Chicago, Feb. 20 —Honey-business is not too 

 brisk and consequently prices are none too firm. 

 A good deal of pressure is being made by pro- 

 ducers as well as dealers upon their correspond- 

 ents to move consignments. Fancy grades of 

 white comb bring 12H@13c; No. 1, about 12c, 

 with some desirable at lie. Extracted, 6@7c for 

 white, S%@6%c for amber, the price being gov- 

 erned by quality, flavor and package. Beeswax, 

 30c, if clean and of good color. 



R. A. Burnett & Co. 



Boston, Feb. Zi — On account of the very 

 light demand, stocks of comb honey continne 

 to accumulate, causing a weaker market. 

 Fancy white, ISc; No. 1, 14c. Extracted, 6@8c, 

 according to quality. Blake, Scott & Lbb. 



Kansas Citt, Feb, 25.— The honey market is 

 still very lax, with scarcely anv movement at 

 all; the best white comb stock, 24 section caseF, 

 is selling here at $2.25 per case. Extracted 

 moving all the way from 45^@6^cper pound, 

 according to quality. We look for an improve- 

 ment. Beeswax in good demand at 28c. 



C. C. Clbmons & Co. 



Cincinnati, C, Feb. 20 —The comb honey 

 market has been a drag the last month; this 

 caused the holders to offer extra inducements 

 in prices. Quotations obtained are as follows: 

 No. 1 fancy water-white comb, 12@13c; No. 2, 

 10!<@115<c. Extracted: white clover in barrels, 

 6iic: in cans, THiWS cents; amber, in barrels, 

 5%®S>ic; in cans,ti@6tc. Beeswax, 27c. 



C. H. W. Weber 



Philadelphia, Feb. 20.— On account of the 

 very bad weather the sales among the retail 

 trade in honey have been slow. Quite a good 

 many shipments have b*en arriving from dis- 

 tant points and liie market at the present time 

 is overstocked. Weqnote: Fancy white comb, 

 15fi!'16c; No. 1, 13«S14c; amher, 12c. Extracted, 

 white, 654@7c: amber, 6c. Beeswax, 27c. 



We are producers of honey and do not handle 

 on commission. Wm. A. Selser. 



Cincinnati, Feb. 17. — The demand for hrney 

 at the present time is like business— frozen. 

 Nevertheless, we are looking forward to a 

 brighter future. We quote amber extracted 

 honey in barrels and cans at 6"i6>tc, respect- 

 ively; white clover at 7@8c. 



The conditions of the comb honey market are 

 aught but eac'uraging, owing to the vast 

 amount of We-^tern comb honey that is being 

 consigned at ait.iost any price. We quote fancy 

 white at 12@13c, with but few sales. Beeswax, 

 27c. ThePrbd W.Mdth Co. 



Albany, N.Y Feb. 8.— Honey market dull 

 this extreme co'.d weather, especially comb. 



which candies or granulates and cracks easily. 

 We quote: Fancy white, 13@l4c: No. 1, 12®13c; 

 mixed, lOiL' lie; buckwheat, 10@llc. Extracted, 

 better demand: Buckwheat, 6@6j^c; white, 

 6@6>^c. Buckwheat most in demand, as the 

 Jewish people will have no other. Beeswax, 

 30®32c. U. R. Wright. 



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

 sections, 11@12 cents; amber, 8 -10c Extracted, 

 white, 6®6% cents; light amber, 4X@55ic; am- 

 ber, 3Ji@4Kc; dark amber, 3@3)ic. Beeswax, 

 good to choice, light, 29@30c; dark, 27(a28c. 



Not much inquiry, either for shipment or on 

 local account. Market shows in the miin an 

 easy tone, especially for comb and the ordinary 

 grades of extracted. Supplies of uncandied 

 water-white extracted are not heavy, and for 

 this description tolerably firm figures are being 

 realized in a limited way, mainly on local ac- 

 count. 



New York, Feb. 8.— The market is decidedly 

 dull on comb honey and very little moving, 

 with plentiful supply. We quote: Fancy white 

 comb, 14c; No. 1, 13c; amher, lie; dark, 9@10c. 

 Extracted honey is in fair demand, and prices 

 remain about the same. Beeswax steady and 

 in good demand, 29c. Uildrbth & Seoelken.
