Honey Markets, continued from page 2. 



Chicago. — There are some sales effected in comb 

 honey right along, but mostly to small buyers who 

 are Inclined to buy only from hand to mouth, and 

 we do not look for much business in the honey line 

 after May 1. Extracted honey is moving more free- 

 ly, but trade on this commodity is not what it was 

 a year ago. We still have some very fancy Utah 

 water-white alfalfa extracted honey in stock: also 

 fancy Southern California light-ainlier extracted 

 in 60-lb. cans Write for prices when in the mar- 

 ket, stating quantity desired. We quote fancy and 

 No. 1 white and light-amber Western alfalfa comli 

 honey, packed in24-section doul>le-'deck cases, glass 

 fronts, 16; second quality, same as above, 83.00 per 

 case. No. 1 white Wisconsin clover comb honey, 

 packed in 24-section flat cases, glass fronts, brings 

 16 to 17; choice quality and light-amber Wisconsin, 

 same as above, 14 to 15. Medium amber and other 

 inferior grades bring from 2 to 3 cts. per lb. less 

 than the above prices. Bright pure beeswax is
