 comb honey is good. New crop of white 

 comb is now arriving, and finds ready sale 

 atfromi6@i7c per pound for fancv white; 

 U@i5c for No. I. and 13c for .No. 2. We would 

 advise shipping now, and not wait for iiigher 



prices later on. No arrivals yet of new crop 

 of buckwheat, and not much demand. This 

 will probably sell at around io(5iic for fancy, 

 and from o@ioc for No. i. Extracted honey 

 is in good demand, and former prices are 

 maintained. Beeswax is quiet at 30c.

C. C. Clemons Produce Co. 



Indianapolis. Sept. 22.— The demand for 

 white comb honey exceeds the supply. Job- 

 bers pay i8c per lb. for fancy white, and in 

 single-case lots sales are being made for 

 2o@22c per lb. Extracted is more plentiful,

 Walter S. Pouder. 



Toledo. Sept. 20. — The market on ail 

 grades of comb and extracted is quite brisk, 

 and sales are being made at fair prices, the 

 prevailing prices on fancy white comb be- 

 ing from M-!<sn'Ac per lb.; amber grades, 

 from nej5!ic. Extracted, white clover, 

 brings 10c by the case; amber grades from 

 f>;2C@3c. depending upon quality and kind 

 offered Beeswax is quite firm, and sells at 

 from 30@33C. 



Owing to high prices asked by some pro- 

 ducers, buyers are taking on any quantity 

 of honey, waiting' to see what the Western 



shippers will do. and as they have been un 

 able to move their crop at the high price 

 asked, there is quite a tendency to declining 

 prices, and offerings are more freely, and 

 prices are somewhat easier. W^e believe 

 producers are making a mistake by holding 

 their honey for exorbitant prices, as owing 

 to the high prices of staple food articles we 

 do not look for a big sale of honey this sea- 

 son. S. J, Griggs & Co. 



Cincinnati. Sept. 21.— The demand for 

 comb honey is very good, and is selling by 

 the single case to the retailer at from i6@- 

 i7.'i!C per pound, according to quality. In a 

 jobbing way. for Western comb honey we 

 are getting $375 a case: $4.00 by the single 

 case. Extracted honey is rather plentiful, 

 the amber selling at from b^il^c a pound, ac- 

 cording to the quality purchased. For 

 strictly fancy water-white table honey we 

 are getting io@iic a pound. We are paying 

 2S@3oc a pound for choice, bright yellow 

 beeswax delivered here.
