Honey Reports continued from page 2. 



Vlbanv. — The honey demand increasing now. 

 AVo quote white comb 15 to 16. Possibly we could 

 safely quote 2 cents higher for single cases of 

 strictly fancy in quality, style, etc. No buckwheat 

 is appearing yet; it would sell at 13. Extracted 

 is quiet as yet, at 8 to 9 for white clover or 

 basswood. _ ,„ 



Albany, N. Y., Aug. 22. H. R. Weight.

Kansas City, Aug. 20. 



St. Louis. — New comb honey commences to ar- 

 rive from Southern apiaries, and choice white is 

 selling at 16 to 17; amber, 14 to 15, and dark, 

 11 to 12. We have no new prices on extracted 

 honey to report. There is a good supply and de- 

 mand for choice Southern in barrels, at 7 cents, 

 and in five-gallon cans at Ty2. Beeswax is in good 

 rl^mand at 29 cents for prime; inferior and impure, 

 less. R. Hartmann Produce Co. 



rft. Louis, Mc, Aug. 20, 



Zanesville. — Honey, particularly comb, is mov- 

 ing a little better now than for some time past. 

 The jobbing trade is still understocked, and now 

 i.s a more favorable time for producers to unload 

 than later; 14 to 16 cts. is being offered producers for 

 No. 1 and fancy white-clover comb, and 8 to 8 Vz 

 for best white extracted. Prices to the trade are 

 arbitrary as yet, but grade from 19 % down, on 

 comb, according to grade and quantity. As here- 

 tofore, producers of beeswax are offered 28 in 

 cash or 30 in exchange for supplies. 



Zanesville, O., Aug. 21. E. W. Peirce. 



Chicago. — Comb honey has sold promptly upon 

 arrival during the month, and up to this c'rte 

 tliere is none that has been on the market beyond 

 the time necessary to get it in shape to sell. The 

 price ranges from 17 to 18 for No. 1 to fancy 

 white. There has not been much inquiry for the 

 amber grades, and practically none are offeied. 

 Extracted is without change, but is not active. For 

 clover and basswood in the 60-lb. tin cans, sales 

 are made at 9 to 10 cts. Amber grades range from 

 7 to 8. Beeswax remains unchanged at from 30 

 to 32, if free from sediment and other foreign 

 matter. 



Chicago, HI., Aug. 21. R. A. Burnett & Co. 



San Francisco. — The demand for comb honey 

 is still beyond the supply, and fancy No. 1 is still 

 very limited, and the shipments are taken up im- 

 mediately on arrival. Extracted honey, too, has 

 come in, and several carloads have arrived, and the 

 demand for water-white honey is beyond the sup- 

 ply. There is a good supply of the amber and 

 light-amber lioneys ; and from present indications 

 the demand will be met. Fancy white comb brings 

 16 to 17; dark to amber, 13% to 15; river comb, 

 11 to 121/4. Water-white extracted brings 8 to 

 8 V2 ; light amber, 7 % to 8 ; amber, 6 to 7 1/^ ; lower 

 grades, 5 to 6»,^. Beeswax brings 27 1^ to 30 for 

 nice yellow; 23 to 26 for the dark. 



San Francisco, Aug. 15. J. C. Frohlicee. 



Liverpool. — Since we last wrote you, there has 

 been scarcely any inquiry for honev. The only 

 sale of Chilian is 22 barrels at $7.20, pile 3. 

 California market is quiet. Thirty cases of fine 

 sold at retail at $11.04; Jamaican, $6.00 to $8.40 

 per cwt. is quoted; only a few barrels sold. We 

 hope the demand will come on shortly. Other de- 

 scriptions are quoted as follows: Haitien, $5.76 

 to $7.20; Peruvian, $3.84 to $4.80; Chilian, $5.72 

 to $8.16; Jainaican, $6.24 to $7.68; Californian, 

 $9.60 to $10.80. Beeswax, 15 bags Chilian sold 

 at $37.48 to $39.02 for medium to fine. The mar- 

 ket is steady, but without much inquiry. Other 

 descriptions are quoted as follows: African, $33.16 

 to $34.48; Jamaican, $37.00; West Indies, $32.64 

 to $36.28.

New York. — New crop of comb honey is in good 

 demand, and receipts are gradually getting larger, 

 and will continue so from now on. Fancy white 

 sells at 15 cts., with some exceptionally fine stock 

 at 16; No. 1 at 14, No. 2 at 13, per pound, and 

 amber at 12. No buckwheat is on the market as 

 yet, and we do not expect any for ten days or two 

 weeks. Extracted is in fair demand at 8V2 to 9 

 for whitfe clover; 7^ to 8 for fancy light amber; 

 7 to TV2 for amber. No change in beeswax.
