The offerings ot comb honey are fully equal 

 to the demand Ihls w^ek. Tlie trade lakes 

 very sparingly of it during thetly time. Th' re 

 continues to be a light call lor extracted, 

 while lor beeswaxasteady demand continues. 



Uilwankee, Wis., Atig. 14.— Fancy white, 

 13 to i:Jo ; No. 1, 10 to lie; fancy amber. 8

 Beeswax. "2.h to 27c. 



The remnants of old crop honey remaining 

 are not very large, and mostly of common and 

 medium quality, and such is very hard to sell 

 at any price. There has been some new ex- 

 tracted received, but not of the best quality 

 —think It was extracted too soon, as it Is thin 

 and watery, and not very salable. The de- 

 mand is as good as usual at tbis season Think 

 we are sale in holding out encouragement to 

 shippers that for the new crop of choice qual- 

 ities of comb and extracted honey this mar- 

 ket will give them as good results as any 

 other. 



Cincinnati, Ohio, Ang. 9.— Fancy white. 

 11 to lyc: No. 1. 10 to lie; No. 1 amber, 7 

 to 10c. E.\tracted, white. 5 to 6c.; amber. 4 

 to 5c.; dark, 3V4 to 4c. Beeswax, 20 to 25c. 



Demand Is fair so far for best qualities of 

 comb honey. We have hardly ever yet, at 

 this time of the rear, di«posed of as much 

 honey as we did this season. Arrivals have 

 been liberal so far. 



Albany, W. Y., Jnly 31.— Fancy white, 11® 

 12c.; faoc.v amber, 7@8c.: fancy dark. 6@8c. ; 

 white, extracted. 5c ; dark. 4c. 



But very little is doing In honey this month. 

 There is a small stock or inferior comb honey 

 on the market, and quite a little extracted. 

 Bees are said to be doing nicely in this sec- 

 tion. 



Minneapolis, Minn,, An?. 9, — Fancy 

 white. 11 to l.ic; No. 1, lu to lie; fancy 

 amber. 9 to lOc. ; No. 1 . 8 to 9c ; fancy dark, 

 8 to 9c.: No. 1 d«rk. to 7c. Extracted, 

 white, 5 to 6c. Beeswax, 23 to 2oc. 



Stocks comparatively bare. Fair demand. 

 Goods here now would meet with good sales. 



Detroit,Mirh., Ang, 10— Fancy white, 11 

 to 12c.; No. 1 white, 10-llc. Extracted, white. 

 5to5V4c. Beeswax. 25 to 26c. 



No dark honey of this year's crop yet offered.

 12c.; No. 1. lie; fancy amber. lOc. Ex- 

 tracted, white. 5 to 5!stc.; amber, 4^ to 4Jic. 

 Beeswax, 26 to 27c. 



There is some demand for new crop comb, 

 and some lots we received sold ;tt from 10 to 

 12c. a pound. Prices for new crop are not 

 settled, as our market actually does not open 

 up before about Sept. 1. Extracted: Market 



§uiet and easy, with large supp y from the 

 outh and California. We quote: California 

 light amber. 44 to 41ic.; white. 5 to h\c. 

 Southern, 50 to 55e a gallon, according to 

 quality. Beeswax without change. 



Kansas City, Mo.. Ang. 10.— Fancy white. 

 ISc: No. 1. 11 to 12c.: tancy amber, 10 io

 No. 1,7 to 8c. Extracted, white. 5 to oWc ■ 

 amber, 4 to 4 i^c: dark, 3>4 to 4c, Beeswax, 

 25c. 



There is very little demand for honey this 

 hot weather, but will Improve with cooler 

 weather. 



Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 7.— Fancy white 

 10lol2>4e;No l.atolOc. Extracted, white' 

 5 to 6c.: amber, 4 to 5c. Beeswax. 25 to 27c 



I have received several lots of comb honey 

 which was billed to me as - lancy white," but 

 on opening a case I found that It was fancv 

 white next lo the glass onlv. the rest being 

 old soiled sections with crooked combs and 

 dark honey. I don't know that the power of 

 the press will ever reach this class of pro- 

 ducers, but such goods have to be recrated 

 and reweighed. and are not satisfactory after 

 all. 



Boston, Mass., Ang, 9. — Fancy white. 

 13c.: No. 1. 12c. Extracted, white. 6 to 7c • 

 amber. 5 to 6c. Beeswax. 27c. 



New comb now arriving in small lots, but 

 fully equal to the demand. Beeswax is 

 wanted, and practically none here. 



St. Xionis, Mo., Ang. 9.— Fancy white. 12 

 to 12!4c,; No. 1. 11 to ll Vic: fancy amber. 10 

 tolOVic: No. 1. rt to OHc fancy dark. 8 to 

 840,; No. r. .■) to 7c. Extracted, white, 5 to 

 5!4o.; amber, 4 to 4Hc.: dark. 3>4 to 4c. Bees- 

 wax, 24 lo24!4c. 



The weather so far this season has been too 

 warm for the free movement of honey, but 

 with the present prices on sui^ar we think 

 there should be a ^'ood demand for extracted 

 honey at the above prices. One car of 24,000 

 pounds sold since our last quotation on basis 

 of above prices. Beeswax finds ready sale at 

 2*0. lor prime, while choice stock brings a 

 little more. 



San Francisco, Calif., Ang. 4. — White 

 comb. 1-lbs.. 7 tolte; amber comb. 4 to 6c. 

 Extracted, white. 4 ;4 to 5c.; light amber. 3^ 

 to 4c.; diuk tule. %%a. Beeswax, fair to 

 choice. 25-26e 



While the market is notespeclaIlyweik.it 

 Is quiet. There is considerably more offering 

 than can be accommodated with custom at 

 full current fl^uies. Only on local account 

 are top prices obtainable, and the quantity 

 required for home use is light. There are no 

 excessive stojks of beeswax on toe market, 

 and not likeij' to be the current season. 



Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 10.— Fancy white, 

 12^4 ro 13o.: No. 1. 11 to I2e; fancy amber, 

 9e. Extracted, white, 6 to 7c. 



Very little new honey in the merket. The 

 demand for new honey the past week was 

 fairly well thus early In the season. No de- 

 mand for old honey whatever.

 to .5c.; dark. 4 to 4;^c. Beeswax, 23 to -^Se. 



Moderate demand for any grade. Better 

 hold till October, when we can place liberal 

 quantities. 



Philadelphia, Pa., Aug 10.— Fancy white. 

 12 to 13c ; No 1.11 to 12c.: fancy amber. 10

For Indigestion.— Apple seeds 

 — the inside of 'ein — is tine for indlges- 

 tlou. 



For Rheumatism.— Peach pits 

 eaten now and then are good for rheu- 

 matisna. 



For Lazy LiTer. — May-apples, 

 eaten morning and bed-time, stir up a 

 lazy liver. 



Oood for 'Warts.— Arbor vilie 

 — the evergreen they make hedges of — 

 pounded and applied is good for warts. 



A Honey Cough Syrup. — 



Honey and onion-juice, equal parts 

 boiled together, makes a fine cough 

 syrup. 



Tannings are of two kinds. That 

 done by the sun is a blessing, to old or 

 young. That done back in the woodshed 

 by the boy's father — depends. 



Grandma, don't forget this is the 

 right time of year to gather and dry your 

 routs and herbs. Don't fail to hang 

 them up in the shade. The sun kills 

 their effective properties and leaves them 

 worthless for medicinal purposes. 



Bee-Stings — I've been practicing 

 recently. So many cures for them, too. 

 But they are never at hand. Just scrape 

 off the sting and Immediately squeeze 

 the place that's stung. That extracts 

 the poison, and you're all right. 



Slaking Vourself Sick.— Of 



all the year the opportunity for making 

 one's self sick is the month of September. 

 Then nearly all fruit is so plentiful and 

 ripe that the desire for gorging the inner 

 man is almost past resisting. Yet there 

 is no need of it. Simply eat often and 

 not so much at a time. Luscious water- 

 melon won't hurt any one If eaten in 

 moderation. Same can be said of his 

 button-hole cousin — the "mush" — yel- 

 low as gold and sweet as honey ! 



Nice, ripe " seeks " " snows " and Tal- 

 man sweets are excellent, baked, stewed 

 or off-hand. The garden, too. affords so 

 much " sass " at this time. All delicious 

 from " cuke" to "ignous." But don't eat 

 too much at once — that's all.
