Honey reports continued from page 2. 



Indianapolis. — Honey is now moving freely. 

 Fancy white comb is selling at 16 to 17; No. 1 

 white, one cent less; finest extracted, 9 to 10 cts. in 

 square five-gallon cans. Beeswax is in good demand, 

 and producers are being paid 32 cts., cash or trade. 



Indianapolis, Sept. 23. Walter S. Pouder. 



Schenectady. — The quality of early comb honey 

 coming forward is very inferior ; but on account of 

 scarcity it sells readily at 13 to 14 cts. Buckwheat 

 is somewhat better, but not up to the standard, and 

 commands the same price. No. 1 white would bring 

 16 to 18; white extracted, 8 V^ ; dark, IVz to 8. 



Schenectady, Sept. 24. Chas. MacCulloch. 



Albany. — Hone.v market here is firm under light 

 receipts and good demand. Prices are fully as high 

 as con-sumption will stand. We quote best white 

 comb, 16 to 18, according to style; No. 1 white, 16; 

 mixed, 1.5; buckwheat, 13 to 14. There is a good 

 demand for extracted, which seems to come slowly, 

 selling — white, 9% to 10; nearly white, 9; light 

 amber, 8 to 8 % ; dark or buckwheat, 7% to 8. We 

 think the sooner honey is marketed, the better prices 

 will be obtained. 



Albany, Sept. 22. H. R. Weight. 



New York. — The new crop of comb honey is now 

 beginning to arrive quite freely ; the demand is good 

 for all grades, and we quote fancy white at 16, and 

 some especially fine lots will bring 17; No. 1 white, 

 14 to 15; No. 2 at 13; mixed, dark, and buckwheat 

 at 11 to 12 cts. per lb. Extracted is in fair demand 

 with sufficient supply of all grades excepting Califor- 

 nia sage. We quote white clover at 8 to 9V^, ac- 

 cording to quality; light amber at 7 % to 8 ; dark, 

 mixed, and buckwheat at 7 to 8 ; Southern, in bar- 

 rels, as to quality, 70 to 80 cts. per gallon. Bees- 

 wax is steady at 32. 



New York, Sept. 23. Hildreth & Segelken. 



Cincinnati. — The demand for both comb and ex- 

 tracted honey is not as brisk as it should be for this 

 time of the year. We are receiving quantities of 

 both comb and extracted honey. Fancy white-clover 

 comb honey is selling at 16 cts. per lb. ; No. 1 white, 

 $3.50 per case of 24 sections. Off grades do not 

 sell. White-clover extracted honey in 60-lb. cans is 

 selling from 9 to 9^2- Amber grades are selling 

 from 7^/4 to 8V^, according to grade and quantity 

 purchased. Beeswax is selling from $33.00 to 

 $35.00 per 100. The above are otir selling prices, 

 not what we are paving. 



Cincinnati, Sept. 18. C. H. W. Weber & Co. 



St. Louis. — Our honey market has shown some 

 improvement lately, and we expect a better demand 

 for both extracted and comb honey from now on. 

 The prices on extradited honey remain about the 

 same, and the supply is quite sufficient to meet the 

 demands. We quote extracted honey in barrels and 

 half-barrels at 6 to 6^ cts.; in five-gallon cans, at 

 6% to 6%. Fancv white comb honev is selling at 

 15 to 16; No. 2, 14 to 15; light amber, 12 to 14; 

 by the case, $3.00 to $3.25 for fancy white: No. 2, 

 $2.50 to $3.00, according to quality and color. 

 Dark or broken comb honey is almost unsalable. 

 Beeswax has been in good demand lately, and is 

 now quoted at 32 cts. for prime. Inferior and im- 

 pure sells for less.

Chicago. — -The market during the past six weeks 

 has been practically one of large receipts and few 

 sales. It is difficult now to place the best. grades of 

 comb honey at more than 17 cts. per lb., with the 

 majority of the receipts selling at 15 to 16. The 

 amber grades range from 1 to 3 less. The weather 

 has been too warm up to this time to place honey 

 with the general trade; but now that the peach sea- 

 son is drawing to a close there is a probability of a 

 much more active market. Extracted honey is also 

 quiet, with the white grades bringing from 8 to 9 ; 

 amber, 7 to 8, according to kind and quality. Ex- 

 tracted in barrels sells at from % to 1 ct. per lb. 

 less than in cans, as the trade no longer wants it 

 in that shape. Beeswax is steady at from 30 to 32, 

 iiccording to color and cleanliness.

Zanesville. — The demand for honey continues 

 active and firm. Best grades of white-clover comb 

 we quote at 18 to 20 cts. wholesale; in a jobbing 

 way, 17 to 18. Best white extracted in 60-lb. cans 

 is quoted at 11 cts. down to 9^, according to quan- 

 tity. For beeswax of good quality, producers receive 

 32* cts. in trade, 30 cts. cash. 



Zanesville, O., Sept. 25. E. W. Peirce. 



Liverpool. — Since our last report, about 128 

 barrels of Chilian honev have been sold — fine pile X 

 at $8.64; pile 1 at $7.32 to $7.68; pile 2 at $6.84 to 

 $7.20, and pile 3 at $6.24. There is a good demand 

 for fine white honey ; but in lower grades there is 

 not much doing. Stocks of Jamaican are exhausted, 

 and there is a retail business doing in Californian 

 honey round about $11.52. There has been more 

 inquirv for beeswax, and 35 bags of Chilian have 

 been sold at $37.62 to $39.48 per cwt., as to quality.
