Vermont maple sugar manufacturers face no bounty this year as Attorney General Miller concludes the new tariff act cannot authorize licenses before April 1, 1891 and thus cannot trigger bounty payments for sugar produced between March 31 and July 31, 1891. He warns that allowing earlier licenses would unfairly discriminate in favor of maple sugar.
