CITY MARKETS. 



uChicago.— Hooei/.— The honey market is In a dor- 

 mant condition at the present time, tliere being 

 very little new comb offered, and the old is not in 

 salable condition, all the best lots having gone into 

 consumption. The weather at present is hot, and, 

 we should judge, very favorable to a flow of nectar. 

 Extracted honey is also in light demand, as parties 

 are waiting to see what tlie crop will be. We quote 

 from 6@lXc. Beeswax. 33@25.

i BurFAt.o.—fl'fmei/.— There are no new features to 

 note in our honey market. We notice no arrivals of 

 new, nor is there any demand to speak of; only a 

 few remnants of old. Quite good brings mostly 16c; 

 common, etc., 5@10c. Tliere is no trade for extract- 

 ed except at a very low price indeed. Let us hear in 

 regard to the ensuing crop, as we handle large 

 quantities and know what to do with it.

The adjoiuins" cut 

 shows a very convenient 

 package for mailing 

 samples of honey and 

 other liquids. The cut 

 is only about half size of 

 the one we are prepared 

 to furnish, which holds 

 i4 ounce, and gives a 

 good taste of the honey 

 and some to spare. We 

 also use a very wide- 

 mouthed bottle so the 

 honey will run out eas- 

 ily. You notice the top 

 screws on, closing it 

 tight and making a very 

 handy package, easily 

 opened, and accepted by 

 the postal authorities. 

 We have just bougiit 35 

 gross so as to be al)le to 

 sell them at only 5c each, 

 56c per doz. By m:iil, ;5c 

 extra on one, or 3c each 

 extra in quantities.
