Toledo. — The niirket on comb honey at this season of the 

 year is rather qoiet: and owing to the good demand that we have 

 had for the last two or three months dealers seem to be well filled 

 up, and do not wish to add to their stock until aft<r the first of the 

 year. We are quoting strictly fancy white-clover comb honey at 

 15 to 15^; No. 1, 1454 to 15. We have no No 2 to ofTer, but it 

 would bring, perhaps. 54 ct. per lb. less. Extracted white-clover 

 hon»y would bring 754 to 8 in small lots. California I'ght am- 

 ber, bl4 to 7 in small lots. Good yellow beeswax is bringing 28 

 to 30 in trade. The abuve are our selling prices, and not what 

 we pay. The Griggs & Nichols Co.,

New York. — The ma'ket is pretty well stocked wrth comb 

 hooey; but the demand for clover comb honey is very slow and 

 ansatisfaciory, presumably on account of the scarcity of money, 

 which has not as yet adjusted itself since the financial trouble of 

 last fall. Extracted honey has been in better demand up to 

 about three weeks ago for manufacturing purposes, but is now 

 slow, with stock fairly well cleaned up. Buckwheat, comb and 

 extracted, is not as plentiful as clover, with demand f,iir and 

 Slock diminished. California is not very plenlifiil, particularly 

 white. Considerable Southe n honey is rfTered. We quote ex- 

 tracted clover at 754 to 8; amber ditto, 65* to 7; buckwheat, 654 

 to 7; fancy while comb honey, 13 to 15; No. 1 ditto, 12 to 14; 

 No 2 ditto, 10 to 12; buckwheat, 9 to 12. Beeswax, 28 to 31.
