THE SUGAR MAKER’S FlilEND. 
Twenty-five per 
cent more Sugar 
every year, and a 
better auality. from 
POST’S EUREKA 
SAP SPOUTS, 
than from am others, 
is the verdict of over 20,000 Maple Sugar 
Makers that use them. 
IW Their perfect working with the 
utmost satisfaction is guaranteed . Only 
a trial is needed to convince one of their 
superiority over all others. If every Sugar Maker, 
not having tested them, will but tap half his sugar 
bush with the Eureka, the coming Sugar Season, 
a full supply the following season will be the result. 
If there is not an agent in your town, get a good responsible 
Hardware or other dealer, to order a supply 1 at once , and not 
delay it until the season for tapping is upon you. Better 
have them two months in advance than a day too late. I 
will send you Samples Post-paid on receipt of Ten 
Cents. Descriptive Circulars sent free. Address 
at once C. C. POST, Patentee, Burlington, Vt.
