MARKET QUOTATIONS. 



Chicago, April 18.— Best grades of white, 13c; 

 off in color, etc., Il(^il2c; li^ht amber, Kirallc; 

 dark amber and mixt buckwheat, 7(st9c. Ex- 

 tracted, clover, He; other trrades of white, 7@ 

 "%c; ambers and dark, 6(gi7c. Beeswax, 27c. V - 



Sales are in a small waj'. as the time of .year 

 is with us which usually sees the close of active 

 sales. Owin<rtothe inclement weather which 

 has cutoff the early fruits and vetiretables the 

 honey market has benefited, so that all of the 

 white comb is nearly disposed of. There is 

 quite a quantity of dark and undesirable comb 

 being- offered. R, A. Burnett A: Co. 



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

 lOff'llc; dark and amber, H(«' 9c. Extracted in 

 fair demand without change in price. Beeswax, 

 25('i^2o!4. 



Decreasintr demand and the attempt to crowd 

 sales have forced down prices on comb honev. 

 M. H. Hunt. 



New York, April 19.— Fancy white, 12c: No.l 

 white, l(.l((('llc; amber, 9c: buckwheat, KoTAc. 

 Extracted in yood demand at unchang-ed prices. 

 Beeswax quiet at 27c. 



Our market is well cleaned up on comb honey. 

 There is a fair demand, especially for white. 

 HiLDRETH Bros. &'Segelken. 



San Francisco, April 5.— White comb, 10@ 

 1054c; amber, 7'A(^''^c. Extracted, white, 'JM<^ 

 VAc\ light amber, (i}4.@.1c. Beeswax, 26'3f^27,c. 



Beyond a small jobbinfsf 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 mainlv comb. 

 Values are steady. It is too early to jyet definite 

 information concerning" coming crop, but it is 

 not likely to prove larg-e in this State. 



Boston, April IS.— Fancv white, 13c; No. 1, 

 lir«12c; A No. 1, HXaillc; light amber, 9c. Ex- 

 tracted, stocks about cleaned up. Nominal 

 price for white, Sc; for lig-ht amber, 7c. Bees- 

 wax, very light stocks; selling at 27((( 28c. 



Naturally the demand for hone^' is gradually 

 growing less, and altho stocks on hand are not 

 large, still the demand is so small that the gen- 

 eral feeling is weak and prices are being shaded 

 in order to work off stocks. 



Blake, Scott & Lee. 



Kansas City, April 6.— Fancy white comb 

 honev continues in good demand at 13U(ail4c; 

 choice whilst 125^(a''13c; dark, lOYiiwWAc. Ex- 

 tracted scarce al b%c. Peycke Bros. 



Cleveland, March 9.— Fancv white, 13f5ii4c; 

 No. 1 white, 12("'13c; A No. 1 amber, 10(a.llc; No. 

 2 amber, 9(al0c: buckwheat, 8c. E.xtracted, 

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



A. B. Williams & Co. 



Buffalo, April 21.— Our market is cleaned up^ 

 on fancy comb; more would bring about 12 cts. 

 There are more or less very poor lots selling at 

 7(rt'S cents, at which quite a large amount can be 

 sold. Extra fancy beeswax, 28(" 30c. 



Batterson & Co. 



Omaha, April 18.— There is but little stock 

 left in dealers' hands now, and realizing that no 

 further receipts can be expected until another 

 crop gets into the market, it is held firm at 14c 

 for fancy white comb. Extracted, 7^c. 



• Peycke Bros. 



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

 13(<i'14c; A No. 1, l2<^12J^c; No.l, ll(al2c; dark 

 or amber or old, 7(gH0c. Extracted, in barrels or 

 kegs, white, 7to7}^c; dark, 5^(g'6j^c. Beeswax, 

 25(aa7c. 



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 qualit.v, and the demand is good now 

 and small supply. We encourage shipments of 

 best comb. Extracted, fair demand.
