BROKERS in Comb and Extracted Honey. oWe never 

 buy honey ourselves, but sell only for shipper's 

 account. We therefore obtain the highest prices our 

 market will pay. Consignments of choice comb and 

 the better grades of extracted solicited. Liberal.ad- 

 vances, honest service, and prompt returns. 



Schenectady —There has been no material change 

 in our market conditions since our last reports. • The 

 best white-clover comb honey is selling at 15 cts., and 

 grades under that, 13 to 14; buckwheat, 11 to 12. The 

 demand for white extracted is not quite so good, as 

 most dealers have secured their supply for present 

 use. Dark is unchanged. We quote white at VA to 8; 

 amber and dark, 6/4 to 7. Producers should write us 

 before shipping us their honey, as certain grades and 

 sizes of sections sell better than others in our market.

 ed quite an improvement in the honey situation as re-

 ber, 13 to 14; medium amber and off grades, 10 to 12;
