Honey reports continued from page 2. 



New York. — We are looking forward to a good 

 season for both comb and extracted honey, as the 

 market is pretty well cleaned up of last year's stock. 

 There is quite a lot of Southern honey this year, as 

 Porto Rico, Cuban, Mexican, and a little Florida. 

 White comb honey will bring from 13 to 16 cents 

 per pound. Fancy and white extracted from 7% 

 to 9 cents. Chas. Israel & Bros. 



New York, July 8. 



Cincinnati. — The market is in good shape to 

 receive the new crop of honey, which will be a 

 big one in this part of the country. Our advice is, 

 that the early bird will get the price, and those who 

 wait will be sorry for it. We can use quick ship- 

 ments of comb honey, and are selling what we have 

 at from 15 to 16 '^ cts. by the case, some cheaper 

 at wholesale. Extracted honey for table use we are 

 selling at 7 V^ to 10, and amber honey in barrels at 

 6 to 7Vi, according to the quality and quantity pur- 

 chased. For choice bright yellow beeswax we are 

 paying 30 cts. delivered here. 



Cincinnati, July 3. The Fred W. Muth Co 



St. Louis. — The receipts of Southern honey in 

 barrels and five-gallon i ans continue to arrive, and 

 prices are established at 6*4 cents in barrels and 7 

 in cans, for pure light-amber honey. There is no 

 California or other Western honey to speak of in 

 this market, and quotations are nominal at 8 to 8% 

 for white, and 8 for light amber, all in five-gallon 

 cans. Comb honey is not in demand at all, and the 

 receipts are also small. The quotations are nominal 

 for fancy white comb honey at 16 to 17; No. 2 

 white, 15 ; light amber, 13 to 14* bv the case, fancv 

 white comb honey, $3.65 to $3.75; No. 2 white, 

 $3.25 to $3.40; amber, $2.75 to $3.10, according to 

 ((V.ality. Dark or broken honey is almost unsalable. 

 IJeeswax is in good demand at 32 for prime. Im- 

 pure and inferior sells for less.

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-bearino^ 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. 17, which I formerly had, could average only 1000 lbs. per day, 

 while with this machine they can average 3000 lbs. with but one additional man. N^o 

 apiary can afford 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.
