HONEY QUOTATIONS 



BOSTON. — Last season's crop of honey is 

 all closed out and fancy new white comb we 

 expect to sell here at 20 cents per lb., and we 

 want the first that can be obtained for our best 

 trade. Communications in regard to honey is 

 solicited. White extracted, 10 to lie per lb.; 

 wax, 30c.

TOLEDO— Replying to your letter of July 

 29th, beg to advise that there is little doing in 

 the honey business at the present time, very 

 little old honey left, and no new coming in, 

 and so far no prices have been made, every 

 one waiting to see how the new crop is going 

 to turn out. Fancy New Comb Honey would 

 bring in a retail way 17 to 18c per lb.; No. 1, 

 16 to 17c per lb.; extracted white clover, 8^ 

 to 10c per lb., depending on color, quality, etc. 

 Beeswax is selling at from 32 to 35c. The 

 above are our selling prices, and not what 

 we are paying. 



July 30. S. J. GRIGGS & CO. 



KANSAS- CITY — New comb honey arriv- 

 ing on the market. No. 1 white selling at 

 $3.50 per case of ■24 sections, last year's ex-

CINCINNATI— There is still some old 

 comb honey in the market, and with very lit- 

 tle demand. New comb honey has not yet 

 arrived, and price will be lower than last 

 ^e^son, ?s there is a good crop in general. 

 ^V'ater white extracted honey in 60 pound cans 

 is selling from 9 to 9'/4 cents according to 

 quantity. Light amber in barrels from 6^-2 to 

 Tyi cents, in cans from 8 to SYz cents. Bees- 

 wax is selling at $33.00 per hundred. The 

 above are our selling prices, not what we are 

 paying. C. H. W. WEBER & CO.. 



July 18. 2146-2147 Central Ave. 



CINCINNATI — At this writing we have re- 

 ceived several shipments of new Comb Honey. 

 However, owing to the heavy crop reported 

 everywhere, also noting that several cities 



have unsold Comb Honey from last year, the 

 demand is not up to our expectations by far. 

 For this reason, conditions must be looked 

 into, and a range of prices is necessary in 

 order to open up the season and enliven the 

 buyers. 



The little comb honey that is moving we 

 are selling at 13 to 16 cents a lb.; and fancy 

 extracted honey at Syic a lb. to 10c, accord- 

 ing to the quality and quantity purchased. 

 Amber honey in barrels we are selling at 

 from eyic to 7^c a lb. The above are selling 

 prices. 



For strictly choice, bright yellow beeswax, 

 we are paying 28c a lb. in cash or 30c a lb. in 

 trade. THE FRED W. MUTH CO., 



"The Busy Bee Men." 

 51 Walnut St., Cincinnati, Ohio. 



July 15. 



DENVER, COL.— Old crop comb honey all 

 sold. We expect the first of the new crop by 

 the middle of July if weather conditions are 

 favorable. We have a good stock of very fine 

 extracted honey which we are quoting in a 

 jobbing way at 9c for strictly white, 8c for 

 light amber, 6^ to 7 '/4c for strained. We 

 pay 26c in cash and 28c in trade per lb. for 

 clean yellow beeswax delivered at Denver. 

 Yours verv truly,

NEW YORK. — Nothing new in comb honey; 

 small shipments of new crop are coming in 

 from the South and are selling at from 13c to 

 16c according to quality. Extracted honey. — • 

 Arrivals of new crop from the South are now 

 coming in quite freely, as well as from the 

 West Indies. Prices are rather unsettled as 

 yet, ranging all the way from 70c to 90c per 

 gallon, according to quality. Reports from 

 California are rather conflicting, some of them 

 estimating this year's crop at 500 cars, while 

 others claim a very short crop. No offerings 

 have been made as yet that we know of, and 

 no prices established. Beeswax steady at from 

 30c to 31c.
