Miller,, lias a(U)pted avery ingenious plan of emptying the sec- be. For the sake of strengtli it is cleated onthe under side with i pieces. Its dimensionsshould be a trifle smaller than the inside di-mensions of the super, so that it may notbind wlien crowding out the sections. Asuitable frame sup])orts the bearing-board tothe pr()i)er heiglit. In order to place the su-per squarely over this bearing-ljoard, with-out looking imder to see whether it is in theright place. Dr. Miller has arranged a boxaround the bearing-board, at such a distancefrom it that, when the super is lifted upin one corner of said box, a downward i)res-sure on the super will crowd it down on thebearing-board squarely. One of his methodsof emptying his super is illustrated below. A SIMPLER MKiIIOD OF EMPTYING T SUPERS. The machine for taking sections out of T. HOW DR. C. C. MILLER iiEMOVES FILLED SECTIONS FUOM THE T SUPER. tions from the T super, enmasse. To accom-l)lish this, all that is necessary is to constructa suitable follower, or a bearing-ljoard. This,puslied from below, will crowd the sectionsout at once, together with the T tins, whichare not made stationary, pressure being ex-erted upon tlie ends of the super. The man-ner of accomplishing the operation will by the engraving above. The bearing-board is shown in front of thetable. You will notice that the two sidesare notched out, in order to avoid, in thejtassage upward, the little i>ieces of stra]jiron, or V)ent wire staples, as tlie case may siqiers as shown abo\e, although itsuse is e
