THE CANADA LUMBERMAN August, 1904 THE Wood-Worker ana Ketaller UTILIZING SMALL PIECES.

By this I mean all cuttings that will not make short panels or stiles and rails for panel won<, drawer slides, backs or bottoms. I have a place lor each kind of wood, also for each thickness. The only place to sort ends and sate handling is at the cutter. When I get this bin full of common ends, I have a load of No 4 common pine run in for long pieces or bottoms for the core bun- dles. This is surfaced two sides to J^inch and ripped to 4 and 6 inches wide. The common ends are also ripped and dressed to the same dimensions.

Am careful to break joints in building up the bundles, so as to make a strong stile. SUGGESTIONS FOR THE PREVENTION OF ACCIDENTS. A journal published in the interest of casualty insurance makes some practical suggestions, both to employers and employees, which, if adopted, would certainly lessen the awful list of casualties to life and limb caused by machin- ery in motion : All belts passing through floors, or vertical shafting operating through floors, should be cased in to the height of at least 4 feet. See that belts do not have ragged places and that the lacing or hooking is O. K. Shafting beneath machine tables and all other shafting operating on or near floor should be covered. Loose pulleys should be used wherever pos- sible, so as to
