Bringing in maple sap to the sugar house. Frank H. Shurtleff farm, North Bridgewater, Vermont. He has a 400 acre farm originally purchased by his grandfather in 1840. He raises sheep, cows, cuts lumber. He has been making maple syrup for about thirty-five years, and "sugaring" usually brings in about one thousand dollars annually. Because of the deep snow, this year he only tapped 1000 trees, instead of 2000. He expects to make about 300 to 500 gallons this year. Sourced from the Library of Congress.
