NEW YOr^K CITY.— Comb Honey: Last 

 year's crop of white is well cleaned up but 

 considerable buckwheat, amber and mixed is 

 still unsold and the demand for these grades 

 is next to nothing. We received soine small 

 shipments of new crop white from the South, 

 which finds ready sale at from 13c to 15c lb., 

 according to quality. 



Extracted Honey: Demand good. Arrivals 

 are quite heavy from the South and same is 

 selling at from 65c to 90c per gallon, accord- 

 ing to quality. No new crop California or 

 nearby on the market as yet. Beeswax quiet 

 at 30c lb.

CHIC.\GO. — The new honay is beginning to 

 arrive on sale. A little fancy comb has sold 

 at 18c per pound, and judging from the re- 

 jiorts that reach this market it will probably 

 command a range of 17c to ISc, beginning 

 with August month. Extracted white ranges 

 from 8c to 9c, according to kind and quality; 

 nil white clover (if ripe) brings 9c; amber 

 grades of good flavor bring 8c; less desirable, 

 7 c to 7V2C. Beeswax is ruling steady at 31c 

 to 32c for prime grades and sells upon arrival.

C. C. CLEMONS PRO. CO. 



TOLEDO. — There is no new honey being 

 oiTered as yet, and very little demand for 

 same. New white clover comb honey would 

 bring 16c to 17c per pound in a retail way. 

 There is some demand for extracted honey, 

 but owing to prices asked it will move slovv. 

 However, as soon as the berries are gone and 

 the larger producers get their crop ready for 

 market, there will be a better demand and 

 prices will decline somew'hat. Beeswax is 

 quiet and brings from 28c to 32c, depending 

 on llie grade.
