Why I Winter in the Cellar 



(Continued from page 262) 



use six inch tile from front corner 

 of cellar to outlet 100 feet away 

 if possible, this for ventilator as 

 well as drain. I would also build 

 brick chimney from cellar floor at 

 back end to above roof, have this 

 at least 2x2 % bricks in size, leav- 

 ing a flue about 0x13 inches with 

 opening at floor of cellar. If you 

 build wall six feet from front end 

 outside and fill in with earth the 

 vestibule would not be needed. I 

 would strongly advise that you do 

 this, as your cellar would accommo- 

 date more bees and give better re- 

 sults. I would not have any wind- 

 owis in cellar. If you build wall out 

 side of front end and fill in as 

 recommended and do not have vesti- 

 bule as shown in drawing then I 

 would put a double door vdth air 

 space in each (two thickness of 

 matched lumber with air space be- 

 tween) at I each end of alley 

 through earth filling. This would 

 be a big advantage since entrance 

 is lOn north end and exposed. In 

 building a bee cellar always remem- 

 ber that it is getting it entirely 

 under ground that makes it most 

 easy to control temperature as well 

 as to avoid dampness. 



The Goldenrod or White Cover — Which? 



We copy a part of a letter from 

 Vice President Pellett under date 

 ol Aug. 9th. as follows: 



You recently asked through the 

 Review for expressions concerning 

 the cover. At Mt. Pleasant the mat- 

 ter was discussed among those pres- 

 ent and nearly everybody seemed 

 to prefer the white cover and the 

 general appearance of the Maga- 

 zine as it was in the spring num- 

 bers. Few seem to like the yellow 

 and some dislike it seriously. If all 

 your readers are like the Iowa fel- 

 lows that I have heard express 

 themselves the white cover will 

 prove much more popular. 



It costs the Review nearly a 

 hundried dollars a year to finance 



the National. This should not be 



so. A fee sufficient to cover all 



regular expenses should be levied 



upon each member.
