Honey & Beeswax Market Quotations. 



CHICAGO. Ill, June 7. —We baveour usual 

 dull sea■^on which we look forward to and ex- 

 pect. Honey is entirely forgotten durinsr the 

 months of June, July and August. The mar- 

 ket is pretty well cleaned up of all grades of 

 honey, so the prospects are encouraging for 

 the coming season. We are getting I3@14c. 

 for light comb. J.A.I*. 



KANSAS CITV, Mo.. June 3 —We quote: 

 No 1 white comb honev, l-lbs, 13@l4c.: No. 

 2. ll@12c.; No. 1 amber, 10c ; No. 2. 8c. 

 Extracted, white. 7c.; amber, 6c,; dark, 5c, 



Beeswax, 22c, C, C. C & Co, 



CHICAGO, III., May 23, — The trade in 

 comb honey is very light at this time of the 

 year— as it is between seasons. Soon we will 

 get the new crop, and It will come on a bare 

 market. Just now what little comb sells 

 brings 14c. for the best grades. Extracted. 

 5H@7c. All good grades ot beeswax. 30c. 



R. A. B. &Co. 



CINCINNATI, O.. June 8— Demand Is slow 

 for comb honey at 12@l6c. for best white. 

 'There Is a fair demand for extracted honey at 

 4@7c. 



Beeswax is in good demand at 25@31c. for 

 good to choice yellow. C. F. M. & S. 



PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. May 18. — Comb 

 honey is In poor demand. Large stores are 

 now waiting for the new crop. Extracted is 

 in fair demand. Beeswax has declined some, 

 but good sales keep market from being over- 

 stocked. We quote: Comb honey. 9c. Ex- 

 tracted, 4 '/jOOc. Beeswax. 29@30c. W. A. S. 



NEW YORK, N. Y.. May 24.— White comb 

 honey is well cleaned up. Considerable buck- 

 wheat remains on the market, and, as the sea- 

 son is about over, some of it will have to be 

 carried over. Extracted is doing fairly well, 

 with plenty of supply to meet the demand. 

 New southern is airiving quite freely. We 

 quote: Extracted, white, eQei^c: amber, 5 

 @51.^c. Southern, common, 45@50c. per gal- 

 lon ; choice, 60®65c. 



While beeswax holds firm at 31@32c., we 

 think it has reached top market and do not 

 expect it to go higher. H. B. & S.
