New York.— Honey.— The season for the new 

 crop of comb honey is just opening-. We note an 

 improvement in sales and prices. Most of the comb 

 wliich we have seen is badly colored, which makes 

 it second grade, which we suppose is due to a poor 

 season and long- finishing-. We quote 1886 crop as 

 follows: 

 Taney white 1-lb. sect's, clean and neat p'k'gs. 15@.16

Cincinnati.— Tfoiicy.— The markfit for honey is 

 very tame. Demand from manufacturers is slow, 

 and there is only a fair trade in new comb honey, 

 and extracted honey in square glass jars. Extract- 

 ed honey brings S'eS'Tc. per lb. on arrival. Comb 

 honey brings 12(a'14 for good to choice in the jobbing 

 way. Prices are low tor all produce, and no spec- 

 ulative feeling is noticed any where. Unless better 

 prices are realized for other produce, prices of hon- 

 ey are not likely to advance. Bccsivax is in good 

 demand, and arrivals are fair. We pay 20c. per lb. 

 for good yellow. Chas. F. Muth & Son,

Boston.— Hoxei/.— New honey is coming in, and 

 selling fairly well, but the recent hot wave has 

 checked it some. We have heard from most of the 

 bee-keepers of Addison Co., Vt., and there will not 

 be over half a crop there. We are selling one- 

 pound white honey at U(i(.15c. ; two pounds, 13@14.
