MARKET QUOTATIONS. 



Chicago, April IS.— Best prrades of white, 13c; 

 off in color, etc.. ll'fl'12c; lig"ht amber, luiaHc: 

 dark amber and mixt buckwheat, 7f(j*9c. Ex- 

 tracted, clover, 8c: other errades of white, luj) 

 7J2C; ambers and dark, 6(«j7c. Beeswax, 27c. 



Sales are in a small wa.v. as the time of year 

 is with us which usually sees the close of active 

 sales. Owinytothe inclement weather which 

 has cutoff the early fruits and vegetables 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. Buhnf.tt & Co. 



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

 lOmllc; dark and amber, 8('( 9c. Extracted in 

 fair demand without chanye in price. Beeswax, 



Decreasing- demand aud the attempt to crowd 

 sales have forced down prices on comb honev. 

 M. H. Hunt. 



New York, April 19.— Fancy white, 12c; No. 1 

 white, lOfaillc;. amber, 9c: buckwheat, 7r«7J^c. 

 Extracted in jrood demand at unchang-ed prices. 

 Beeswax quiet at 27c. 



Our market is well cleaned up on comb honev. 

 There is a fair demand, especially for white. 

 HiLDRETH Bros. & Segelken. 



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

 IOV2C; amber, 7'2fi^9c. Extracted, white, 7'4(ffi 

 7^^c: light amber, 6H@7c. Beeswax, 2fi^2%2'tc7 



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 mainh- comb. 

 Values are steady. It is too early to getdefinite 

 information concerning coming- crop, but it is 

 not likely to prove larg-e in this State. 



Boston, April 18.— Fancv white, 13c; No. 1, 

 ll(«12c; A No. 1, lUto'llc; light amber, 9c. Ex- 

 tracted, stocks about cleaned up. Nominal 

 price for white. 8c; for light amber. 7c. Bees- 

 wax, very light stocks; selling- at 27r<i 2.xc. 



Naturally the demand for honey 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 beingr shaded 

 in order to work off stocks. 



Blake, Scott & Lee. 



Kansas City, April 6.— Fancy white comb 

 liouev continues in g-ood demand at 13'^^'(ol4c: 

 choice white at 12J'2i^l3c; dark, lOi^raMli^c." Ex-

 white, 7c; amber, 6c; 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(a8 cents, at which quite a large amount can be 

 sold. Extra fancy beeswax, 2N(r( 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, 7J'2C. 



Peycke Bros. 



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

 13fgil4c; A No. 1, 12@12^c; No. 1, U(ol2c: dark 

 or amber or old, 7(a40c. Extracted, in barrels or 

 kegs, while, 7('tt'75^c; dark, SK@6^c. Beeswax, 

 25(w27c. 



Since our last report we have had a very g-ood 

 market for honey, and the demand has been 

 very good for all g-rades, 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.
