 wax, 2(tc. 



Stocks of white comb honey are about ex- 

 hausted, and this is as it should be if a market 

 is to be had for the e.vpected larg-e flow of nectar 

 from the season of 18''9. R. A. Burnktt A Co. 



Detroit, March 9.— Fancy white comb scarce 

 and higher and we now quote it 13('0I4c; No. 1,

Present slim stocks admit of only a light job- 

 bing business being transacted,' with values 

 much the same as previously noted. The com- 

 ing crop is likely to be small. The bees are now 

 being fed in a large portion of Southern Cali-

 died.

 market for honey, and the demand has been 

 very good, for all grades, especially for sections 

 of the best quality, and the demand is good now 

 and small supply. We encourage shipments of 

 best comb. Extracted, fair demand.
