 I. F. MILLER, BROOKVILLE, PA. 



Chicago. May 18.— The volume of trade is 

 very narrow and consists in dealers buyine 

 just a little to have it on hand when inquired 

 for. No longer is there a show made of it on 

 the counters, etc.. as in winter months, all 

 of which is a seasonable condition. The 

 fancy grades are not plentiful, and continue 

 to bring from ugisc per pound, according to 

 the flavor, style and everything else that 

 goes to make a fancy article. Anything off 

 from this grade sells at from i^'ic per pound 

 less with amber grades bringing from io@i2c 

 per pound. Extracted is meetingwith prac- 

 tically no demand, and prices are inclined 

 to be easy, especially is this so aside from 

 fancy clover and linden, which, like the 

 comb, is in better demand and more firmly 

 held. Beeswax continues to sell upon arri 

 \'al at from ?3@35c per pound according to 

 color and cleanliness. 



R. A, Burnett & Co, 



Cincinnati, Mayi?.— It is an effort to make 

 honey sales, and the stock of all grades are 

 hea\-y for this time of the year. Prices are 

 easier than they were, 'We note many deal- 

 ers slashing prices to unload. We are sell- 

 ing fancy comb honey at J3.f>5 to $i.7S per case 

 wholesale. Extracted amber honey from 

 S/^(?6Jic a pound. White extracted from 

 7/^@ioc a pound, according to quantity and 

 quality purchased. We want beeswax at 

 32c a pound delivered here. 



The Fred W. Muth Co. 



Indianapolis. Mav 17.— Kancy white comb 

 honey is being offered here at i6@i7c 

 per pound; amber comb at I4@i5c. White 

 clover extracted g@ioc in 5-gallon cans. 

 Much comb is being held here, but at this 

 wilting there is very little demand. Ex- 

 tracted is in fair demand. Producers are 

 being paid 32c cash for beeswax or 34c in 

 trade. Walter S. Pouder, 



Boston. May 18,— tancy and No. i white 



comb, is®i6cper pound, Kancy white ex- 

 tracted in 6Q-pound cans, iic per pound. 

 Beeswax. 30c. Blake. -Lee Company. 



Kansas City. Mo., May is.— Our market is 

 about cleaned upon comb honey— not a case 

 left in the wholesalers' hands, and very lit- 

 tle left in the retailers'. Plenty of extracted 

 honey, and the demand is very light. 



New comb honey in 24 sections should sell 

 for $3.25 to $',.50 per case for No. 1 quality. 

 We quote extracted, white, at 7Jj@8c a 

 pound. On beeswax we quote 30c for No. i. 

 and zsc for No. 2 quality. 



C. C, Clemons Produce Company, 



Denver. May 16,— We have no more comb 

 honey to offer. Are selling extracted honey 

 in a jobbing way at following prices White 

 extracted, 8c; light amber, 7c. We pay 32c 

 per pound cash and 34C in trade for clean 

 yellow beeswax delivered here. 



The Colo, Honey-Producers' Ass'n. 

 Frank Rauchfuss. Mer. 



Los Angeles, May 20.— I beg to advise you 

 that that quotations on honey at present are 

 as follows: Light amber alfalfa. S/^c; light 

 amber sage. 6c; fancy white sage and white 

 orange, 7®8c.Beeswax is in very light supply. 

 and is quoted at 32c. 



Hamilton & Mendrrson. 



New York. May iv.— As tocomb honey, we 

 have nothing new to report. There are quite 

 some off grades of amber still on the market 

 unsold, as there is no demand to speak of 

 for those grades, and it is almost impossible 

 to find buyers. 



In regard to extracted, the demand is only 

 fair while arrivals are large, especially from 

 ■West Indies, and the new crop is beginning 

 to arrive from the southern States, We 

 quote nominally from 58@75C per gallon, ac- 

 cording to quality. Beeswax firm at 34@35C 

 Hildreth & Segelken.
