CITY MARKETS. 



Cincinnati.— Ho/iej/.— There is a fair demand for 

 Choice comb honey in 1 and ,'i lb. sections, which 

 brings 13@15c a lb. in a jobbing- way, according' to 

 qualit.v and neatness of package. There is also a 

 fair retail and jobbing demand for extracted honey 

 in square glass jars for table use, while the order 

 trade for dark grades from manufacturers is im- 

 proving. We quote extracted honey at Si^fS'Tc on 

 arrival, according to quality. Beeswax is in good 

 demand, and good yellow brings readily 20c on ar- 

 rival. CuAS. F. MuTH & Son,

 tions, white, ll@13c. Dark, not wanted. Extracted,

The Chapman Honey-Plant. 



I n accordance 

 with a previous no- 

 tice! in bee-periodi- 

 cals. I am now pre- 

 pared to fill orders 

 for the seed of the 

 above plant at the 

 following prices : 

 'i oz., Sl;'l oz., $3; 

 3oz., f3; 4 oz., $5; 

 1/2 lb., $S. One oz. 

 contains from 1600 

 to 1800 seeds. On 

 account of extreme 

 drought my stock 

 of seed is limited, 

 and persons order- 

 ing will be served 

 in rotation. '.The 

 seed should be 

 sown in the early 

 spring, and general 

 directions for cul- 

 tivation will be giv- 

 en on each pack- 

 age. 



r This plant is not 

 an obnoxious weed, 

 and is as easily 

 eradicated i as clo- 

 ver. Having care- 

 fully watched its 

 habits of growth, 

 and its honey-pro- 

 ducing qualities for the past six years, I believe 

 those who connnence its cultivation in a liberal 

 way will be better pleased than by commencing 

 with a small quantity of seed. It has been tested 

 by prominent bee-keepers all the way from V^er- 

 mont to Nebraska and Ontario. We refer to the 

 report of the committee appointed by the North- 

 American Bee-Keepers' Association held at De- 

 troit in 1886. The committee reported at the Indian- 

 apolis, Ind., convention held Oct. 13th to llth, and 

 their report will be found in all bee-periodicals pub- 

 lishing the report of that convention. 



Write all orders plainly, and give your postoffice 

 address in full.
