IhrouRh the cellar window, continue it down 

 the side of the wall and across the cellar bot- 

 tom, leaving at every 4 or 5 feet a 2-inch bole 

 on top in the pipe to deliver fresh air. Then, 

 continue a like pipe across the ceiling with 

 small openings like the long pipe, and if con- 

 venient, lead it to some chimney or flue, other-

 a height of 6 feet or more. 



By doing this you will procure perfect cir-

 match at any one of the intake holes in the 

 pipe, you will nearly extinguish the light by 

 the drift. 



It is a small expense to fit up this way. 

 One-half the cost of one colony of bees will 

 pay for the pipe. 



Of course you will get some condensation 

 in the intake pipe, and water will form, but 

 by slanting the pipe and leaving a drain it 

 will amount to practically nothing. 



The pipe can be preserved by getting two 

 quarts of asphaltum, worth say -SI. 00 per gal- 

 lon. Make a trough long enough for a length 

 of pipe to lay in, and submerge each pipe. 

 When this is dry rust will not penetrate. It 

 is useless to bring in a pipe or leave a window 

 open, thinking you can get an equal distribu-
