 Xhe Doctor Subdues All — Mr. T. F. 



Bingham, Dear Sir:— I've used the "Doctor" 

 till its all daubed uj) with bee-glue, and al- 

 thoug-h at first sight 1 thought I did not like 

 anything so large, I could not now be induced 

 except by the direst poverty, to do with any- 

 thing smaller. As a matter of "economy" 

 I much i>refer the "Doctor" to any of the 

 cheaper smokers, of which I have worn out 

 several. The "Doctor" has entirely cured 

 me, so that I am now a Bingham man, as my 

 wife always has been. If the somewhat 

 vague remark in your letter means that 

 nothing was charged for the Smoker sent, 

 except the reading of your letter, I shflll be 

 very glad of another "Doctor" for the money 

 sent, so that my wife won't take mine from 

 me. Bees just l)ooming on white clover. 

 Yours Truly, C. C. Miller.

 Abronia, Mich., Dear Sir; — Enclosed find 

 $1.7.^, ft)r which please send, per mail, one 

 "Conqueror Smoker" to Major H. A. High, 

 Waxahachie, Tex. He bought a Cyprian 

 Queen from me, and the Bees have worsted 

 the old geiitleniau. I told him that the Con- 

 queror Sniokei- would conquer the "Cyps," 

 as I had tried one for two j-ears, and "it 

 never failed. " Hespectfully,

EXCELSIOR 



HONEY EXTRACTORS 



In answer to frequent inquiries 

 for Extractors carrying 3 and 4 

 Langstroth frames, I have con- 

 cluded to adopt these two new 

 sizes. The 3 frame basket is in a 

 can of the same size and style as 

 the 2 frame. The 4 frame basket 

 is in the larger can, with the cone 

 or metal standard for the basket 

 to revolve upon, leaving room un- 

 derneath the basket f ur 7r> or HO 

 ibs. of honey. It will be complete, 

 with covers, and in every way 

 Identical, except in size, with the 

 SlH.oo Extractor, 13x20, which is 

 intended for any size of frame. 



Excepting with the fH.'X) Ex- 

 tractors, all the different styles 

 have strainers over the canal lead- 

 ing to the honey gate, and mova- 

 ble sides in the Comb Baskets. The $8.00 and 

 f 10.00 Extractors have no covers.
