HONEY AND BEESWAX 



CiiiCAiiO. Dec. 18.— Comb honey continues 

 to drag. One hundred pounds of extracted 

 to 10 pounds of comb is about the average in 

 sales during the past month. So active is 

 the demand in extracted that the price has 

 advanced on all grades ic or about per 

 pound. The best grades of white clover are 

 now commandingioc per pound, and it looks 

 as though all of it was going to go into con- 

 sumption before the coming of another 

 crop. Various reasons have been assigned 

 for the unusual consumption of extracted 

 vs. comb. One we fretjuently hear is that it 

 is taking the place of butter and preserves 

 as children are now getting honey on their 

 bread instead of jam. 



Beeswax sells at from 2«@3oc per pound 

 for the ordinary grades, and if free from 

 sediment and bright in color, 32c per pound. 

 R. A Burnett &. Co. 



Kansas City. Mo., Dec. 18. — The honey 

 market is slow, about $285 being the top 

 price for fancy white comb honey down to 

 $2.50 for No 2 On account of the raise in 

 the local freight rates, the consumption of 

 honey lias been curtailed considerably, but 

 we understand that the railroads will adjust 

 these rates after the first of the year and 

 we believe there will then be a better de- 

 mand for comb honey. Extracted is firm at 

 7>^®pc a pound, and No. i beeswax is selling 

 at 25c a pound. 



C. C. Clemons Produce Company. 



Chicago Dec. nj.— The honey market is 

 very quiet and we are very much surprised 

 for the reason that it is the cheapest com- 

 modity on the market. We have over two 

 carloads of comb honey on hand. We have 

 already sold three carloads up to date, but 

 it looks as though we are going to have a 

 better demand after the first of the year. We 

 are selling 24 section cases for $2 75 to $3,00. 

 extra heavy weights glass fronts $3.25. Ex- 

 tracted honey is in light supply and the de- 

 mand is very active, selling ggiioc. 



Beeswax ranges from 27@32C. according to 

 quality and brightness. We are advertising 

 the honey liberally in the different ways in 

 order to create a bigger demand. Let us all 

 work as best we can. D. J. Coyne. 



Denver. Colo.. Dec. 18.— The demand for 

 comb honey in carload lots is light, but we 

 have never seen such an active demand for 

 extracted as of late, as there is practically 

 no stock left in the producers' hands 

 throughout the Rocky Mountain region.
