 boney. and Ibe offering's alco limited. Prices 

 "Without change Irom late quutatlons. Cali- 

 fornia extracted sells well ana the (■locks 

 here are light. Weather now warm and pros- 

 pects genera ly reported good In toe sur- 

 roundlner States. Beeswax scarce, and il to 

 .too is bid for it. K. A. Burnett & Co. 



Kansas City, May 19.— The supply of 1807 

 <?omlj and extracted honey Is about all sold. 

 Considerable inquiry for new comb Some- 

 thing fancy would bring a good price.

 all kinds ot honey, especially comb. Prices 

 Tor best white comb honej'. 10 to 13 cents. 

 Extracted honey brings 3i4 to 6c. according to

 No. 1, y to 10c. ; No. 2. no sale. Extracted, 

 white, 6®7c.; light amber, o®Gc. Beeswax is 

 in very light supply, and It pure would readily 

 bring STc. 



There is nothing tiew to note In our market 

 for Inney. As usual at this time of year, the 

 demand has dropt to almost nothing, but as 

 the supply is light, prices are well maintained 

 and firm. Blake, Scott & Lee. j

The French bark Alice, sailing Sunday for 

 London, carried 135 cases of extracted honey. 

 This will probably be the Ust shipment to 

 Europe for some time. Stocks of exiracted

 supply. Values throughout are being well 

 sustained:

 lower and now quoted at lie. No. 1, 9(ai0u; 

 fancy dark, TQSc: No. 1 dark. 6@7c. Ex- 

 tracted, white, acauc; dark. 4@5c. Beeswax 

 27(a28c. 



There are no changes In quotations, and 

 very little desirable honey left, .-ales are so 

 slow that it Is difficult to quote. The poor lots 

 are being pusht at what they will bring. 



M. H. Hunt.

 encouraging. Fa.ncy white clover comb is 

 selling here now at 10H@llHc. Not advisa- 

 ble to ship darker than amber. Extrac-

 10c. Extracted, white. 5 to 6c. Beeswax, 3,5 

 to 27c. Market appears to be well supplied 

 iind sales are rather slow for this time of the 

 year. This is especially true of the amber

 in good demand. Walter S. PonDER.

The demand for honey continues very good 

 Indeed, and values lalrly sustained. While the 

 best grades are most salable, the inferior 

 grades meet attention, and the movements 

 are quite satisfactory, A. V. Bishop & Co. 



Buffalo, May 21. — There Is a very good 

 demand for strictly fancy 1-pound comb, at 

 10 to He; other grades, however, range from 



9 to 7c., and even 6c. when poor enough. 

 Quite an amount ot honey can be sold at this 

 range. Extracted ranges from 4 to 6c., with 

 a moderate demand. Batterson & Co.
