ORIGINAL PATENTS. 



The Ori;$liiitl 



Prof. Cook.inhis valuable Manual of the Apiarr, 

 states that " Mr. Bingham was the first to improve 

 the old Quinby emober by estabMahing a direct 

 draft." Five years of persistentefforthas demon- 

 strated that no one but Bingham lias been able to 

 improve u Bingham smoker. Hundreds of Bing- 

 ham smokers have been in use five yearS, and are 

 yet in W4trking order. They burn lots of 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 di'wn err sideways, much or little, 

 swill or slow, ju>t as yoH please, any or all the 

 time; lop up or down, they alwaysgo! 



Bee-keepers wiM save money and vexation by 

 buying genuine Bingham smokers and Bingham & 

 Hetherington Uncapping-KnivesHrst. We neither 

 make nor handle any other supplies; but "f these 

 we are the original inventors, and only legal 

 makers, and have had over 4.^,*mm) in use trom one 

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

 plaint. ^ , 



Witn European and American orders already 

 received for over 3,0(H_t. there is evidence that 1hh4 

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

 suchg'-ods as we make have met the advanced 

 wants of the m'st advanced bee-keepers in Eu- 

 rope and America. ^ J m
