 honey-producer. The man who keeps abi-east of the times is 

 man who makes his bees pay.

HONEY AND BEESWAX 



Chicago. June it.— There is very little 

 movement in honey, either extracted or 

 comb. The stocks of both are ample for all 

 demands, prices remain about as recently 

 quoted, there being no large sales toqiiote 

 from. R. A Burnett & Co. 



Kansas City. Mo.. .lune 17— The honey 

 market remains about the same. There is 

 very little old honey left on this market. We 

 believe that the new honey— when it comes 

 in— will sell at around Ji so to $1.75 per case. 

 Kxtracted honeyis cleaning up very rapidly, 

 and while prices are no higher, there is a 

 considerably firmer feeling to the market. 

 Prices range from 6c a pound for dark am* 

 ber to 7c a pound for lighter honey. There 

 is no white extracted on ihis market. 



C. C Clemons Produce Company. 



Denver. Colo , June 17— We have nothing 

 to offer in comb honey at the present time. 

 We are selling extracted honev in a jobbing 

 way as follows; White, 8j4f^8Mc per pound; 

 lii;ht amber, 8(?8'ic per pound, and amber. 

 7@8c per pound. We pay 26c per pound in 

 in cash and 28c per pound in trade for clean, 

 average yellow beeswax delivered here. 

 The Colo Honey Producers' Assn 



F. Rauchfuss. .\/er. 



.San Antonio. June 15— The demand is 

 good for bulk comb honey, but little trade 

 for extracted. The south Texas crop is 

 larger than normal, and of very good quality. 

 Prices have had a tendency to shrink under 

 the heavy offering-*. Wholesale prices on 

 bulk comb honey is steady at oc basis, ex- 

 tracted according to quality at 6@7/^c. 



Beeswax is in good demand at 25c ca*h and 

 28c exchange. Southwestern Bee Co. 



Los Angeles. June i8 — The market at 

 present on honey and wax is as follows: 

 Water-white sage, t'^c; white sage, r.J^c: 

 light amber «age, s.'-'C; light amber alfalfa. 

 S'lC. All in straight carload lots f. o. b. ship- 

 ping point Choice country beeswax 27c per 

 pound. Hamilton & Mendeson. 



New York, June 18— Old crop of comb 

 honey is now pretty well cleaned up with 

 the exception of some off quality, odds and 

 ends for which there is practically no de- 

 mand. New crop from the South is now be- 

 ginning to arrive, and No. i white stock sell- 

 ing around 14c; in some instances 15c; while 

 off grades sell accordingly lower as to qual- 

 ity. We have nothing new to report as to 

 the market on extracted. There is a fair 

 demand at unchanged prices with liberal 

 supplies. Beeswax steady at 3c@3ic.
