Machinery for Making Seotion Boxee, 


There is such a demand for Saws and Mandrels for 
| this purpose, that I have been obliged to have them 
made expressly for the work. -A & ©, Part II, con- 
siders the whole matter. A mandrel, suitable for 
holding the whole 8 saws-at once, must be very 
strong and heavy, or you will have much trouble 
with the bearings getting hot. Such a eer ae = 
cluding 3 in. saws and washers, will cost $_0.00. 

only 4 saws, a lighter mandrel will do, and the mate 
rig will cost $16.00, with 4inch saws. A single saw 
can be run on the light $5.00 mandrel, and the entire 
expense will be only $6.50. ‘The latter can be sent 
by mail. for 70c. extra. Four inch saws, $1.50 each; 
5 in. $2.00 each. Steel washers accurately ground to 
go between saws, 50e. each, . . 1, ROOT.

Implements for the Apiary. 


No, 1, shows a See Hive, single story, with the Enameled Cloth removed, so as to show the 
10 frames in place e Chaff Cushion is shown in the cover, where it is fastened by & or 10 tacks 
around the edge. You will observe that when the Crshion is thus fastened in the cover, we 
are obliged to have the Enameled Cloth shown at No. 8. fitted closely over the frames that the 
bees mav not get to the Cushion, or it would be stuck so tightly to the frames that we could never 
get. the hive oven, For wintering. a much thicker enshion is used. unquilted, and placed in an 
upper story. This Hive is shown with the entrance closer, by pushing it back squarely on the bot- 
tom board, whi'e Nos. 2 and 3 are pushed forward eo as to give a % inch passage for the bees. No.
