 buckwheat and dark, 7(((8c. Extracted, white, 

 7<a'.Sc; amber, of"'7c; dark amber, 5((t6c. Bees- 

 wax, Iltic. 



Slocks of white comb honey are about ex- 

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

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

 from the season of 1899. R. A. Burnett & Co. 



Detroit, April 10.— Fancy white. 12c; No. 1, 

 lOCrtllc; dark and amber, Sfc 9c. Extracted in 

 fair demand without chanpe in price. Beeswax, 



Decreasiny- demand and the attempt to crowd 

 sales have forced down prices on comb honey. 

 M. H. Hunt. 



New York, March 8.— Fancv white,12c; No.l 

 white,10@llc; amber, 9c; buckwheat and dark, 

 O&lc. Comb honey is pretty well cleaned up 

 now and we expect to dispose of the balance of 

 our stock during- this month. Excepting- Cali- 

 fornia there is not much stock of extracted on 

 our market. Demand is fair at unchang-ed quo- 

 tations. Beeswax, 27(<p2Sc. 



Hildreth Bros. & Segelken.

 lOJ-^c; amber, 7'2(S!'9c. Extracted, white, 7H@ 

 7Jic; li^ht amber, 6:'^(m7c. Beeswax, 26'2(^27c. 



Beyond a small jobbing- trade, mainly out of 

 supplies in second hands, there is nothing- to 

 record in the way of business. There are only 

 moderate supplies, and these are mainly comb. 

 Values are steady. It is too early to g-et'definite 

 information concerning- coming- crop, but it is 

 not likely to prove larg-e in this State. 



Boston, April 1.— Fancy white, 13c; A No. 1, 

 12((yl2^c; No. 1, iltol2c; No. 2, 9(aH0c; demand

 white, 7c; amber, 6c; buckwheat, 5c. 



A. B. Williams & Co. 



Buffalo, April 1.— Little or no strictly fancy 

 one-pound comb honey here. It would sell 

 well at about ll<fil2c. Few lots of common, 

 dark, etc., arriving-, and sell at 7f<['8c mostly; 

 some very poor at 6c. There is no extracted 

 here; worth from 4Hf«'-5J^c; extra fancy, 6c.

Batterson & Co, 



Omaha, April 1.— Fancy white quotable at 

 13tol3'/2c; choice, 12®l2%c. Extracted, (jijc. 



Quotations are practically nominal, as there 

 is no stock left now in receivers h'ands, and 

 dealers have also but very little left. There will 

 not be a pound of an.y kind of honey carried over 

 in this market. Peycke Bros. 



Milwaukee, March 2.— Fancy 1-lb. sections, 

 13(SJl4c; A No. 1, 12(gl25^c; No. 1, ll(al2c; dark

 kegs, white, ~<a>7l4c; dark, 5^<qi(,^c, Beeswax, 

 2S(n*27c. 



Since our last report we have had a very good 

 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.
