Gallery›Digital Commonwealth — Boston Public Library›No More Pails-Plastic tubing is taking much of the drudgery out of harvesting maple sap. In top photo farmer Theron G. Tuthill and his daughter, Judy, 14, are stringing tubing from tree to tree on their farm at Alstead, N. H. In the center they inspect a connection in their plastic pipe line. At bottom Tuthill checks the flow of sap. Tuthill also fires his evaporators with oil instead of wood.
