BINGHAM 



Bee Smoker 



Prof. Cook, in hiB valuable Manual of the Apiarv, 

 states that " Mr. Bingham was the first to improve 

 the old Quinby smoker by estabhshing a direct 

 draft." Five years of peraistentefforthaa demon- 

 strated that no one but Bingham has been able to 

 improve a Binehnm smoker. Hundreds of Bing- 

 ham smokers have been in use live years, and are 

 yet in working order. They burn lots ol blocks 

 and chips and stufl". and make lots of smoke and 

 comfort, and have no dampers or match-box at- 

 tachments, as they never go out or fail to blow 

 smoke up or down or sideways, much or little, 

 swift or stow, just as yoH please, any or all the 

 time; top up or di'wn, they always so! 



Bee-keepers will save money and vexation by 

 buying genuine Bingliara smokers and Bingham & 

 lietheringlon Uncapping-Knives tirst. "We neither 

 make nor handle any oiher supplies; but «>f these 

 we are the original inventors, and only legal 

 makers, and have had over 4.D,i)ofl in use Irom one 

 to five years, and receiving but one letter of com- 

 plaint. 



Witn European and American orders already 

 received for over :i.<X)0, there is evidence that 18-S4 

 with us is not likely to be an idle one. Also that 

 Buchgiiods as we make have met the advanced 

 wants of the mist advanced bee-keepers in Eu- 

 rope and America.

 celebrated German authority, by II. Dieck and S. 

 Stutterd, and edited, with notes, by Charles N. 

 Abbott, Ex.-e6/itor of the "British Bee Joiirmil." 

 Dr. Dzierzon is one of the greatest living authori- 

 ties on Bee Culture. To him and the Baron of 

 Berlepsch we are indebted for much that is 

 known of scientific bee culture. Concerning this 

 book. Prof. Cook says: "As the work of one of 

 the great masters, the Langstroth of Germany, it 

 can but find a warm welcome on this side of the 

 Atlantic." Mr. A. I. Hoot says of it: "Old father 



Dzierzon has probably made greater strides in 



acientitic apiculture than any one man... For real 

 Bcientific value, it would well repay any bee- 

 keeper whose attention is at all inclined to scien- 

 tific research, to purchase a copy. Cloth, !»S.
