Honey & Beeswax Market (|iiotatioiis. 



The following Quotations are for Saturday, 

 Aug. 12. 189.3 : 



CHICAGO, III.— We quote fancy new honey 

 at 18c. ; No. 2, at 16c. : amber, 15c. Beeswax, 

 22@25c. We have had some shipments of 

 fancy new stocls wnich sold at once. J. A. L. 



CHICAGO, III,.— The receipts of honey are 

 quite liberal; the very best grades are bring- 

 ing 15@16c. The demand just now is hardly 

 equal to the supply, and we are receiving 

 many inquiries concerning the market. We 

 are of the opinion that it will not be any 

 higher but may go lower, as money is very 

 scarce and people seem to economize in the 

 way of honey purchases. The darker grades 

 are not meeting with any demand. IN early 

 all of the new honey is of very fine quality. 

 Extracted is bringing from 5@7c., according 

 to color, flavor and style of package. Bees- 

 wax is very dull at about 20@22c. 



R. A. B. &Co. 



CHICAGO, III.— Honey this year is being 

 placed on the market earlier than last season, 

 but the demand is restricted and will be light 

 until small fruits are out of the market, and 

 with the prospect of a large crop, buyers will 

 be particular as to quality, and the best will 

 find ready sale upon arrival. No. 1 comb, 16c 

 Extracted, as to qualitj% 5@7c.
