 January 21st, 1892 : 



CHICAGO, III,.— Tliere are occasional sales 

 of best grades of comb honey, but the retail- 

 ers are not yet sold out on supply laid in 

 before the holidays. Prices are a little easier, 

 especially on that which will not grade " fan- 

 cy—such brings 17@18c., and other grades 

 12@16c. Extracted, 6@9c., as to quality. 



Beeswax— 2 2@2 5c. R. A. B. & Co. 



CHICAGO, III.— Fancy stock is very scarce, 

 with plenty of inquiry, with good prices of- 

 fered for same. It sells readily at 18c.; No. 1 

 comb, 16@17c. Dark sells slow. White ex- 

 tracted. fair supply, with good demand at 8i-4 ; 

 dark, 6@7c. Beeswax— 23@25c. J. A. L. 



CINCINNATI, Ohio.— Demand from manu- 

 facturers, for extracted honey, was slow tor 

 the last few weeks, while there was, and is 

 still, a fair demand from consumers for family 

 use. There is no choice comb honey in the 

 market. Best white comb brings 14@16c. 

 Extracted honey brings 6@8c. 



Beeswax— Demand fair, at 23@25c. for good 

 to choice yellow. Supply good. C. F. M. & S. 



NEW YORK, N. T.— Demand for comb hon- 

 ey is very light, White fancy stock is well 

 cleaned up. The market is well stocked with 

 off grades and buckwheat, and prices are ir-

 stocks are light. We quote; Basswood and 

 white clover, 8@8'/ic. ; buckwheat, 6@6}4c.;

 lected at 22@23c. S., L. & S. 



BOSTON, Mass.— Comb honey is selling 

 slow, very much slower than we like to have 

 it, and it is our experience that when we start 

 honey in at a high price, it sells hard right 

 through the season. We quote our market

 1-lb. combs. Extracted, 8@9c.
