HONEY AND BEESWAX 



ii.\kki';t uruTATioNs 





Chicago, Dec. 7.— At this season of the year 

 there is noi much trade in honey, retailers hav- 

 ing- laid in their stock for the holidays. Fancy 

 comb honey for the Christmas trade has 

 brought IS'-ic; No. 1 grades, 12^@l3c; amber, 

 ■^tSJIoc. Extracted while, brmus 6fo/7c; amber, 

 5®^c. All extracted honey is sold on its Havor, 

 quality, kind and style of packag^e. Beeswax, 

 2«@30c. R. A. Burnett & Co. 



Philadelphia, Dec. 10.— Larg^e lots of comb 

 honey being offered from States that were not 

 supposed to ha're much Srtock. Bee-men, as 

 usual, wake up now to the tact that they want 

 to sell their comb honey and push it on the 

 market, thus breaking tbe price. If they would 

 only offer their honey in September, they would 

 g-et more for it and it would be belter for the 

 producer and dealer. We quote fancy white, 

 14(g^Uic; No. 1, 12(a*l4c; buckwheat, 12c. Fancy 

 extracted, Mc; amber, 6tgt7c. We are producers 

 of honey, and do not handle on commission. 

 Wm. a. Selser. 



Albany, N. Y., Dec. 15.— Market very dull, 

 and lower since the cold weather. (Quotations 

 have to be shaded, and concessions made to ef- 

 fect any quantity sales. H. R. Wright. 



Cincinnati, Nov. 2*^.— The demand for comb 

 honey is slower now than it was six weeks ag'o, 

 owing to the enormous quantities offered on all 

 sides. Fancy comb is sold in single case lots 

 at 14c. The supply of extracted honey is big-, 

 althoug-h the demand is good. We are selling" 

 amber extracted in barrels at S^^f-^oj^c. White 

 clover, in barrels and cans, 7i^@Hj4c, according 

 to quality. Beeswax, 3i)c. 



The Fred W. Muth Co. 



Buffalo, N. Y., Oct. 11.— The demand for 

 white comb honey is better than it was. The 

 trade is particular and wants only very white, 

 clean stock. If the wax is yellow from travel- 

 stain it does not sell well, and price has to be 

 cut. Fancy whi e comb, 14@15c; A No. 1, 13K 

 @14c; No. 1, 13@l3Mc; No. 2, 12@12Hc; No. 3, 

 ll(ajl2c; No. 1 dark comb, ll@12c; No. 2, 10@Uc. 

 White extracted, 6HfS7c; amber, 66£S63^c; dark, 

 V^i^siiC. Beeswax, 2S@30c. 



W. C. TOWNSEND. 



Boston, Dec. 21.— The demand for honey con- 

 tinues good, with an ample supply of comb, and 

 a lig-ht supply of extracted. We quote our 

 market as follows: Fancy white comb. 16@17c; 

 No. 1. 14@lSc; and practically no No. 2 to offer. 

 Extracted, 7@sc. as to quality, 



Blake, Scott & Lbb. 



Kansas City, -Dec. IS —Since our last quota- 

 tions there have been two cars of western comb 

 honey put on our market, and same is being- 

 sold [w'ithout any g-ood reason.) at prices not 

 justified by market conditions. Fancy white 

 comb, 24-section cases, $2.65; No. 1, $2.50; No. 2, 

 $2.40 .Extracted, white, per lb., 7@75^c; amber, 

 6^b5ic. Beeswax, 25(a^30c. 



C. C. Clemons & Co. 



Cincinnati, Dec. 18.— The market on comb 

 honey has weakened, as the supply has been 

 larger than the demand. Fancy water-white 

 14c; off grades, lower. Extracted, amber, in 

 barrels, 5M@5>ic; in 60.1b. cans. Kc more; al- 

 falfa, water-white, 6(a'6Hc; fancy white clover, 

 7@i8c. Beeswax, good demand; 30c for nice, 

 C. H. W.Weber. 



New York, Dec. 4.— Comb honey is arriving^ 

 in sufficient quantities to supply the demand, 

 and, as to the quality, most of the white houej 

 seems to be off color, more or less. We quote 

 fancy white at 14c; No. 1 at 13c; amber, ll@l2c; 

 and buckwheat, 10c. Extracted, light amber, 

 at 6c; white. bWc; Southern. S5@6Dc per gallon; 

 buckwheat, 5^c. Beeswax, 28@29c. 



HiLDRETH & SbGELKEN. 



San Francisco, Oct. 21.— White comb, 1-lb. 

 frames, 13@14 cents; amber, 9(g;llc. Extracted, 

 white, 5KCa6%c; light amber, 5(g)5Hc; amber, 

 4M@Sc; dark amber, 4@4!^c. Beeswax, good 

 to choice, light, 27)^@2^c; dark, 2S@26c. 



Market is more quiet than for several weeks 

 preceding, but is fairly steady as to value. 

 Spot stocks and offerings of both comb and ex- 

 tracted are mainly of amber grades, while most 

 urgent inquiry is principally for water-white, 

 the latter being the onlv kind meeting with 

 much competitive bidding from buyer:. Re- 

 cent arrivals of honey included a lot of 121 

 cases from the Hawaiian Islands. The bees of 

 the Islands feed mainly on sugar.
