T. F. BINQHAH, FARWELL, HICH. 



to invent and make a bee-smoker that 

 would burn sound wood, and go all the 

 time without puffing. It has been the 

 World's Standard for 26 years. Bing- 

 ham invented all the patented improve- 

 ments in bee-smokers, and uncapping- 

 knif e for his own use in his own apiary. 



Oxford, O., Sept. 30, 1878. 

 Your smoker has been in daily use 

 for months in a friend's apiary. He is 

 enthusiastic in its praise, and, after 

 seeing how greatly it facilitates the 

 handling of bees, 1 heartily endorse all 

 he says of it. L. L. Langstroth.
