 ed honey is the cause of a shiw demand from the 

 manufacturers. It forbids an effort on our part to 

 sell. Demand is fair for family use. It bring-s 6@8 

 on arrival. There is no choice comb honey on our 

 market, and prices are nominal at 13@16 in the job- 

 bing way. Beeswax, in fair demand, at 33@25 for 

 good to choice yellow.
