  • THIS WEEK’S COVER
    • Knowing nothing on earth about maple sirup except that we wish we had a few gallons of it, we tapped Mead Schaeffer, this week’s cover artist, hung a bucket on him and told him to give. Well, he said, it takes forty to forty-five buckets of sap to make one bucket of the sirup which is obtained by boiling and skimming the sap which flows from the trees. The sap itself tastes like water, and Vermonters often use it instead of water to make coffee. The models are Arlington, Vermont, neighbors of Mr. Schaeffer’s, Mr. and Mrs. Jim Edgerton and their children. The Edgertons own one of the best sugar bushes—a bush is a grove of sugar trees—in that section. The shed in the background is the boiling-off house. Vermont farmers can, and do, argue for hours and days over what is the best time to tap. The season starts as early as February and may end as late as April.
