Celluloid Queen-Buttons 



These are very pretty things for bee-keep- 

 ers or honey-sellers to wear on their cnai- 

 lapels. They often serve to introduce the 

 subject of honey, which might frequently 

 lead to a sale. 



Note. — One bee-keeper writes: "f 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 opportu- 

 nity toenlijfhten 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, ft has a pin on the under- 

 side to fasten it.

HONEY AND BEESWAX 



Chica<;()- lune 15.— There are very few 

 sales of comti honey to report on. but white 

 comb has sold freely at I7<3'i8c per pound. 

 There is no surplus on sale, as receipts are 

 chiefly small lots from parties who have 

 kept more for their home market than was 

 needed. 



Extracted is without change; very little 

 being sold. Prices on the amber grades 

 range from 5@7C per pound: white, 7(a'oc per 

 pound, according to the kind and quality. 

 Beeswax is steady at from io(<S-i2. 



R. A. Burnett & Co. 



Denver. June 17.— We have nothing to 

 offer in comb honey, but have a good stock 

 of first-class extracted honey, which we are 

 offeringat the following local jobbing prices: 

 White. 8!^@8Jic per pound; light amber 8@- 

 i%c. and amber strained, 7@8c We buy 

 beeswax and pay 28c per pound in cash and 

 30c per pound in trade for clean yellow bees- 

 wax delivered here. 



The Colo. Honey-Producers' Ass'n. 

 Frank Rauchfuss. Mer. 



Kansas Chy. Mo.. June 17.— There are a 

 few cases of new comb honey on the mar- 

 ket. The demand is good. The supply of 

 extracted is largeand the demand fair. We 

 quote as follows; No. i white comb honey. 

 24 section cases, $3.60 to $3.75; No. 2 amber. 

 $3 00 to J3 25 No. I white extracted honey. 

 per pound. 754@8c; No. 2 amber. 5/47C. Bees- 

 wax. No I. 28c; No. 2. 25c. 



C. C. Clemons Produce Company. 



Indianapolis. June 16.— Practically little 

 doing in the honey line. The demand for 

 extracted honey is little better than usual 

 for this time of year. Comb is dull. There 

 is no change in price since our last report. 

 We are paying 28c cash or 30c in trade for 

 good average wax delivered here. 



Walter S. Pouder. 



Cincinnati. June 17.— Business is not good 

 in the honey line, although the demand is 

 looking up somewhat. We quote No. i comb 

 honey at $i. 75 to $4.00 per case, and extracted 

 amber at 5'I@7C. and white from 8@ioc a 

 pound. We are paying 28c a pound cash for 

 beeswax or 30c a pound in trade. 



The Fred W. Muth Co. 



Los Angeles. June 18 —The market on 

 California honey at present is about as fol- 

 lows; Combw'hite. $3.00 per case; light am- 

 ber. $2.75. Stocks ample for present re 

 Quirements. Extracted, light amber alfalfa, 

 3j-ic per pound; light amber sage, jlic per 

 pound; water-white sage. 7c; white orange. 

 7c (new crop). Beeswax, 28c. All f. o. b. 

 Coast. Hamilton & Menderson. 



New York. June iB.— There is practically 

 nothing doing as far as comb honey is con- 

 cerned; there being a little demand only for 

 No. I and fancy white at prices ranging at 

 around 15c, while off grades are not wanted 

 at all. As to extracted, there seems to be a 

 little better feeling as far as West Indian 

 and new crop Southern are concerned. 

 West Indian is now selling at around 48&50 

 a gallon, according to quality and new crop 

 Southern, which is now beginning to arrive 

 freely, is selling at around 586'7Sc per gallon 

 according to quality. Some of the Southern 

 honey is very poor in quality, and of course 

 will have to sell at a lower figure: still, the 

 better grades will bring the full market 

 value. There is no white clover, last year s 

 crop, and what little there is around is sell- 

 ing at around 8c per pound. Beeswax is 

 steady at 30CIS3IC per pound..
