BINGHAM 



Bee Smoker 



Prof. Cook, in hie Taluable Manual of the Apiarv, 

 states that "Mr. Binphnm was the first to improve 

 the old Quinby Bmokor by establishing a direct 

 draft." Five years of pert*istenteffi)rthas demun- 

 strated that no one but Bingham has been able to 

 Improve a BinKham wmoker. Hundreds ot Bing- 

 ham smokers have been in use Ave years, and are 

 yet in workins order. They burn Intu of blocks 

 and chips and stuff, and make lots of smoke and 

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

 tachments, as thev never go out or fail to blow 

 smoke up or down or sideways, much or little, 

 BWiftor slow, just as yoa please, any or all the 

 time ; top up or down, they always KO ! 



Bee-keei)er9 wiU save money and vexation by 

 buying trenuiue Bingham smokers and Bingham & 

 Hctherington Uncapping-Knivesflrat. We neither 

 make nor handle any other supplies; but "f these 

 we are the original inventors, and only legal 

 makers, and have had over 45,(Khi in use from one 

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

 plaint. 



With European and American orders already 

 eceived for over m,ixh>. there is evidence that ixx4 

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

 such goods as we make have met the advanced 

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

 rope and America.
