CINCINNATI. 



HONEV.— The demand for extracted is fair, 

 and to all appearances, gradually improving. It 

 brines 6's9c per pound on arrival. Tliere is a 

 small demand for comb honey, but we had small 

 offers only, and a good deal could be sold. It 

 brings 14c per pound on arrival, 



BEESWAX— Offerings plentiful at 3U®32c on 

 arrival. C. F, MuTU, Freeman & Central Ave. 



NEW YORK.

 on this year's crop, we quote ; Fancy white, 1-Ib., 

 16@1HC;' fancy white, 12-Ib., l.'j® 16c; fair to good, 1

Blake & Hiplev. b7 Chatham Street. 



CHICAGO. 



HONEY— The demand for comb is very light. 

 The retailers have bought a little during this 

 month ', but sav that they do not have anv call for 

 it at present. Prices range from li^(«jlt;c per pound 

 for the different sized frames and style of pack- 

 ages. There is a continued dullness in extracted. 

 Some or the new crop is on sale. 



BBESWA.X-Is dull, and J.ic for dark, with 30® 

 32c for yellow, Ia the range of prices, 



K. A. Bpbnktt, 161 South Water 8t, 



SAN FKANCI8C0. 



HONE Y— Receipts are liberal, and stocks are 

 accumulating in the hands of receivers. In other 

 words, the market is crowded with sellers, and 

 there are practically no buyers. It is hardly nec- 

 essary to add that the market is decidedly weak. 

 White to extra white comb, 12<gil3c; dark to good, 

 9(sllc: extracted, choice to extra white. 5@5^c; 

 dark and candied, 4c.

 comb. 'J-lb. sections, 17c; choice white comb, Ic 

 per lb. less, and lower grades in proportion. Ex- 

 traded 7^8c, according to quality. 



In fiincy comb honey the style of package has as 

 much to do with it as the honey itself, and bee- 

 keepers will look to their interests by putting their 

 honey up in the most attriictive shape possible.

To Kentucky Bee-Keepers. 



The president and managers of the 

 Southern Exposition at Louisville, 

 Ky., have appointed the following 

 committee to solicit bees and honey 

 for exhibition at the Exposition : X. 

 P. Allen, G. W. Demaree, Dr. E. 

 Drane, W. Williamson, and J. T. 

 Connelley. 



The committee have fixed the time 

 for the exhibition of bees and honey 

 on Sept. 4, 5, and 6. The committee 

 cannot say that premiums will be 

 offered, but will say that if no pre- 

 i^iums are oifered. that medals, diplo- 

 mas or ribbons will be given for the 

 following : Best comb honey in ship- 

 ping condition, not less than 24 lbs. ; 

 best extracted lioney in shipping con- 

 dition, not less than 24 lbs ; best dis- 

 play of honey ; best colony of Italian 

 bees and queen in observatory hive ; 

 best display of bees and queens ex- 

 hibited in " observatory hives. We 

 hope all bee-keepers in the State will 

 take an interest in the exhibition. 



It is contemplated having an ad- 

 journed meeting of the State Society 

 on Sept, .5, at the Exposition, and 

 that the bees and honey exhibited at 

 the State meeting at Eminence, will 

 be sent to the Exposition at Louis- 

 ville. X. P. Allen, Chr'n Com. 



W The date for holding the next 

 meeting of the North American Bee- 

 Keepers" Society, in the city of 

 Rochester, N. Y., has been fixed for 

 Oct. 28, 29 and SO, 1884. At the last 

 meeting of the Northeastern Bee- 

 Keepers' Association a committee was 

 appointed to secure a Hall and make 

 other necessary arrangements for this 

 meeting. Knowing the men who 

 compose this committee, we can as- 

 sure all who are interested, that the 

 matter is in good hands, and that 

 everything will be arranged for one 

 of the best meetings ever held by the 

 Society. Etwliester is one of the 

 finest cities in the United States, and 

 this should be an enjoyable meeting 

 for all who are interested. We hope 

 soon to announce a complete pro- 

 gramme. C. C. Miller, Sec,
