about uncapping: any sealed lii>ncy,needs, I 

 think a little mare explanation. If the 

 combs are so arranged or placed that 

 the spaces between them vary only 

 slightly from a "bee-space." there is no 

 need of uncapping the sealed cells, but 

 if the spaces are much wider than a 

 "bee-space," the bees, especially if 

 crowded for room, and fed abundantly, 

 w'il! build comb right on top of the 

 capped surface, giving the honey a de- 

 cidedly patched and blotched appearance.

Chicago, Sept. 24.— The market is now show- 

 ing more activity. Some small lots of fancy 

 white clover have been sold at 14c per pound, 

 with No. 1 ranging at 12@13c; very Utile call 

 for other grades. Extracted, white, brings 

 ti(^7c; araber, 5^i6c, according to quality, flavor 

 and style of package. Beeswax, 28(rt30c. 



R. A. Burnett & Co. 



Kansas City, Sept. 22.— Market on comb 

 honey is quite active at $2.75 per case for fancy 

 white stock. Extracted rather slow at 6^^@7c. 

 We look for the demand on extracted to pick up 

 considerably with cooler weather, Beeswax in 

 good demand at 30c per pound. 



C. C. Clemons & Co 



Boston, Sept. 22.— Comb honey continues to 

 come in slowly, while the demand is increas- 

 ing. Fancy white will brin^r from 16@17c; No. 

 1, 15@lt,c, and No. 2, 14c. The old honey has 

 been practically cleaned up, there being one lot 

 of any quantity left. We look to see our pres- 

 ent market maintained right through the sea- 

 son. Blake, Scott & I^ee. 



New York, Sept. S,— Arrivals of new crop 

 comb honey are very light as yet, none to speak 

 cf, nor does there seem to be much demand as 

 yet and prices are unsettled. We think, how- 

 ever, that when arrivals begin to be more plen- 

 tiful, within the next 10 days or 2 weeks, there 

 will be a demand for fancy white at 15c; No. 1, 

 at 14c, and No. 2 at \2«.i 13c. 



Extracted honey is selling fairlv well at 

 bi^oj^c for white, and 5>ic for light amber and 

 amber, and dark ai 5c. Southern average qual- 

 ity in barrels, at 52fn ^.^c per gallsn. 



Beeswax dull and declining; choice grades 

 selling at 2S(a2^c. Hildreth & Segelken. 



Cincinnati, Sept. 15.— There is an improve- 

 ment in the honey market, so far as extracted 

 honey is concerned. The demand has increased 

 considerably, but the supply is limited, owing 

 to the fact that bee-keepers in general are mis- 

 takably holding their crop for belter prices. 

 We quote amber extracted in barrels at 5'4(f^(iCi 

 white clover in barrels and cans at 7@S^c, ac- 

 cording to quality. The comb honey situation 

 is badly demoralized, being aught but encourag- 



ing. Quote fancy white clover comb honey at 

 14@l5c. Beeswax, 26@28c. 



The Fred W.MnTH Co. 



Albany, N.Y., Sept. 19. — Honey receipts are 

 increasing, and although demand is g^ood pri- 

 ces are easing up some, 15c being as high as we 

 can sell any round lots. We quote: Fancy, 

 15@16c; A No. 1, 15c; No. 1, 14c; mixed. 12@13c; 

 buckwheat, 13@13!^c. We advise shipping in 

 handle carriers by freight only; comes safely 

 that way. Extracted, white, 7c: mixed, 6>6@"c; 

 buckwheat, o>^c. Beeswax. 28fai30c. 



H. R. Wright. 



Cincinnati, O., Sept. 21 .—Comb honey is now 

 coming in more freely, and prices if anything 

 have a little moderated. The sales made and 

 prices obtained were for No. 1 fancy water- 

 white comb. U%@lSHc; No. 2, 12H(S'l4c. Ex- 

 tracted is sold as follows: White clover, (.J^fti^Sc; 

 amber in barrels, 5K@5?^c; in cans, 6@6Jic. 

 Beeswax, 27c. C. H. W. Weber. 



Philadelphia, Sept. 7.— Very little comb 

 honey has arrived in the market as yet, but ex- 

 tracted honey has come in quite freely for the 

 last two months, both from the South and 

 West. There seems to be quite a crop of ex- 

 tracted honey throughout the country. Comb 

 honey has not all been graded up yet, and we 

 can hardly tell at this early date definitely 

 about the price. We quote: Fancy comb, 

 15@16 cents; No. 1. 14(aa5c; amber. lO'u 12c; ex- 

 tracted, white, 7>6u( Sc; amber, 6>6@7c; dark, Uc. 

 Beeswax, 27c. 



We are producers of honey and do not handle 

 on commission. Wm. A. Selser. 



San Francisco, Sept. 7.— White comb, 1-lb. 

 sections, 12^@13c; amber, 9,g)llc. Extracted, 

 white, t@t% cents; light amber, 5@t>c; amber, 

 4@4Vftc; dark amber, 3%(Si3Mc. Beeswax, good 

 to choice, light, 2''(ai30c; dark, 27@ZSc. 



For choice to select water-white the market 

 is unfavorable to the buying interest, stocks of 

 this description being exceedingly light. Com- 

 mon grades are rather plentiful, and are not 

 meeting with any very active demand, although 

 as a rule they are being steadily held.
