It's good," Mthrough the many forests of the ancient province of Quebec. Every train coming into Windsor Station, Montreal, from the Eastern Townships brings increasing sup- plies of maple syrup. In assorted containers, in cans, kegs, cream bot- tles, jars, orates, gallon tins, in every conceivable shape or form, the deli- cious- liquid comes pouring through the gateway of the Canadian metro- polis. Similar shipments pour into the Place Viger Station from the famous ,Laurentian mountains dur- ing the months ofi March. and April every year. This spring the cold !winds slowed up the supply early in ,April, but by the end of the unonth larger amounts were received, the peak being reached usually about the last week of April. teSugaring parties make the moon- lain Wildernesses ring with their Shouts every week -end during the 'second month of spring.
