Chicago. — During the past few days there has 

 been more movement in honey tlian for some weeks 

 past, which, of course, is usual at this time of the

 white comb honey are selling at about 15 cts. per 

 lb., with the amber and off colors at from 1 to 3 cts. 

 per lb. less; extracted white, 7 to 8, according to 

 the kind and quality. Amber grades range at from 

 6 to 7. Beeswax is steady at 30.

Denver, Feb. 19. F. Rauchfuss, Mgr. 



St. Louis. — The demand for both comb and ex- 

 tracted honey in this market is still very light, and 

 stocks quite large for this time of the year. We are 

 still quoting light amber comb honey, in 24-section 

 cases, at $3.25 to $3.50. Amber from $2.50 to 

 $3.00; extracted honey in 60-lb. cans, from 5 to 

 SVz ; Southern amber extracted in barrels, 5 to 5%, 

 according to quality. Beeswax is firm at 28 V^ for 

 pure ; impure and inferior, less. 



St. Louis, Feb. 18. R. Hartmann Produce Co. 



Albany and Schenectady. — Lower prices have 

 stimulated the demand for honey, and it looks now 

 as tho the market will be well cleaned up, and no 

 stock to carry over. In fact, there is a scarcity 

 already of buckwheat, both in comb and extracted; 

 this will help out on clovr. We quote fancy white 

 at 13 to 15; mtdium grades, 10 to 12; buckwheat, 

 12 to 13; extracted, light, 7 to 8 ; amber, 6 to 7 ; 

 buckwheat, 61/2 to 7. Chas. MacCulloch. 



Albany and Schenectady, Feb. 18. 



Zanesville. — There is little change to report 

 since last quotations. For the season the demand 

 is about normal and price about stationary. Better 

 grades of white comb go to the retail grocery trade 

 at $4.00 a case with some concession on quantity or- 

 ders. Best white extracted, 9 to 11, according to 

 quantity. Twenty-eight cents cash, 30 in trade, is 

 paid producers for beeswax, selling prices being 

 largely arbitrary, and varying with quantity.
