Honey & Beeswax Market Quotations. 



ALBANY, N. Y., Sept. 5.— There is begin- 

 ning to be more call for honey and receipts 

 are higher as yet. While there is no doubt a 

 moderate crop there is also a lack of money 

 with the consumer to pay high prices, and we 

 don't look for fancy prices. We quote: White 

 comb, 14@15c.; mixed, 12®13c.: dark.ll® 

 12c. Extracted, white, 7@7 He; mixed. 65/2® 

 754c.; dark, 6c. Beeswax scarce, 28@30c.

BUFFALO, N. Y., Sept. 7.-The demand for 

 honey as yet is moderate, owing to the liberal 

 supply of fruit, etc. ; as soon as these early 

 fall fruits are done we anticipate quite an im- 

 provement and good demand. Few sales of 

 fancy No. 1 comb are being made at mostly 

 12c„ occasionally 14c. B. & Co. 



NEW FORK, N. Y., Aug. ll.-Our market 

 is well stocked with all kinds of extracted 

 honey, and trade Is quiet. We quote: White 

 clover and basswood. 6@6 i4c. a pound ; South- 

 ern, 50@65c. per gallon, according to quality. 

 A few lots of new comb honey arrived, but 

 the trade on these goods has not opened as 

 yet. In two weeks we will be able to make 

 prices. Beeswax is quiet at 2654@27c. 



H. B. &S. 



CHICAGO, I1.L., Aug. 23.-Choice lots of 

 white comb honey are selling at 15c. per 

 pound. The demand is not at all brisk. Ex- 

 tracted brings 5@7c., as quality, flavor and 

 package warrants. As yet little dark comb is 

 offered, and it does not sell at over 10c. Bees- 

 wax, 25c. R. A. B. & Co. 



KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Sept, 8.-The supply 

 of comb and extracted is very light with only 

 fair demand. We quote: Fancy white, 15® 

 16c.; amber, ll@12c.: dark. 10c. Extracted, 

 white, 6i^®7c.; amber, 6@654c.; dark. 4i/4® 

 bViC. Beeswax, 22c. H. & B. 



NEW YORK, N. Y.,Aug. 23.-We have had 

 a few inquiries for new comb honey; also 

 have had some small shipments of new crop. 

 Demand is as yet limited, but expect a good 

 opening. The weather is too warm yet and 

 the consumption is hardly begun yet. Prices 

 now ruling would not be a criterion of what 

 the prices will be when the season has fairly 

 opened. We quote: 1-lb. clover— fancy. 14c. ; 

 fair, 12®13c.; mixed, 10@llc. Extracted is 

 in better demand for manufacturing pur- 

 poses. Southern, 50®60c. per gallon: North- 

 ern. 5@7c. i)er pound. Beeswax, 25®28c. 



C. I. & B. 



CINCINNATI, O., Sept. 8.— There is a good 

 demand for comb honey at 14@16c. a pound 

 for choice white, in the jobbing way. Demand 

 has been fair for extracted honey at 4@6c. a 

 pound on arrival. Supply Is good. It is un- 

 wise counsel to bee-keepers " to hold on " to 

 their honey. Our experience of the past is 

 ample proof that comb honey brings the be§t 

 prices from Septemiier on, while the n:arkct 

 18 not yet overstocked. The reverse has al- 

 ways been the case about Christmas time, and 

 " holders-on " were disappointed. Our expe- 

 rience of the past will repeat itself this year, 

 as usual. 



Beeswax Is in good demand at 20®25c. for 

 good to choice yellow. C. F. M. & S.

worth having. Mr. A. G. Amos, of New

 and it is a dandy." Better get one your- 

 self, and then you will know what a 

 " dandy " thing it is. See page 3.53 for ad-
