BINGHAM 



Bee Smoker 



Plot. Cook.in his Taluable Manual of the Apiarv, 

 states ihai " Mr. Bingham was the first to improve 

 the old Quinby smofeer by estab'ishing a direct 

 draft-" Five years of persistent effort has demon- 

 strated that no (ne but Binghnm has been able to 

 improve a Binehiim smtiker. Hundreds of Bing- 

 ham smokers have been in use five years, and are 

 yet in working order. 'I'hey hum lots of blocks 

 and chips and stuff, 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, mneh or little, 

 swift or slow, just as yon please, any or all the 

 time; top up or down, they always Eo.' 



Bee-keepers will save money and vexation by 

 buying eenuine Bingham smokers and Bingham & 

 Hetheringion Uncapping-Knives first. "We neither 

 make nor handle any other supplies; but of these 

 we are the original inventors, and only legal 

 makers, and have had over 45,000 in use irom one 

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

 plaint. 



Witb European and American orders already 

 received for over 3.(.*<K there is evidence that 1884 

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

 such goods as we make have met the advanced 

 wants of the mi st advanced bee-keepers in Eu- 

 rope and America.
