Quotations of Cash Buyers. 



CHICAGO. 



HONEY— Aa the season is welt advanced, sales 

 of extracted honey are slow and prices remain un- 

 chant^ed. I am paying 8c. for dark and 10c. for 

 light, cash on arrival. Good comb honey is scarce 

 and rules hiKb. 



BEESWAX— I am paying :24c. for good yellow 

 wax. on arrival ; 18®22c. for medium grade, and 

 lotailTc, for dark. 



AL. H. Newman. 923 \V. Madison St. 



CINCINNATI. 



HONEY— The demand for comb honey is slow, 

 and prices nominal at l(j<si20c. on arrival. Extracted 

 honey is in fair demand. Our jobbing prices for 

 1 lb. jars of clover honey are, per gross, $23 ; for 2 

 lb. do., per gross, $42. The demand for manufac- 

 turing purposes is very good. We pay 8@U)c. on 

 arrival. 



BEESWAX-Brings 18@22c. The demand ex- 

 ceeds the offerings. C. F. Muth. 



Quoiutloiiit or Commission ikterchants. 



CHICAGO. 



HONEY'— The demandftir honey is light, mostof 

 the trade finding fault with the best offered, as it 

 is more or less candied. Values are not steady, 

 prices being made to meet the views of the pur- 

 chaser. 



BEESWA.X -Scarce, and in demand at 23@2:>c. 

 K. A. BuitNETT, i6o South Water St. 



CLEVELAND. 



HONEY— Our honey market would be good, as 

 there is considerable inquiry for white honey in 

 sections, with none to satisfy the demand. It 

 would bring 22c. readily for choice. Buckwheat 

 honey, no sale. Extracted, ll@l2c. per lb.

Stanleys' Vandervort Foundation. 



We have just purchased a large amount of bright 

 yellow beeswax, and are now prepared to furnish 

 comb foundation in any size, either heavy or light. 

 Our old prices were based on the low prices of wax 

 last year, but as wax has now advanced about 4c. 

 per lb., and we have also made great improve- 

 ments in our miJde<)f cleansing the wax, we are 

 obliged to advance the price of our foundation ."ic. 

 per lb., making now thin foundation. Id feet per 

 lb., 5r.c., and heavy foundation,. "i ft. per lb., 43c. If 

 UX) lbs. is wanted at one time, deduct 2c. per lb. 

 from the above list. We wouhl advise our friends 

 to order soon, as we look fnr it still L'rcuter advance 

 in wax, and we cjin make iniK-h irir.T tliiii founda-

TO BEE-KEEPERS. 



Having had so great a call for 

 HivesandSupplies thepastsea- 

 8on, I have purchased steam 

 p'lwer and machinery and fitted 

 up a factory for the sole purpose 

 of manufacturing Apiarian sup- 

 plies. I am now ready to fur- 

 nish Hives. Secti(m Boxes, or 

 anything in the Apiarian line, 

 ki-pton hand or made tn order. 

 Having wintered my bees suc- 

 cessfully tlie past winter, I will 

 sell a few colonies at the follow- 

 ing prices: Black bees, $f!.50 per 

 colony ; Italians. $S.'>0 ; Italian 

 Queens, untested. $1 ; tested, $2. 

 Probably tliere will be no queens 

 ready before June 1st. Bees 

 per pound, $1.50 ; to those not used to introducing 

 queens, it will probably be better to get a pound of 

 bees with a queen, turn them loose on empty 

 combs, or a hive dlled with comb foundation, and 

 they will build up to a good strong colony during 

 the season. L. E. WELCH.Linden, Mich.
