A. G. Woodman Co.: 



Last winter I bought a copper Big Smoke Smoker 

 with shield of you and in July took the same to the 

 Chenango County beekeepers ' picnic and entered 

 the Smoker contest. There were nine contestants 

 and the Big Smoke won the prize, which was a fine 

 queen bee. Needless to say, I was very proud of 

 the victory. They gave us one minute, and at the 

 expiration of thirty-five minutes the Big Smoke was 

 the only one burning. They called it ' ' Steam 

 Boiler." However, it won and thought I would in- 

 form you. C. F. Bushnell. 



Tlie contestants were allowed to use any fuel 

 tliey desired and as much or as little of it as 

 thought advisable. The contestants were given 

 one minute in which to light their smokers, then 

 let set for thirty minutes. At the end of this 

 period, the one that smoked best in thirty seconds 

 won the prize.

 Section Fixer 



One of our men, with the Section Fixer, puts 

 up 500 sections with top starters, in one hour and 

 thirty minutes, 500 sections set up with top starters 

 in ninety minutes. This includes the labor of cut- 

 ting foundation, getting sections and supers and 

 placing the sections into the supers and carrying 

 them away. A complete job. This is nothing un.- 

 usual, but his regular speed. You can do the 

 same if you have tlie push after you become ac- 

 customed to the work. There is no breakage of 

 sections. It will pay you to secure one of these 

 machines for this work. Tt is the best thing of 

 tlie kind on the market.
