THE ORIGINAL PATENT 



DIRECT-DIillFT SMOKER. 



OTER TTI^ENTY THOUSAND NOW IN USE. 



The Michigan Bee-Eeepera' Association, hayingall 

 the Smokers before it, "pronounced Binjfham's Pa- 

 tent Smoker the beat." 



J. P. Moore, Binghamton. New York, after usine 

 one some time, said : " My Smoker troubles are all 

 over, and bee-keepers owe you a debt of gratitude." 



Professor Cook, of Michigan Agricultural College, 

 says : " It is the best in the market." 



R, M. Argo, Lowell, Kentucky, says : "It is all that 

 any bee-keeper could desire." 



Paul 1*. Viallon, Bayou Q-oula, La,, writes, April 6, 

 1878; "Your Smokers are far superior to any ever 

 invented, and we bee-keepers owe you a vote of 

 thanks for your ingenious Invention. Many may try 

 to improve on yours, but I am positive none will 

 make a better one." 



Thia is the first and only bellows Smoker ever made 

 which would burn stove-wood. It burns anything 

 combustible, and ne'eds no care except to be refilled 

 once in one ortwo hours. "Works easy and will throw 

 a stream of smoke ten feet. It will not go out nor 

 wear out. It will save time, stings, and money, and 

 perhaps a valuable horse. 



BliNGHAM & HETHERINCxTON 



HONEY KNIFE. 



Patented May 20, 1879. 



The most extensive Bee-Eeepers use them exclusively. 



The Knife is so constructed that only the thin beveled edge rests on the combs, 

 and the caps, after being cut off, slide up in large sheets and roll over on the knife, 

 like shavings from a sharp plane.' As only the edge of the knife touches the 

 honey, it does not wade and stick like other knives, but Klides easily over curves, 

 planes and hollows, leaxing the uncapped honey free from caps, and the cells as 

 clean, perfect and smooth us if they had never been capped. They are two inches 

 wide, tempered and finished like a razor, and will last for a life-time. 



We are practioal bee-keepers, and first Invented the Blneham dts Ketlierlnv- 

 ton Honey Knire and the Bingham Smoker for our own use In our own 

 apiaries, because such knives and smokers as bee-keepers need could not be had 

 at any price. We are the patentees and exelusive manufacturers of our knives 

 and smokers, and they are the only supplies we handle. While no other imple- 

 ments ever offered to bee-keepers nave had such sale and universal commenda- 

 tion, we are glad to say no word of complaint has ever been made to us, or Knife 

 or Smoker returned.
