BINGHAM 



^1^ h& Smoker 



Prof. Cook, in his valuable Manual of the Apiary, 

 states that " Mr. Binpham was the flrst to improve 

 the old Quinby smoker by establishing a direct 

 draft." Five years of persistent efTort has demon- 

 strated that no one but Binj-'ham has been able to 

 improve a Bingham smoker. Hundreds of Bing- 

 ham smokers have been in use five years, and are 

 yet in working 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 down or sideways, much or little, 

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

 time; top up or down, they always go! 



Bee-keepers will save money and vexation by 

 buying genuine Bingliam smokers and Bingham & 

 Hetherington Uncapping-Knives first. We neither 

 make nnr handle any other supplies; but <<f these 

 we are the original inventors, and only legal 

 makers, and hnve had over 4.^,0<X) in use from one 

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

 plaint. 



With European and American orders already 

 received for over 3,<:k;>0. there is evidence that 1884 

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

 such goods aswemake have met the advanced 

 wants of the most advanced bee-keepers in Eu- 

 rope and America.
