CHIC.XGO — Honey has sold well during the 

 first half of December, but stocks are still 

 heavy and prices are being made at less than 

 quotations herein given by people who do not 

 make a specialty of honey. Hence, it is dif- 

 ficult to give exact figures. No. 1 white comb 

 honey ranges from 15c to 16c per lb., with the 

 fancy bringing 17c per lb. No. 2 white from 

 10c to 14c per lb. No. 1 to fancy amber 13c 

 to 15c per lb. Dark grades of comb and lots 

 out of condition sell at from 8c to 10c per lb. 

 Extracted honey: In new cans and cases, white 

 clover and linden brings 9c to 10c per lb. 

 Other grades of white honey about Sc per lb., 

 with amber grades ranging from 7c to Sc per 

 lb. Beeswax steady at from 30c to 32c per

 Dec. 18. C. C. CLEMONS PRODUCE CO. 



CINCINNATI — There is a big supply of 

 both comb and extracted honej', and the sales 

 are slower than they have been for some time 

 back. This is quite natural, for Christmas 

 candies and nuts have the attention of the 

 buying public at this time of the year. We 

 are selling fancy comb honey at $3.75 to $4.00 

 a case; and our best grades of extracted honey 

 in 60-lb. cans at from 8J/2C to 10c a lb., and 

 amber extracted honey in barrels at 654c to Sc 

 a lb., according to the quantity and quality 

 purchased. For choice bright yellow beeswax 

 we are paying 28c a lb., delivered here.

NEW YORK CITY— Comb honey is getting 

 well cleaned up and prices are very firm on all 

 grades. While some small shipments are com- 

 ing along as yet, the bulk of the crop has been 

 marketed and from now on. receipts will be 

 next to nothing. We quote fancy white at 

 16c, No. 1 white at 15c. No. 2 white at 13c 

 and 14c, dark and mixed at 12c per pound. 

 The market is easy on extracted honey and 

 prices are gradually declining, especially so on 

 Porto Rican and other West Indian honey. 

 Receipts of new crop have been quite large 

 recently and will probably continue so for sev- 

 eral months to come. The demand is very 

 light, hence the decline in prices. We quote 

 West Indian at 75c per gallon, white clover at 

 8;/2C to 9c per pound, California light amber 

 sage at 9c to 954c, buckwheat at Sc per pound. 

 Dec. 20. HILDRETH & SEGELKEN.

 bing way at the following figures: Strictly
