HONEY and BEESWAX 



MAKKKX <HIO'rAXI<».-%S. 



Cliicairo- 111. I Dec. 13.— Fancy white 11 to 

 12c\ No. 1, lOc; lanuy amber. 8 to 9c.; No. 1, 

 7c.; laucy dark. Tc. Extracted, white, .5 to 6c.; 

 amber. 4 to 5c. ; dark. 4c. Beeswax, 26 to 27c. 



The demand for comb honey Is not sallstac- 

 tory. and it can be bought at even lower 



E rices than quoted, where It Is not In the 

 ands of retrular de;ilers. There seems to be 

 no outside demand. Extracted without special 

 change. Beeswax Is scarce. 



Mllwankee, Wis., Deo. 13.— Fancy white, 

 12 to l.ic; No. 1, 11 to 12c.; fancy amber, 9 

 to 10c. ; fancy dark, 8 to 9c. Extracted, 

 white, 5^ to be; amber. 4^4 to 5c. Beeswax, 

 25 to 27c. 



This market has been fairly sustained on 

 honey since our last report. Values remain 

 about the same, as there has been a very good 

 consumptive demand, especially for ex- 

 tracted, while the comb honey has seemed to 

 accumulate with lucreast receipts, and wo 

 feel to meet the demand even If at a reduc- 

 tion from ciuotalions. There seems to be 

 more demand Irom those »>ho eat honey than 

 in former seasons, which is a good feature of 

 the trade which we desire to encourage. We 

 are expecting a good trade from this forward. 



Cleveland. Ohio. Dec. 15.— Fancy white. 

 12 to 12Hc.: No. 1, 11 to 12c.; No. 1 amber, 

 !l to 10c. Extracted, white, 6 to Tc. ; amber. 4 

 to 5c. Beeswax. 22 to 2oc. 



New York, W. Y., Dec. 13,— Fancy white, 

 11 to llVic; No. 1, luc; fancy amber, 9c.; 

 fancy dark, 7 to 7^4c. Extracted, white, 5 to 

 5Hc.: amber, 4 to4Jic.; dark. 4c. Beeswax. 

 2b to 27c. 



Our market remains quiet and honey Is 

 moving off rather slowly. Stocks are plenti- 

 ful and prices are on the downward tendency. 

 In order to move quantity lots quotations 

 will have to be shaded. Beeswax is in good 

 demand at quotation price. 



Minneapolis, Minn., Dec. 15, — Fancy 



while. 11 to 12c.; No. 1, 10 to lie; fancy am- 

 ber. lOc: No. 1.9!4c.; lancy dark 9 to9yjc. : 

 No. 1. 8 to 9o. Extracted, white, o to 6c.; am- 

 ber. 4 to 4iic.; dark, 4c. Beeswax, 23c. 



Market holds Arm at above prices. Good 

 demand for extracted. Wax is quiet but firm 

 at 23c. 



Kansas City, Mo,, Dec. 15.— Fancy white, 

 lOH to iic. ; No. 1. 10 to lO^ic; fancy amber, 

 9!< to lOc; No. 1 9 lo 9S4c.; fancy dark. 8S4 

 to 9c. Extracted, white, 5H to be; amber, 

 5 to 5>4c. ; dark, 4 to 4Ho. Beeswax, 20 to 22c. 



St. Iionls, Ho., Dec. 13.— Fancy white, 12 

 to 12 l-2c.; No. 1, 10 1-2 to 11 l-2c.; fancy 

 amber, 9 1-2 to 10c. ; No. 1, 9c ; fancy dark, 

 8c. Extracted, white, oto5 1-2c.: amber. 4 

 vo4Hc.; dark, 3 1-2 to 4c, Beeswax, 24 1-2 

 to 25c. 



We wonld advise prompt shipments of 

 honey. We do not see any probabilities of bet- 

 ter prices. The stock of honey Is ample for 

 the demand. 



Albany, "S. Y., Dec. 13.— Fancy white. 12 

 to 13c.; No-1, lllo 12c.; fancy amber, 8 to 

 «c. ; No. 1, 8c : fancy dark, 8c.; No. 1, IVi to 

 8c. Extracted, white, 5 to 6c. ; amber. 4H to 

 5c.; dark. 4 to ^V^c. 



There Is an ample stock of comb on hand 

 and selling freely at quotations. Extracted 

 Is not pleutliul and Iromi nformatlon received 

 there is not much in the hands of producers. 



Buffalo, N. Y., Dec. 15.— Our honey market 

 is ver> quiet, except for absolutely fancy 1- 

 pound combs, white, which is selling well at 

 mostly 12c., occasionally, lie. All other 

 grades are exceedingly dull and must be 

 pusht hard and cut severely to move; In this 

 manner some quantities can be sold. Dark 

 comb. 9 to 7c.; very poor grades, 5 to 6c. Ex- 

 tracted, fancy white, 5 to 6o. ; dark, 4 to WiC. 



Ban Francisco, Calif., Dec. 8. — White 

 comb, 1-lbs.. ~Vt to 9!4c ; amber. 4 to 6c. Ex- 

 tracted, white. 4^ to 4-1^0.; light amber. 'i% 

 to 3Xc.; daik tule. lie to 2Hc. Beeswax, 

 fair to choice, 22 to 24c. 



There Is no selling pressure of consequence 

 on desirable lots of water white, either comb 

 or extracted, such being held as a rule at full 

 quotations. Amber grades are lo greater sup- 

 ply than the demand and market for this 

 class presents an easy tone. Dark qualities 

 are in poor request, despite low asking fig- 

 ures. Beeswax is firm at current quotailons, 

 with very little offering, either from first or 

 second bands , 



FhlladelpMa, Pa., HTov. 13.— Fancy white, 

 13 to 14c. i No 1. 12c.; fancy amber. 10c. ; 

 No. 1. 9c,; No. 1 dark. 8c. Extracted, white, 

 5 to 5 Vie; amber, 5c. ; dark, 4 to 4Hc. Bees- 

 wa.T. 27c. 



Honey is arriving very freely: market Is a 

 little olV. Beeswax Is In good demand. 



Boston, Mass., Hov. 8.— Fancy white. In 

 cartons. 13c.; No. 1. 11 to 12c.; fancy amber, 

 10c. Extracted, white, 6 to7o.; amber, o to 

 5>4c. Beeswax, 280. 



No. 1 and fancy honey has sold well during 

 the past 10 days, but off grades and light 

 weight is going slowly. Beeswax is In good 

 demand and liut little here. 



Detroit, Mich., BTov. 9.- Fancy white. 11 

 to 12c.; No. 1,10 to lie; fancy amber, 9 to 

 10c. ; No. 1 , 8 to 9c. ; fancy dark, 7 to 8c. Ex- 

 tr;icted, white, 5 to 6c. ; amber, 4 to 5c. Bees- 

 wax, 25 to 26c. 



Indianapolis, Ind., Kov. 8.— Fancy white, 

 11 to 13c.; No 1. 9 to lOc; fancy amber. 9 to 

 10c. Extracted, white. 5 to 6c. Beeswax, 25c. 



Demand for fancy white comb hooey and 

 fancy white extracted is exceptionally good, 

 while there is almost no demand for dark or 

 amber comb or extracted honey. 



Cincinnati, Ohio, Dec. 7.— Demand for 

 comb honey h:is bet/n good for the last few 

 weeks and Is fair for extracted. We quote 

 the latter at 3 1-2 to 6c., and comb at 10 to 

 13c. for best white. Beeswax is In fair de- 

 mand at 20 to 25c. for good to choice yellow.

THE NEW METHOD 



In Mealtin and inisease. 



By W. E Forest. M. D.. I3th Edition, Re- 

 vised. Illustrated, and Enlarged. This is 

 the greatest and best work ever publisht 

 as a Home Physician, and as 



A 4iiiii<Ie lo Health. 



It makes the way from WeakueMM to 

 ^9(r4^ii^;lli so plain that only those who 

 are past recovery (the very few) need to 

 be sick, and the well who will follow its 

 teachings vaiiuot l>e Mick. It is now 

 in many families the only counsellor in 

 matters of health, saving the need of call- 

 ing a physician and all expenses for medi- 

 cines, as it teaches Hygiene and the use 

 o£ Nature's remedies, not a drug 

 treatment. 



All C^lironic I>iseases 



are considered, and there is not a curable 

 disease that has not been helpt by some 

 of the " i\>K> ,I/^'//iw/.s' " given here; even 

 those who have been pronounced tlon- 

 siinipllve have been entirely cured. 

 While for Riieiimatism. Iu<li;;es-

 are sure, and can be carried out at one's 

 own home and with little or no expense. 



A <jiuarantee. 



So confident are the publishers of the 

 results, that they offer to refund the 

 money to any one who will try "New 

 Methods " thoroughly, if the book is re- 

 turned in good condition. 



The ^vrw Kdition 



is illustrated with a number of Anatom- 

 ical plates from the best English work on 

 Anatomy publisht, and others made ex- 

 pressly for this work ; contains 300 pages, 

 printed on fine calendered paper, and al- 

 though the price.of the first edition (much 

 smaller in size and without illustrations) 

 was ?2.50, we sell this at $1.00, postpaid.
