Celluloid Queen-Buttons 



Those are very pretty things for bee-keep- 

 srs or honey-sellers to wear on their co;n- 

 iapols. They often serve to introduce the 

 suliji'ct of lioney, which might frequently 

 k-a-.i to a sale. 



NoTK. — One bee-keeper writes: "I have 

 every reason to believe that it would be a 

 very good idea for every bee- 

 keeper to wear one [of these 

 buttons], as it will cause peo- 

 ple to ask questions about 

 the busy bee. and many a 

 conversation thus started 

 wind up with the sale of 

 more or less honey; at any 

 rate it would give the bee- 

 keeper a superior oppoi tu- 

 nity toenlighten many a person in regard to 

 honey and bees." 



The picture shown above is a reproduc- 

 tion of a motto queen-button that we offer 

 to bee-keepers. It has a pin on the under- 

 siile 10 fasten it.

HONEY AND BEESWAX 



CHiCAciO. May 15.— Very little honey of any 

 kind is selling at the present time. The 

 market, however, is bare of comb honey, 

 and while we cannot quote prices from 

 sales. No. I to fancy would bring I7@i8c per 

 pound. No producer should have any comb 

 to carry to next month with the market in 

 its present condition, for it would sell very 

 soon after arrival. 



Extracted is plentiful and slow of sale 

 with the exception of white clover and bass- 

 wood, which, like the comb honey, seems to 

 be exhausted and commands oc per pound, 

 but other white grades can be bought at 

 7@8c per pound, while the ambers can 

 be bought from 5®"c per pound, according 

 to kind and quality, Beeswax is steady at 

 from 3o@32c per pound. 



R. A. Burnett Sc Co. 



Kansas City, Mo., May 15.— There is no 

 change in our honey market since our last
