SMOKE 



AND 



SMOKEHS. 



I am overwhelmed with letters asking "which size 

 of smoker is the best?" 



Mr. J. E. Hetherington ordered eight of the large 

 for hi.^ apiarieit, and for coarse fuel, they are the best. 



The Standard is what its name implies, and consti- 

 tutes the huJh of sales so far. 



The small is a pretty implement answering nicely 

 for a few colonies of bees, and to kill lice on house 

 plants; it is larger, however, than the improved 

 Quinby. 



The first "Direct Draft" smoker ever sold has been 

 used one year, and sold for (me dollar, as the gentle- 

 man wanted a lai-ge size. 



It was a Standard and he paid $3.00 and says "he 

 would not be without one a single day in the season 

 for the price." 



They go all the time and burn sound or rotten wood, 

 tobacco, or sidphur.
