On dozen or half-dozen lots of one kind, we 

 allow '2.") per cent, discount, and prepaj' 

 postaire. Special rates on larger quantities, 

 g"iven upon application. 



Prof. Cook, in his Tuluable Manual of the Apiarv, 

 states that "Mr. Binirhani was the first to improve 

 the olfl Quinby snioker by establishing a direct 

 draft." Five years of persistentefforthas demon- 

 atrated thiil no i>ne but Bini^ham has been able to 

 improve a BiiiKhani ^m(.fker. Hundreds of Bine- 

 ham smokers have been in use five years, and are 

 yet in working i»rder. They burn lots of blocks 

 and chips and stnfl'. 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 

 emoke up or dnwn or sideways, muclLor Httle, 

 swift or slow, jn>t as y()a please, any or all the 

 time; top up or down, they always go! 



Bee-keepers wi'l save money and vexation by 

 buying genuine Bingham smokers and Bingham & 

 Hetherington Uncapping-Knives first. We neither 

 make nor handle any other supplies; but -if these 

 we are the original inventors, and only legal 

 makers, and have had over 45,iK>0 in use irom one 

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

 plaint. 



With European and American orders already 

 received for over :j,(hk:>. there is evidence that 18«4 

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

 such goods as we make have met the advanced 

 wants of the nnstadvanced bee-keepers in Eu- 

 rope and America.
