Begin Tapping
Maple Trees As
Sap Flow Starts
Harvesting Annual Crop Is Underway
‘As Spring Nears—1931 Will Be
Average Year Or Better
‘With the maple sugar season in full
swing, reports of district fresters to
the Pennsylvania Department of For-
ests and Waters, particularly from the
northern part of the State, indicate
that 1931 will be an average year or
better, although the output of maple
products is not expected to reach the
peak production of 1930, which was
the best in a decade.
More than half a million maple trees
are ordinarily tapped in Pennsylvania,
but even with a similar number of
trees tapped in different years. the
product may vary greatly. Although
the number of trees tapped was the
same in 1929 and 1930, more than twice
as much sugar and almost three times
as much syrup was made in the latter
year, it was pointed out.
The variable yield in maple sap and
; products, depends upon weather condi-
tions, the foresters stated. The season
may last anywhere from two to eight
weeks, during February and March.
High altitudes.have.the effect of ‘gen-
~ .lerally delaying the advent of, spring
; and prolonging the flow of the sap. In
general, day temperatures rising ‘above
thirty degrees Fahrenheit, frosty
nights and.a slow: changé from winter
‘A region where
the ground. thaws quickly. and the
~|temperature varies little from day to
night, is not suitable.
Production of maple sugar and
syrup, distinctly American products, is
confined chiefly to the “North Woods,”
or beech-birch-maple forests from
Pennsylvania northward through thé
New England States and Canada, and
west to the Lake States. In Pennsyl-
vania, thé ‘imdustry centers in: the
north tier counties, where this type of
forest predominates.
“* Somerset Is Leader
_ Although the north tier counties,’ as
a group, -lead in maple ‘syrup and
sugar production, the southern. border
county of Somerset often tops the list.
The unique position of Somerset county
is attributed to its generally high alti-
tude. with a correspondingly typical
northern climate and abundance of
sugar maple trees, and second because
the “Somerset County Dutch,” having a
special fondness for maple sugar and
syrup, conserved the sugar bush when
converting the virgin forest into farm-
land. Heavy demands of the acid
wood industry upon the beech-birch-
maple forests in the northern part of
the State have depleted the stand of
maple in that section.
The yield of individual maple trees
depends upon their size, location and
quality. Trees under eight and ten
inches are not usually tapped. From
five to forty gallons of sap are ob-
tained from a tree during the season.
One tree can be counted on to produce
one pint to one gallon of syrup or one
to 7 pounds of sugar. A thirty-two
gallon barrel of sap is needed to make
one gallon of syrup or eight pounds of
sugar.

Gardening Is Popular—Small gar
dens are going to play a large part
this year in’ supplying the family ‘lard-
er with food and in decreasing inroads
on the income. Backyard gardens
promise to be especially popular this
year in piecing out. the diet of the un-
employed.
Feed Needy Bees—Colonies which
are ‘short of supplies need food now
for brood rearing. Sugar syrup, made.
by dissolving: one and one-half parts
of white granulated sugar in one part
of hot water, is the most desirable food
for spring feeding.: "The syrup is fed
‘when’ cool. 2
Chicks Eat Early—Feeding ohicks 24
to36 hours after hatching is no longer
considered ‘a harmful practice.
: Prevent Horse .. Sickness—Heavy
feeding and no exercisg¢ on Sunday or
rainy days are ‘bad for horses. Be
sure.to reduce the feed when the work
stock is idle.
Improve Old Lawns — Old
should be gone over carefully at this
time. TUnsightly depressions which
cannot be removed by rolling can be
eliminated -by lifting the sod, filling
with: &ood soil, anr replacing the sod.
Whee: this is not practical, fine loam
can be spread to a depth of three
surface then seéded.
Fertilize
fruit buds wii be aided b application
of a fertilizer high in quickly available
nitrogen, say Penn State fruit specia-
lists.
Save Vegetable. Plants—Damping off
‘of vegetable seedlings can be control-
led by treating seed or soil with chemi-
cal solutions. Ask your county agent
about this.

Fruit Trees —_— Weakened
Growth i,
Upon Feed
Consumption
By Prof. A. G. Philips
As a resuit of an experiment re-
cently conducted at the United States
Animal Husbandry Experiment Farm,
Beltsville, Maryland, and, reported by
Dr. M. A. Jull, of the Department ot
Agriculture, it was proven that feed
consumption by poultry very definitely [t
controls the rate of growth irrespective
of the age of the chicken.
This ‘experiment was conducted to
determine two things: (1) Is it mere
profitable to give chickens access, to,
feed in ‘seli-feeding hoppers ‘at’ all
times, or shoud they be fed certain
amounts at regular intervals? (2)*To
what extent is growth in chickens, in-
fluenced by the amount of feed con-
sumed? . }
The mash fed to all chicks was the
same: 2

In two groups of pullets in the test

one group was almost four times the
average weight of the pullets in the
other group. 2 3
In two pens of cockerels of the same
age, the average weight of the cockrels
in one pen was over five times -the
average weight of the cockerels in the
other.
The difference in average weight was
caused entirely by the difference in the
amount of feed the chicks were given
to eat, and it was found that the rate
of growth was determined almost ab-
solutely by the amount of feed con-
sumed from day to day. The pen of
cockerely and the pen of pullets mak-
ing the greatest gain were fed the
mash in self-feeding hoppers, the birds
