have lain there till they are dr> unJ brittle — 

 over a week— and there is still honey (0 

 stieliing on them. I have not found it on 

 any other Kind of leaves. It seems light in 

 color — about like white clover honey— and 

 perfectly clear. It has been so long since we 

 had any rain that I don't know when it was. 

 Bees have done uo good here this season.

[The leaves arrived while we were in Buffalo, 

 but on our return the sticky sweetness could 

 still be plainly seen on them. It must have 

 been quite thick on the trees.— Editor.]

 firm at JSto3Uc. R. A. Bhrnbtt & Co.

 rather dull on account of the warm weather. 

 Extracted sells only to manufacturers from 

 5to>6c; better grades alfalfa water-white from 

 bfaTc; white clover from .s&Oc. Fancy white 

 comt honey sells from 13>4fe'154c. 



C. H. W. Wkbbr. 



Boston, Sept. 27.— We quote our market as 

 follows: Fancy white in cartons, 16c; A No. 1, 

 15c; No. 1, 14*^c. Extracted, white, 8}^c; light 

 amber, 8c; amber, 6J6@7^c.

 wax, 28@2')c. H. R. Wright. 



Omaha, Aug. 8. — New comb honey is arriving 

 by express in small quantities from Iowa and 

 Colorado, and selling at $3 50 per case iu a re- 

 tail way. California extracted honey is being 

 offered carlots at 4!4(a*4^ic 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 honev seems to be quite 

 large this year in Colorado, tJtah and Califor- 

 nia. Peycke Bros. 



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

 ginning to arrive in large quantities, and, as a 

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

 we quote as f.olli.ws: Fancy white, 14tol5c: No. 

 1, 13c; No. 2, 12c; and amber. He 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&bhic, 

 according to quality, and Southern in barrels 

 at from 55(S65c per gallon. Beeswa.x dull at 27c. 

 Hildreth & Sboblken. 



Des Moines, Aug. 7.— There is verv little 

 doing here in new crop of honey. Some small 

 lots of near-by produced comb honey are on the 

 market and selling in a retail way at $3.50 to 

 $3.75 per case. We do not look for much trade 

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

 consume a great deal of extracted honev. 



Peycke Bros. & Ch'aney. 



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

 14@15c; No. 1, 13(a'14c; no dark to quote. Ex- 

 tracted, white, 6Cai7c. Beeswax, 25(<i^26c. 



M. H. Hont & Son. 



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

 fancy honey, 16@17c, and lower grades, 12@14c; 

 old neglected. Advise moderate shipments only 

 of new as yet. Batterson & Co. 



San Francisco, Sept. 4.— White comb, 109 

 12 cents; amber, 7(a'<c; dark, 6(S'7'* cents. Ex- 

 tracted, white. s%(g)—; light amber, 4K@— ; 

 amber. 4fffl— . Beeswax 26(S)28c. 



Arrivals and spot ofYerings are of rather mod- 

 erate volume, but there is as much or more on 

 market than can be . onveniently or advanta- 

 geously placed. To secure liberal wholesale 

 custom, prices would have to be shaded in favor 

 of buyers. In a small way for especially desi- 

 rable lots slightly higher figures than are 

 quoted are realized. 



Kansas City, Sept. 14.— Up to the present 

 time only small lots of new comb honey have 

 been on the market, and these met with ready 

 sale on the basis of 15(5 16c per pound for fancy 

 white. For next week heavier receipts are ex- 

 pected and quotations are issued at t3.10(af3,25 

 per case for large lots, which would be equal to 

 about 14tol4i4c; the demand being quite brisk, 

 a lii m rti.^rlcet is anticipated. Inijuiries for ex- 

 traced are a little more numerous, but large 

 buyers still seem to have their ideas too low. In 

 a small way 5}i®6c is quotable.
