Chicago, Dec. 7.— The market is well supplied 

 with all kinds of honey; the demand is of a 

 light nature. Fancy comb honey bring-s 14c, 

 but quality as well as appearance is necessary; 

 No. I sells at 12!^@13c; ofE grades difficult to 

 move at l@3c less. Extracted, choice white, 

 7@7Hc; amber, 6(g^7c, with off grades about S^c 

 per pound. Beeswax, 30c. 



R. A. Burnett & Co. 



New York, Dec. 7.— Receipts of late have 

 been quite heavy, and while there has been a 

 fair demand, it has not been up to former years 

 and stocks are somewhat accumulating, conse- 

 quently prices show a tendency to decline, and 

 in larg'e lots quotation prices as a rule are 

 shaded. We quote fancy white at 14@15c; No. 

 1 white at 12#13c; amber, lie; buckwheat, 10c. 

 Extracted in fair demand at 6(§i6J^c for white 

 clover; 51*0 for buckwheat; 50((w60c per g-allon 

 for Southern, according to quality. Beeswax 

 firm at from 28@29c. 



HildrethA Sbgblken. 



Philadelphia, Dec. 24.— As usual around the 

 holidays, there is not much call for either comb 

 or extracted honey. Prices remain about the 

 same as the last quotations. Some odd lots 

 having- arrived in the market in the last lOdays 

 has weakened the price of lower grades. Fancy 

 white comb, 15@16 cents; No. 1, 13@14c; amber, 

 ll("I2c. Extracted, white, 7(g8c; amber, 6@7c. 

 Beeswax, 26c. 



We are producers of honey and do not handle 

 on commission. Wm. A. Selser, 



Boston, Nov. 19.— Recent heavy arrivals to- 

 gether with very low quotations from some 

 other markets have had a tendency to weaken 

 our market. We quote fancy No. 1, 15fcl6c; 

 No. 2, 14c, with ample stocks; absolutely nocall 

 for buckwheat. Extracted honey, 6@Sc. 



Blake, Scott & Lkb. 



Cincinnati, Dec. 10. — The demand for honey 

 at the present time is not good, owing to the ap- 

 proach of the holidays, when too many sweets 

 are found on the market. On the other hand, 

 the trade is well supplied with comb honey, 

 that will require a considerable length of time 

 to be coufiuraed. We are offering white clover 

 extracted honey in barrels and cans at 6K'y854 

 cents; amber, S%@bhic. Fancy comb honev, 

 12>i@14c. Beeswax, 29@30c. 



ThbFrkd W.Muth Co. 



Albany, N.Y., Nov. 9.— The crop of honey is 

 tnrning out to be larger than estimated, and 



prices are softening, favoring the buyer. We 

 quote fancy white, 15c; A No. 1, 14c; No. 1, 13c; 

 mixed, ll@12c; buckwheat, best, 13c; average 

 run, ll((il2c. Extracted, buckwheat, 6c; white 

 clover, 6Hc; mixed, 6c. Beeswax, 29@30c. 



H. R. Wright. 



Kansas City, Sept. 22.— Market on comb 

 honey is quite active at $2.75 per case for fancy 

 white stock. Extracted rather slow at 6M@7c. 

 We look for the demand on extracted to pick up 

 considerably with cooler weather. Beeswax in 

 good demand at 30c per pound. 



C. C. Clkmons & Co. 



Cincinnati, O., Dec. 19.— Comb honey is now 

 coming in more freely, and prices if anything 

 have moderated a little. The sales made and 

 prices obtained were for No. 1 fancy water-

 tracted is sold ai follows: White clover, in 

 barrels, 6>^c; in cans, 7M@8c; amber, in bar- 

 rels, 5J4@5^c; in cans, 6@6Hc. Beeswax, 27c. 

 C. H. W. Weber 



San Francisco, Dec. 14. — White comb. 1-lb. 

 sections, ll>i@12Hc; amber, 9®llc. Extracted 

 white, 6@6K cents; light amber, 4Ji@5Kc; am- 

 ber, 3>':i@4Jic; dark amber, 3@3J6c. Beeswax, 

 good to choice, light, 29@30c; dark, 27@28c. 



The market is quiet. Stocks are not of large 

 volume, either here or in the interior, but some 

 of the principal holders are urging honey to 

 sale, being desirous of effecting a clean-up al 

 an early date. 



"What Happened to Ted" 



BY ISABELLB HORTON. 



This is a true story of the poor and unfor- 

 tunate in city life. Miss Horton, the author, 

 is a deaconess whose experiences among the 

 city poverty stricken are both interesting and 

 sad. This particular short story — 60 pages, 

 5x6% inches, bound in paper cover — gives 

 somewhat of an insight into a little of the 

 hard lot of the poor. Price, postpaid, only 10 

 cent" (stamps or silver.) Address,
