is where there undoubtedly is as much

A NeU and Good LnUention-T agent,
Mr.. E. S. Taylor, has shown US a model of
what is called the Pyramid or Union Bee
Hive which strikes US as being all that can
be desired in an article of that kind As its
name indicates it is of pyramid shape, the hive
being when ready for use, 16 inches high, Is
inches in diameter at the bottom, and s inches
at the top. Another box Is inches high which
is used as chamber by the bees. in which they
deposit their honey in boxes prepared to receive
it, is fitted closely and nailed at the bottom to
the inside box. The hive when complete COM
bines many advantages not possessed by any
other of our acquaintance. and we have no
doubt will be found to answer all the purposes
claimed for it by its inventor. We certainly
regard it as the best planned and most philo-
sophical hive we ever saw, and are confident
that it need only to be seen by those interested
in such matters to secure their good opinion
We cannot undertake to give such an explana-
ton of it in this article as to convey a full and
correct idea Of its workings, and point out the
advantages it possesses over the ordinary hives
now in use. Persons DESTROYS of seeing the
model or learning further particulars concern
ing it, can do so upon application to Mr.. Tay-
Tor, who is now in town and stopping for a few
days at the Exchange.
