Since our last the sales of honey have not 

 been large, altbo a fair demand has ex- 

 isted and continues, altho the fruit consump- 

 tion makes some difference with eaterd of 

 honey. There is not a very large supply of 

 old stock left, and we shall be In good order 

 for new crop both extracted and comb. The 

 outlook is good, A. V. Bishop & Co.

 demand lor strictly fancy 1-pound comb, at
