An Old Business Sold.

Guy p. Metcaf and Moses S. Craig
purchased the Summerville Wood Yard
of George W. Young last week Thurs
day, and by the sale occurs the transfer
of an old established and very successful
business.
Mr.. Young has been dealing in wood
for over 40 years and only last week
sold to a patron who bought of him Al
years ago. He has lived on farm in
Waterford many years, bringing wood
from there most OF the time. 1t was a
constant desire with him to see estab
ished in st. Johnsbury wood yard
that would be successfully sarried on.
With this end in view he moved to Sum-
mervile eight years ago and purchased
small lot OF land near the Ely Hoe 4
Fork Works. where he erected some
sheds and began to do business in
small way. His patronage rapidly in
creased and nearly two years ago he
purchased the wood yard Of Frank b.
Simonds, which was situated directly
opposite, hiring Mr.. Simonds to work
for him. Since that time the business
has increased to such an extent that to-
day it is one OF the best appointed yards
IN town. Mr.. Young always conducted
his business in way to secure more pat
ronage and when a customer came once
he returned second time.
The business at the present time
handles from 1000 to 1900 cords of hard
and soft wood each year. Several hands
are employed to do the work and it has
been one OF the many growing enter
prises that have sprung up in Summer.
vile, making that locality one of the
hustling sections of the village during
the past few years.
The parties who have purchased the
business are young men OF ability, and
with the established trade which Mr..
Young has left them and honest, upright
dealings on their part, they should in
crease their trade as much in the next
few years as it has been increased in the
past.
Mr.. Young has grown old in the wood
business and finding his work assuming
such proportions, decided that change
was necessary. He is not fully decided
as yet what he will do, but has in view
the sale OF rolling screen.

There has been one, who under the

pains to mark each hives stand. To do
this without trouble, we leave the cap
or cover with the roof over it in the ex-
act spot occupied by the hive and re-
move only the brood chamber to the
cellar. In this manner the hives occupy
much smaller space, and it is easier to
give them good ventilation, which is
absolutely necessary to keep the combs
from molding, if the cellar is at all
damp.
We pile the hives in the cellar, two
or three or even four tiers high, usually
putting the lower tier on timbers
raised foot or so from the ground. We
have always noticed that the colonies
nearest the ground were the ones that
suffered, if any did.
After the hives are in, darkness, quiet
ness, proper temperature and sui
ficient amount of ventilation are all
that are necessary. For these hives, as
we'll as for those that are out in cold
days, it is a great point to have every
thing perfectly quiet. The man who
will disturb his bees every other day,
Just to see whether they are still alive,
will be unsuccessful, if the circum-
stances are at all unfavorable, for it is
very easy to kill the bees with too much
kindness of this sort.
To give air without light to our bee
cellar we have devised sort of blind,
a picture of which is here shown, taken
from "Langstroth Revised. "
The time of removal of the bees in
the spring is of utmost Importance to
consider. If they are taken out too
early, they may not have occasion to
fly much, and their power of endurance
during late cold seems to have been
taken away from them by their pro-
longed stay in the cellar. They are very

DR.. Miller who said the best time to re-
