Abandoned Sap Buckets-Abandoned temporarily are these sap buckets among the 2,500 hung early in March by Maurice Porter of Langdon, N. H. Three heavy snowfalls followed their hanging and now they remain isolated by the snow. About 75 per cent of the annual yield already has been lost. New Hampshire's maple syrup harvest, normally worth $300,000 may fall to $75,000 this year.
