Chicago. — Our market is entirelv bare of comb 

 honey of the best grade, and very little of the poorer 

 grade is to be found. No. 1 to fancy white comb 

 will bring 17 to 18 upon arrival; and until the 

 traders each get a small supply consignments will 

 sell promptly. There is no change in the price of 

 extracted from recent quotations. Beeswax also is 

 steady.

St. Louis. — Southern honey in barrels is com-

 nnst unsalable. Extracted honey, Southern, in bar- 

 rels and half-barrels. 6 to 6^/2 for choice light am-

POWER HONEY - EXTRACTORS 



Our new catalog is full of information about these labor-saving 

 machines. With the difficulty of getting competent help, the 

 power extractors are being sold largely in this and foreign 

 countries, and the present demand is far greater than ever be- 

 fore. Read what a California producer says in a letter to a 

 disinterested party, which we are permitted to see and publish : 



Gentlemen: — I should like to say a few words in favor of the ball-bearing Root 

 Automatic extractor, as I believe it is as near perfection as can be. This machine runs 

 so easy that a few turns to get it up to speed is all that is necessary; and the men, 

 while using the No. IT, which I formerly had, could average onlj' 1000 lbs. per day, 

 while with this machine they can average 2000 lbs. with but one additional man. No 

 apiary can atford to be without one of these machines. 



I feel like congratulating The A. I. Root Co. for making an invention that is such 

 a satisfaction, and financially to the honey-producers' interests.
