Maple Syrup Prices Went To Extremes Last Few Years
FLUCTUATING PRICES

turns or may sell it at rock-bot- tom prices and perhlllll dim!!! the market permanently.
"Until recently buyefl 190' erally seP reasonable prices and the farmer was able to dispose of his product and still make I profit." said Jules lliethot. chief of the Quebec agriculture t1eDIl1- ment's maple products division.
Three years ago a price WI! started between two United Stltel . mpanies who buy IBIS! quan- tities of syrup for flavoring to- bacco. Farmers who Waited Sold syrup, which normally brought from 82 to 84 a gallon. for more than 86. On a 400-gallon crop- the yield of a fair-sized maple stand-a farmer made nearly 32,- 500. twice as much as usual.
"That's where the trouble be- gan.” said Mr. Methot in an in- terview. "The next year farmers held back their crop and what they couldn't sell for high prices they held back. The situation went even further last year when they asked 37 to 810 a.galIon- out of all reason."
Mr. Methot explained that by then the American companies had settled their war and prices fell. An 8.000-pound surplus was sold eventually. but for far less than the standard price.
Now most of Quebec's 22,000.- 000 maples have yielded their sap for this year and the province hopes to stabilize the industry. But it faces some obstacles. SCATTERED OPERATION
The Quebec industry. which produces 85 per cent of Canada's harvest. is a small and scattered operation. Apart from one co-op- e r a t i v e at Plessisville. each
farmer conducts his own bus- IIIPSS. And substitute products are
crowding store shelves.
"Buyers who don't know the difference could wreck the Que- bec Industry, unless our products are priced and packaged com-
petitively." said Mr. Methot. The department is pressing for new ways of putting up syrup.
Plan To Doppler Effect Of Tornadoes
Edllefa note: The deadly ter-
mna'a battle against the
weather. I! FRANK CAREY
WASHINGTON (AP)-The U.S. weather bureau is planning a var- iation of the "radar speed cop" technique in a new attempt to de- tect turnadoea before their deadly funnels can be seen by the human
eye. -
The plan is to try to apply to the sleuthing of tornadoes-the most violent of all storms-the same kind of radar set that copl use to detect a speeding motorist on the hIghway- It's called a "doppler effect" radar.
Bureau tornado hunters plan to have the radar ready by June, normally the ginning of the maximum tornado season. l HEAVY COST
Scientists at Cornell University are modifying the radar for the bureau in this newest electronic
Traditional gallon cans are being scrapped for one pound tins which can be emptied before flavor deteriorates. A strict grad- ing system is to be started. And the farmer is being urged to ex- pand his sales as much as pos- sible to local markets, "where he knows the demand. the buyer knows the. product. and a fair price is a simple matter."
The picture has still another side. Maple-sugarintz has come out of the bush and grown into an up-to-date. mechanized opera- tion. with surer results but higher overhead.
Instead of beitig boiled In kettles on otttdoor fires. sap is processed about 10 times as quickly in 5700 aluminum evapor- ators. and the farmer has become accustomed to selling about half his crop for export.
Many observers doubt whether he will take kindly to suggestions of a "smaller and betlcr prod- ucl." concentrating on the village storekeeper instead of huge con- cerns across the border.
used speed ts. Bureau pclentlats believe the speedier these air blasts are. the more severe the thunderstorm- and if there were some way of clocking .them by electronic means. it might be possible to say immediately whether an on. coming storm was: ill "in storm; (2i A hail storm; or ts; A potential tornado.
CALL THEM CLOSER
Meanwhile. the bureau says its record on forecasting tornadoes before they actually develop 1. steadily improving.
It's not yet possible to predict the exact spot where a twister will develop. But the bureau issuer forecasts of tornado possibilities in areas averaging approximately 20,000 square miles in size.
"Our goal." says Harry Altman of the bureau's severe-storm sec- tion. "is to reduce the forecast area to an average of 10,000 square miles and provide advance notice up to six hours."
At present. advance notice of tornado possibilities within a 20,. 000 - square - mile area usually
ranges from one to three hours.
