AMERICAN IMPROVED JO-IN. FOUR-SIDED MOULDER. The improved four-sided moulder illustrated herewith is a very heavy machine, capable of working mouldings 10" wide, 5" thick, on four sides. The frame is cast solid in one piece, well braced and perfectly rigid, with lowered 12" on ball bearings. The tail-piece in rear of under head swings vertically out of the way. The top head has a lateral adjustment, while the under head has lateral and vertical adjustments, and is provided with sliding throat-plates and chip-breaker in the table. The journal boxes are placed on an incline so that the belts pull more on the bottom of the boxes. The inside and outside head?tocks have vertical and horizontal adjustments and may be set to an angle. They are both attached to the table, avoiding any pos- sible vibration. The inside head is provided with chip- breaker and take-up, and the outside head has an ad- justable spring chip-breaker, Boih spindles run on be furnished by the American Wood Working Machin- ery Co., the Levi Houston Co. branch, Liberty street, New York.

An outside bearing is provided for the top arbor, firmly clamped to the frame, and is adjustable for lining up when necessary. The feed consists of two 5^" top rolls and two 6" bottom rolls, all powerfully driven by heavy gearing. The top rolls are raised by means of a lever which per- mits the operator to place a form for setting the knives and withdrawing the work from the cutters when de- sirable. The table is clamped to the frame at the front end, at the outside bearing and at the rear end, and may be self-oiling steps. All cylinder pulleys are pneumatic. The hood over the top head is adjustable to and from the cutters, and the pressure-foot or chip-breaker is hinged on the hood, with springs in the hinge to avoid vibration. The pressure-foot in rear of top head is sectional, adjustable horizontally and vertically, hinged, and can be swung over the top of frame. The pressure-foot over under head is also sectional, and is fastened to table independent of frame, thus prevent- ing all vibration.

STANDARD APPLE BOX. In June, 1906, an act making a uniform sized apple box will become effective in Canada. This box is ten by ten by twenty-two inches inside measure ; it con- tains twenty-two hundred cubic inches, which is one bushel or about one-third of a barrel. Smaller sized boxes are recommended for South Africa, France and Germany.
