lift PRODICTION OF MAPLE SUGAR The Bureau of Forestry Seeks to Develop and Extend the Industry The Bureau of Forestry has been studying the maple sugar industry with the view of securing a larger use of the maple forests Since 1S50 the area oi maple sugar farming has greatly chang ed and shrunk In early days maple sugar was commonly made even in many parts of the South because cane sugar was virtually unobtainable No longer is there even a limited produc tion in South Carolina Georgia Alaba ma Mississippi Louisiana and Arkan sas This is because cane gugar can now be bought everywhere at a low price and is preferred to maple sugar for sweetening In Indiana Michigan and Illinois the maple trees have been extensively cut for lumber thus reduc ing the opportunity for tree tapping In those States also the markets are glutted with imitations which removes the incentive to extending the industry In other States as in western Mary land West Virginia Ohio New York and in New England the maple sugar industry has held its own or been in creased The best sap How is secured in the cooler northern States yet good results can

Skim Milk as Food lb Nutritive Elements Underestimated Many Ways in Which it May be Used in the Diet Skim milk is a very economical food material in the opinion of experts in the department and might well be more largely used as human foodthis in spite of the fact that it is ninetenths water The argument for economy is based on the price at which it is usually sold and upon the composition of the remaining tenth or the nutritive portion Whole milk as everyone knows is an indispensable food for the young and even in the diet of the adult it is com paratively economical The only nutrient taken from it in skimming is the butter fat There is left therefore in the skim milk not only all of the sugar which amounts to about 4 12 parts in every 100 and all of the mineral substances but also all of the protein The last named substance is important because besides serving as fuel for the body as fats sugars and starches do it also supplies nitrogenous tissuebuilding ma terial The proportion of protein in skim milk as well as of the mineral constitu ents which are also

Railway Map of Jamaica.

This map, produced in the 1920s by the Transportation Department of the United States Department of Commerce, shows the railroads and rail stations of Jamaica, at that time a crown colony within the British Empire. Also shown are the island's main roads and its three counties--Cornwall, Middlesex, and Surrey--and their borders. The scale of the map is in statute miles (1 mile = 1.61 kilometers). The Western Jamaica Connecting Railway was built in 1845. Running from Kingston to Angels, a distance of some 23 kilometers, it was the first railroad constructed anywhere outside Europe or North America. The Jamaican railroad system was expanded throughout the 1900s, mainly for the purpose of bringing sugar and other products to the ports of Kingston, Port Antonio, and Montego Bay. Expansion of the railway in the late-19th century opened up the interior of the country to farming and the establishment of banana and citrus plantations. The map is held in the Columbus Memorial Library of the Organization of American States (OAS). After approximately 300 years of British rule, Jamaica gained its independence in 1962. It joined the OAS in 1969.

Railroad Map of British Honduras.

This map, produced in the 1920s by the Transportation Department of the United States Department of Commerce, shows the railroad network of British Honduras (present-day Belize). Under the Treaty of Versailles of 1783, the Spanish Empire granted Britain the right to harvest timber in the region between the Hondo and Belize Rivers. In 1862 the crown colony of British Honduras was established. Apart from British Guiana, it was the only British possession on the mainland of Latin America. The colony was important to Britain chiefly as a source of logwood and, later, mahogany. The railroads shown on the map are all quite small and were used primarily to transport lumber, sugar cane, and bananas to the coast. A proposed longer line from the port of Belize to Guatemala is indicated but was never built. The map also shows the colony's six administrative districts and the small number of towns and cities. British Honduras achieved full independence in 1981, becoming the country of Belize.
