R. C. Greer & Co.. 1 17 N. Main Street. 



SAN FRANCISCO. 



HONEY— The southern boat this week brought 

 168 cases, principally comb. It is next to impossi- 

 ble to And buyers at current figures, e.xcept where 

 a case or two is retailed to some small dealer. 

 There would be no trouble in placing all offerings 

 to wholesale buyers, if concessions were made, but 

 this holders are endeavoring to avoid, at the same 

 time being anxious to realize. 



We quote white comb, ]H(aJ20c.: dark to good, 10® 

 14c. Extracted, choice to extra white. S^^fi^lOc.: 

 dark and candied. 7(5sc. BEESWAX— 23(*u25g. 

 Stearns & SiMitu. 423 Front Street. 



CINCINNATI. 



HONEY— Our honey trade is a little slow just 

 now, perhaps because of the unfavorable weather ; 

 but it has i,>een flrst-class. My sales during two 

 ■weeks in the month of October amounted to 

 22,orKj lbs. of extracted honey— more honey than I 

 ever sold in two weeks before. About \o.(»»~i lbs. of 

 the above was sold bythe barrel, and almost all the 

 balance in our square pound jars, and all these 

 latter, with the exception of about i'"' gross, were 

 sold in our city, partly in shipping orders and partly 

 in crates for the tra"de. Pound glass jars are by 

 far the handsomest retail packages. They do not 

 sell in <_'hicaeo nor in New York because adultera- 

 tors have spoiled the retail trade especially for ex- 

 tracted honey. Thev used glas^jars. But I doubt 

 very much whether I should have created a retail 

 market f<»r extracted honey with the same success 

 had I not adopted the square glass jar. I adopted 

 it because adulterators were using the round bot- 

 tles. For m and '2r> lb. packages nothing is handier 

 than tin buckets, and I have a good trade forthem 

 from druggists, bakers, retail grocers, etc. 



I pay Ni"-iic. for extracted honey on arrival, and 

 IGfifii^^c.. for choice comb honev. 



BEESWAX.— iS(S,22c.. on arrival. I have paid 

 25c. per lb. for choice lots. C. F. Muth.
