AND SMOKEB COBNEB, 



Will contain a short card from some one every 

 month. See Bellows Smoker card on another page. 



Oxford, O., Sept. 30, 1878. 

 Mr. T. F. Bingham— Dear Sir : Excuse the long de- 

 lay in the acknowledgment of your courtesy in send- 

 ing me one of your smokers. It is only within a very 

 short time that I have been able, for nearly two 

 years, to take any interest in bee matters. Your 

 smoker hius been in daily use for some months in a 

 friend's apiary. He is enthusiastic in its praise, and 

 after seeing how greatly it facilitates the handling of 

 bees, I can most heartily endorse all that he says of it. 

 Yours, very truly, L. L. Langstkoth. 



We have many reports from the new uncapping 

 knives, all of which state that they are a great im- 

 provement, doing much more and better work than 

 any other knife.
