Kansas City, Mo., Feb. 13.— We be- 

 lieve the demand for honey will begin 

 to increase from now on, but do not 

 think prices will go any higher. The 

 supply is large, with fairly good de-

 7c. Beeswax, 30c. — C. C. demons &

New York, Feb. 13. — Some producers 

 hold back their honey too long. In 

 the fall the demand was good at good 

 prices; now concessions have to be 

 made to move it. The supply is quite 

 large for this time of year. The de- 

 mand is rather slow for all kinds. We 

 quote our market today as follows: 

 White comb, 12 to 14c.; dark, 9 to lie; 

 extracted: white, 6 to 6 1-2; dark, 5 

 to 5 l-2c. Beeswax, 28 to 29c.— Hil- 

 dreth & Segelken. 



Albany, N. Y., Feb. 18.— The unpre- 

 cedented cold winter has made the de-

 5 to 7c. Beeswax, 28 to 30c.— H. R.

Denver, Feb. l3.^The supply of 

 honey in fancy grade is small, though 

 plentiful in No. 2 and off grades. The 

 demand is better than last month. The 

 probabilities are that stock will all be 

 cleared up before the new crop ar- 

 rives. We quote our market as fol- 

 lows: No. 1 comb, white, per case of 



Chicago, Feb. 8. — The demand is bet- 

 ter for all grades of honey than at any
