 MARKET QUOTATIONS 



Chicaoo, Not. 7.— Prices remain steady, but 

 the demand 1b small. We are nut Mellinif the 

 quantity that we have done ordinarily at this

 checked the trade, in additirtn to which retail* 

 erH have t;ot the impreHsion that honey is teo\og 

 to be very scarce, and they are not puftbinjif its 

 sale. Fancy white comb brintfs 15/a-lf,c, with 

 travel-Btained frum one to twu cents per ponad 

 less; amber honey brings 12'>^l3c, according to 

 style and kind of package. There is very little 

 call for the dark amber and buckwheat ffrades. 

 Kxtracted white sells atTf^.-^c; dark and ambers, 

 (iCq>7c; Southern is slow at about 5^c. Beeswax 

 sells upon arrival at 30c per pound.

Cincinnati, Oct. 27. — The demand for comb 

 honey is good and prices are a little better, as 

 the supply does not meet the wants. Extra 

 water-white fancy is selling as high as 16@17c; 

 other grades less, according to quality. Ex-
