cheaper than the adulteration. Under the protection of the pure food laws We may flatter ourselves that are again getting the real thing, yet the maple sugar of today seems to lack the delicate flavor of forty years ago. That was also {he opiniofl of the late Senator Proctor of Vermont, who, like most natives of that state, was an expert Whose judg- ment could not safely be challenged. The Boston Transeript, noting th change, say; , “Vermonters continue to indulge in sugar parties but they generally hold them in a Boston hotel. Yet it is to Vermont and northern and twestern New York that we have still to turn to enjoy a survival of the industry in its true colors. There are still sugar camps to be found, but we-have to search for them. Not 50 vety long ago maple sugar was a crop in west- ern Massachusetts. Now a few draw upon their remaining trees for an an- nual taste of the ancient dellcacy, but the result no longer burdens the sta- tistics. The. maple syrup and the buck- wheat cakes of gur fathers seem go- ing out together. They were made for each other and they are not likely to be long ‘separated, It is aoubtful whether a hotel in Boston could fur- nish the old-fashloned buckwhenat cake. It may still be found in coun- try places, but it is no longer homored in the cities. When the two shall have passed, one of the finest features of eountry living will become extinct.” EDITORIAL NOTES, The blind senator from Oklahoma did not need eyes to see the kind of a man Chairman Sherman was. .

Eyery imaginable material is used in the making of scarfs, and these are no longer simply long and straight, but are adjusted to fit the shoulders by plaits and shirrings under hand- some ornaments. Shaping a_Capuchon hood in the back, or 3 Bourneouse loop, this new manner of adjusting the scarf adds grace and dignity even to an ungainly figure. Like an overgarment, nearly covering, but hiding nothing, of the toilette beneath, this adjusment gives opportunty for a charming play of graceful arms and hands, and, left alone, thé filmy fabric clings to the figure or floats airily with every move- ment. Besides the perfect grace of it, this is ‘an excellent device to en a toilétte that has begun to show signs of wear. Graceful Adhere to the Most Becoming Colors.
