Kansas City.— The demand for both comb and ex- 

 tracted honey is not heavy: receipts not large. We 

 quote No. 1 white comb, 24-section cases, S3.50 per 

 case; No. 2 white and amber ditto, $3.25 per case; white 

 extracted, per pound, 7 to "Vz. Beeswax, 25 to 28. 



Dec. 6. C. C. Clemons Produce Go. 



St. Louis.— Since ours of Nov. 4, the honey market 

 has been slow, and the following quotations are more 

 or less nominal. The supply is ample for the small 

 demand. We quote: Fancy white comb honey, 17; 

 choice amber, 14 to 15; dark or granulated, nominal at 

 8 to 10. Broken or leaking honey sells at much less. 

 Extracted white from Colorado and the Pacific coast, 

 in 5-gallon cans, 8 to 9; amber at 7;'2 to 8; Southern, 

 choice amber color, in barrels. 6^ to 7; in cans, 7}2. 

 Beeswax, 30 for choice pure; all impure and inferior, 

 less. R. Hartmann Produce Co. 



Dec. 6. 



Chicago.— There has been a steady demand for good 

 comb honey up to this time. The A No. 1 to fancy is 

 jobbing at 16 cts., with off grades from 1 to 3 cts. less; 

 very little demand for amber grades or dark honey. 

 Extracted has sold well at from 7 to 8 for white, and 6 

 to 7 for amber, according to flavor, quality, and style 

 of package. Beeswax is in good demand at 30 to 32. 



Dec. 6. R. A. Burnett & Co. 



Zanesville.— As is usually the case immediately 

 preceding the holidays, the demand for honey is ex- 

 ceedingly slack. Producers should receive from the 

 jobbing trade 14 to 15 cts. for No. 1 to fancy white-clo- 

 ver comb, and for best extracted in five-gallon cans, 

 8 to 8^2, delivered, wholesale prices ruling 2 to 2% 

 higher on comb and 1 to 1% on extracted. Producers 

 are offered for clean yellow beeswax 28 cash, 30 in ex- 

 change for bee supplies. EDMUND W. Peirce.
