BANISTER. THE AMERICAN SWEET TOOTH And Some of the Maple Syrups That Go to Satisfy It From Harper1 Weekly The Bureau of Forestry has been studying the maple-sugar Industry with the view ot securing a larger use of the maple forests. Since 1830 the are ot maple-sugar farming has greatly changed and shrunk. In early days maple sugar was commonly made oven in many parts of the South, because cane sugar was virtually unobtainable. There is no longer even a limited production in South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas.

This is because cane sugar can now be bought everywhere at a low price, and Is preferred to maple sugar for sweetening. In Indiana, Michigan and Illinois tho maple trees have been extensively cut for lumber, thus reducing the opjiortunity for treetapping. In those States also the markets are glutted with Imitations, which remove the Incentive to extending the industry. In other States, however, as In western Maryland. West Virginia, Ohio, New Tork and In New England, the maple-sugar industry has held lu own or been Increased.

As a result of the study recently made, definite directions for the management and Improvement of existing groves, and for the establishment of new ones In suitable localities and under different conditions, have been prepared and will soon be published. Many valuable data regarding the profit In making maple sugar were also prom in mnama nwpiv nqir were aiao collected. From these It appears that a farmer can easily clear about 93 an acre from a sugar grove. The expenses in this estimate are placed at a maximum; all the labor and hauling are charged In at market rates, though as a matter of fact the sugar season falls at a time when the farmer has little other employment for himself or his torses. The most common substitutes used in the adulteration of maple sugar and syrup are other sugars and glucose.

Much of the so-called maple syrup on the market Is nothing but a combination of sweets with little maple molasses added to give the maple flavor. There Is also a maple syrup which contains no maple at all, hut the flavor Is obtained by adding to the compound an extract of hickory bark. This extensive adulteration forces the producers of pure maple syrup to compete with cheap Imitations. The price of their raw product Is kept down, and the forests of maple are not so profitable to their owners as they otherwise might be. AKGEVITXE FOREIGX TRADE From U.
