pushing in two little blocks of wooil. Flies 

 ^et into a house when the doors are opened. 

 Sooner or later a fly goes to the window, runs 

 up to the top, scurries along first to one cor- 

 ner or the other, and. it he finds an opening, 

 out he pops, never to find his way in again hy 

 the same route. What would we think of a 

 honey-house with crowds of bees hanging 

 around the door that was opened dozens of 

 times a day, and no opportunity for the bees 

 to escape over the toiis of the windows ; We 

 know that it would lie full of hoes all of the 

 time. A dwelling with screens on the doors 

 and windows is an exact parallel. Put es- 

 capes at the tops of windows antl there is no 

 necessity for sticky fly-paper.

I HONEY AND BEESWAX t 



MARKET QUOTATIONS. 



Chicago, Aug^. 22.— White comb brings ISc 

 per pound for thechnice grades, with other line? 

 not g-rading No. 1 selling at 13tol4c; light am- 

 ber, 12(s 13c; dark, 10@llc. Extracted, fair de- 

 mand at S>i(ai6c for white, and S^OSJ^c for am- 

 ber; dark grades, 5c. Beeswax steady at 30c 

 for choice yellow. R. A. Bdrnbtt & Co. 



Cincinnati, Aug. 10.— The honey market if 

 rather dull on account of the warm weather. 

 E.xtracted sells only to manufacturers fron; 

 Smi.c; better grades alfalfa water-white from 

 o(s*7c; white clover from H^Oc. Fancy white 

 comb honev sells from ]3>i(ai5>^c. 



C. H. W. Weber. 



Boston, Aug. 19.— Our market today is abont 

 I(.(Sil7c for fancy; A No. 1, 1.=;(4r4>li.c; No. 1, 14^ 

 l.'^c. Extracted, full supply, light demand. 



Several tots of new Vermont honey in cartons 

 have thus far been received, meeting a ready . 

 sale at 17c, although of course in a small way. 

 The trade generally seems disposed to hold off, 

 looking for larger receipts and lower prices. 

 This is somewhat due, of course, to the fact 

 that the demand is still light owing to the wariM 

 weather. Cooler weather will make a better de- 

 mand and naturally make a better feeling. 



Blake, Scott & Lbe. 



Albany, N. Y., Aug. 20.— We quote; Fancy 

 white comb, ]6(ail7c; No. 1, l.=^(a'lt,c; No. 2, 13@ 

 Uc; mixed, 12(<; 13c, Extracted, light, "fa 7}ic: 

 mixed, 6M(S'7c. H. R. Wrioht. 



OM.AHA, Aug. 8. — New comb honey is arriving . 

 by express in small quantities from Iowa ano 

 Colorado, and selling at $3 SO per case in a re- 

 tail way. California extracted honey is being 

 offered carlots at 4'A@4^:,c per pound, f.o.b. Cal- 

 ifornia shipping-points, but we have not heard 

 of any sales having been made thus far. The 

 production of extracted honey seems to be quite 

 large this year in Colorado, Utah and Califor- 

 nia. Peycke Bros. 



New York, Sept. 10.— Comb honey is now be- 

 ginning to arri*e in large quantities, and, as a 

 rule, quality is fine. The demand is good, and 

 we quote as follows: Fancy while, l+fiil5c; No. 

 1, 13c; No. 2, 12c; and amber, Uc. No buck- 

 wheat is on the market as yet, but are expect- 

 ing same within a week or so. Extracted is 

 selling slowly, with plenty of supply, at S@(,%c 

 according to quality, and Southern in barrels 

 at from 55@6Sc per gallon. Beeswax dull at 27c. 



HiLDRBTH & SBGELKEN. 



Df.s Moines, Aug. 7.— There is very little 

 doing here in new crop of honey. Some small 

 lots of near-by produced comb honev are on the 

 market and selling in a retail way" at $3.50 to 

 13.75 per case. We do not look for much trade 

 in this line before Sept. 1. Our market does not 

 consume a great deal of extractod honey. 



Pevcke Bros. & Chaney. 



Detroit, Aug. 12.— Fancy white comb honey. 

 14(ai5c; No. 1, 13@14c; no dark to quote. Ex- 

 tracted, white, 6ia 7c. Beeswax, 25(<i'26c. 



M. H. Hunt & Son. 



Buffalo, Aug. 10.— Quite a good demand for 

 fancy honey, lc^l7c, and lower grades, 12(gil4c; 

 old neglected. Advise moderate shipments only 

 of new as yet. Batterson & Co. 



San Francisco, Aug. 14.— White comb. 11® 

 12>^ cents; amber, .s(a»10c; dark, 6(aj7J^c. Ex- 

 tracted, white, S'A®—; light amber, 4^@.«c; 

 amber. 4@4J^c. Beeswax. 26@28c. 



Market continues quiet, with apiarists, as a 

 rule, unwilling to unload at prices generally 

 named by wholesale operators. Quotations rep- 

 resent as nearly as possible the values ruling 

 at this date for round lots, although free sales 

 could not probably be effec'ed at full figures, 

 while, on the other hand, higher prices than 

 quoted are being realized in the filling of some 

 small orders. 



Kansas City, .\ug. (..—Some very fine Mis- 

 souri honey is now on the market, selling at 

 10(Q'l'ic per pound for fancy white comb. Colo- 

 rado and Utah shippers are offering new comb 

 honey in carlots for first half of August ship- 

 ment at 10c per pound for No. 1, and 9fa.9^c for 

 No. 2, f.o.b. shipping-point. The market for ex- 

 tracted hocey is as yet rather unsettled, asking 

 prices ranging from 45i®4>ic, f.o.b. shipping- 

 it. Bujers, however, seem to be in no hurry
