 to quality. White clover extracted is 

 a drag on the market at 6 1-2 to 8 cents

 seems to be reviving at 13 1-2 to 15 

 cents for fancy. Beeswax is wanted at 

 30 cents per pound delivered here.

The rate is uniformly one cent for each 

 word each month ; no advertisement, however 

 small, will be accepted for less than twenty 

 cents, and must be paid in advance. Count 

 the words and remit with order accordingly. 



Kansas City, March 14. — Ph^e de- 

 mand for honey is somewhat limited, 

 while the supply is large. We quote 

 our market today as follows: Fancy 

 comb and No. 1 comb, .$2.25 per case; 

 choice, $2.00. Extracted, white, 6 to 

 6 1-2 cents; amber, 5 1-2 to 6 cents. 

 Beeswax, 30 cents. There is not much 

 change in the honey market, but we 

 believe the demand will pick up to a 

 certain extent soon. Would not be 

 surprised to see a good market next 

 month. C. C. Clemens & Co. 



Chicago, March 8.— It is difficult to 

 get more than 12 cents per pound for 

 any lot of white comb honey, with 

 sales chiefly at 11 cents; even at this 

 price it does not work off as fast as 

 owners wish it would. Selections in 

 the most desirable grades bring a lit- 

 tle higher price in small quantities. 

 Off grades sell at 1 to 2 cents per pound 

 less. Extracted honey plentiful and 

 slow of sale. White brings 6 to 7 

 cents; amber 5 to 6 cents according to 

 quality and style of package. Bees- 

 wax active at 30 cents per pound.

 day as follows: Comb, .$1.50 per dozen

"Today my inmost soul was stirred; 

 I saw the crocus from the ground 

 Burst, like a little flame, and heard 

 The wandering bluebird's trumpet 

 sound. 



"The heat of life is in the air. 



And recreated summer swings 



Her first faint odors here and there, 



To lure the bee's adventurous wings."
