^KW York. ^Ho7ie{/.— For tiie past iew weeks the 

 demand for honey hits slackened off to some extent, 

 as it generally does at this time of the year. In or- 

 der to make sales now, we are obliged to shade 

 |)rice8 slightly. About the middle of Jantlary we 

 expect the demand to bte more active again, at flrm- 

 er prices. P. G. Strohmeyer & Co., 



Jan. 9. 1^3 Water St., N. Y. 



Cincinnati.— ffo/iej/.— There is a slow demand 

 i'or cdmb honey, with a large supply of thfe best we 

 ever Saw. . Commission houses are well supplied. 

 It brings i6@20c in the jobbing way. Demand is 

 fair for extracted honey in square glass jars. Scar- 

 city for the past few months, and the advance, has 

 Checked somewhat the demand from manufactur- 

 ers for dark honey, which I hope is temporary only. 

 It brings 4@,9e on arrival. Beeswax.— There is a 

 fair demand, which brings 20@22c on arrival for 

 good to choice yellow. Chas. F. Muth & Son,

Columbus. — Honej/.^Market is Quiet. I quote 

 the following prices: Choice white, 18@20c; 1-lb. 

 sections, dark, 14@.1.5; extracted, 10@12; Beeswax, 20 

 @22. Our stock of honey is very light here at pres- 

 ent, but I think the prices will have to come down 

 to 16 or 17 cts., which I think would create a better 

 demand. Earle Clickenger, 



Jan. 9. 117 South 4th St., Columbus, Ohio. 



Milwaukee.— Honey. —Market quotations on hon- 

 ey unchanged from last report. However the de-

 two accounts. 

 One is the in- 

 variable accu- 

 racy of the

 The other, the 

 very low per-
