CITY MARKETS. 

 Detroit.— Ifoxry.— The honey market is very 

 weak, owing- partly to the recent drop in sugar, and 

 to the fact that a good deal is being offered, and the 

 weather is still warm. Good comb is offered for 14(''

Kansas City.— Hnnen. — Receipts quite liberal, 

 and lower prices are the rule. California is now 

 flooding the country with their great surplus of 

 honey, particularly extracted, which may go below 

 6e., although we have as yet sold none at less than 

 7c. Comb is alsoph'iitilul. and large buyers usually 

 get the pi-ices they offir, which now range for a 

 choice article lift ir)c for :Mb. sections; l.")(;2 16 for 1-

A large honey crop. 

 The honey market is badly (hinoi-alized. Buyers 

 north look for a very lar;;*' tro)), and are not dis- 

 posed to take hold. The merchants here don't care 

 to buy any more than they feel umler obligation to 

 take of their customers. From what information 

 we can gather, the crop of extiacted honey will be 

 considerable as compared with recent years, but 

 nothing like the extraordinary crop of 1877. It will, 

 however, be a large crop. The quality has never 

 been excelled. So many bee-men have decided that 

 it is more profitable to use extractors or strainers 

 than to market the comb, that the proportion of 

 comb to the total yield is much less than in other 

 good honey years. It is probal)le that present 

 prices, or something near them, will be maintained, 

 say 4(2 cts. for extracted in new cases and cans, 

 and 9 to 11 for the best comb.— ,Sa)i Dieiju Sun.

KIND FRIENDS, I am glad to state that T never 

 sold queens that gave as much sat is tact ion as 

 does the cross between Italians, C\iirians, and 

 Holy-Lands. They are undoubtedly less apt to sting 

 than an\' race of bees; and for lion('\-, I shall not 

 hesitate' tor a moment to state that tli'ey beat them 

 ail: and I'or beauty. I on\y ask you to sciid two letter 



yourself. I can also I'urnish the very best queens, 

 raised from imported Italians, to those who prefer 

 them. Price of either race, untested, but laying, 

 90 cts. each. Tested, .§1.51) each. Full instructions 

 sent with each queen, and safe arrival gmiranteed. 



Who will send *50 lor 100 untested <iueens, and 

 give me 30 days in which to fill the order? Or who 

 will send me $30 for .50 on same terms;' I would 

 most probably begin to send some on receipt of 

 order. All over two orders for ItK) will be returned.
