About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text, images, or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1851. Not illustrated.

Wreathing the trailing arbutus in her hair and making a baldric of the ground-laurel, with a wooden yoke stretched across her shoulders she carries two pails full of sap from the trees to the boiler. With a stick having a bit of pork on the end, she graduates the walloping sirup when it is likely to overflow, while her brother brings more sap from the remote and less accessible part of the camp. The neighbors, boys and girls, come in at the "sugaring off;" the "wax " is freely distributed to be cooled on lumps of snow or the axe-head; some toss it about in long, flexile, fantastic lines, some get their mouths burnt, all are merry. Her mother " stirs it off," and a due quantity of the " quick " and "alive " crystal sweet is the result, ...
