And Still 

 They Come 



The following letter from one of our cus- 

 tomers demonstrates in his own words the 

 satisfaction our customers receive. Remem- 

 ber this is only one of the many thousands 

 we receive. 



Griggs Bros., Taltdc, 0.: — I received the hives and 

 supplies to-day, which is the quickest I ever got goods 

 afterordering. Theymusthavecomeoverinthe Knaben 

 shue's airship. They certainly are in fine shape — ut- 

 terly impossible for any thing to have got lost. 



Your shipping-cleric had them packed to perfection. 

 Respectfully, Hugh Richardson, 

 Wood Co., O.

 be convinced. TOLEDO is the place to buy, we save our 

 customers annually thousands of dollars in freight.

The perforated side grate seen above holds a 

 removable, metal, asbestos-backed fire shell, 

 preventing burning the tin off the outer case, 

 and deflects the air at right angles, preventing 

 back draft to the valveless bellows. The air, 

 passing to the back and over the top, cools and 

 expels the smoke, fanning the burning fuel at 

 top or side till all consumed, giving cool smoke 

 for hours from one filling. It can't clog. No 

 top-heavy cap to choke with soot ; no valve to 

 fail ; no holes shedding sparks or hot ashes. 



Four years' sales prove its success beyond a 

 doubt, expensive dies making it uniformly per- 

 fect as possible to devise. We confidently guar- 

 antee full satisfaction or refund the price. 



Price, $1 .00 ; 3 for $2.50 ; by mail, add 25c. each

 or Medina, O. 



Mr. T. S. Hall, Jasper, Qa., breeder of fine Italian 

 queens, writes, June 11, 190S: "The three smokers came 

 all O. K., and they are dandies, sure; are good sm<>k= 

 ers. We burn corn-cobs in them all light. We may 



send you orders for smokers, as several have expressed a 

 desire for one." 



Dr. R. Munson, Washington, D. C, says: "Your 

 new smoker has a much stronger blast than the first one. 

 I have been using the first one with a roll of newspaper, 

 first starting the fire at the bottom, and it works finely that 

 way, and stays lit all day. Firing it up at 8 A. M. and 

 using it half an hour in my queen-rearing hives, and, 

 setting it aside, I usually find it still smoking ready for 

 use at 4 or 5 p. M."
