American ^c^Jonrnaij 



Chicago. March 27. —The demand for comb 

 honey is unusually limited, the little that 

 does sell is the highest grade; for ambers 

 and combs with empty cells it is difficult to 

 find a purchaser. Prices are practically un- 

 changed since Quotations given in March. 

 Extracted is firm, owing to scarcity; but the 

 volume of business done in it is small. White. 

 <i@ioc: ambers. 8@oc. Beeswax sells upon 

 arrival at .12c, if clean and pure. 



R. A. Burnett & Co. 



Cincinnati. March 27.— At the present 

 time, we have no comb honey to offer. Ex- 

 tracted table-honey is in fair demand, and is 

 bringing loc per lb. put up in bo-lb. cans. 

 Amber honey in barrels is selling at 8c. 

 Beeswax is selling at $33 per 100 lbs. These 

 are our selling prices, not what we are pay- 

 ing. C. H. W. Weber & Co.

The Colo. Honev-Producers' Ass'n. 

 F. Rauchfuss. Mer, 



New York. March 27. — Trade on comb 

 honey is quiet. Some little demand for 

 strictly fancy whitestock. but sufficient sup- 

 ply. Off grades, mixed and buckwheat are 

 dragging. Fancy white still brings from 

 I4<^ 15c per pound, while on all other grades 

 prices are nominal, and in quantity lots 

 must be shaded considerably in order to 



effect sales. We can not encourage ship- 

 ments on comb honey for the present. Ex- 

 tracted is in good demand, especially for 

 fancy grades, which are scarce and hard to 

 obtain. No change in price from our last 

 quotations. Beeswax quiet at 2o@30c.

Indianapolis. March 27.— There is a good 

 and steady demand here for best grades of 

 comb and extracted honey. Jobbing houses 

 are well supplied, but practically none is 

 now being offered by producers, and it is 

 evident that there will be a shortage before 

 the new crop can arrive. Fancy white comb
