 a number of old copies of the American

 is, one or two months' numbers without a 

 break, but will mail you as many single or 

 odd copies as you may wish, upon receipt

 in them. They will be fine reading for the 

 long winter evenings, and many a single

 sample order. Only a cent a copy, hack of

Honey & Beeswax Market Quotations. 



CHICAGO. III.. Dee. 27.— Up to the present 

 the sales on honey have met with our expec- 

 tations. We have received considerably more 

 honey than we figured on handling, owing to 

 the short crop report, and we think the early 

 shippers reaped the benefit. However, we are 

 now getting the average price, viz.: Fancy. 

 15c. ; white. No. 1. 14@13c. Extracted. 6@7c. 



Beeswax, 28@29c. J. A. L. 



CHICAGO, 111., Jan. 3.-As usual, the vol- 

 ume of trade in honey is small at this season. 

 Butour stock is not heavy, and soon as this 

 month is past we expect a demand that will 

 clean out all present and prospective offer- 

 ings. Comb sells at 14c. for good white; fan- 

 cy brings 15c.: dark grades, 8® 12c. Extracted 

 white. 6@"c.; dark, 5@6c. 



Beeswax, 27@28o. R. A. B. & Co. 



NEW YORK, N. Y.. Dec. 20.— The market 

 for comb and extracted lioney is good, and 

 the supply equals the demand. Fancy clover 

 and buckwheat sells best; off grades are not 

 quite as salable ; and 2-pound sections are little 

 called for. We quote as follows: 1-pound 

 fancy clover. i:!@14c.; 2-pound. 12H@13c.; 1- 

 pound white. 12@12^c.; 2-pound. 12c.; l- 

 pound fair, lOiailc; 2-pound, lOOllc; 1- 

 pound buckwheat, 10@llc. ; 2-pound. 9@10c. 

 Extracted, clover and basswood. G(a6!4c. ; 

 buckwheat, 5@5!4c.; Southern. 50@60c. per 

 gallon. Beeswax, scarce and in good demand 

 at29@30c, C. I.&B. 



CINCINNATI. O.. Jan. 7. — Demand for 

 honey is very quiet since the holidays, and 

 prices are unchanged. Comb honey brings 

 14@16c. for best white, and extracted 4@7c. 



Beeswax is in good demand at 23@28c. for 

 good to choice yellow. C. F. M. & S. 



KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 7.— The dercaad 

 for both comb and extracted is light. Supply 

 good. We quote; No. 1 white comb. 1-Ihs.. 

 14@15c. : No. 2 white. 12@13c. ; No. 1 amber. 

 13c.; No. 2 amber. 10@llc. Extracted, white. 

 6@6',4c.; anihe_r. 5@5V4c. ; dark. 4^c.

BUFFALO. N. Y.. Dec. 17.— The demand for 

 honey Is very qjiet. Wequote; Fanov. 13® 

 14c.; choice. ll@12c.; others from S@10c. 

 Literal amount of stock in market. The pros- 

 pects are that the demand will be very light 

 until after the holidays. Extracted is moving 

 very slowly at 5@7c. B. & Co. 



NEW YORK. N. Y.. Dec. 31 —The demand 

 for comb honey has been very light of late 

 and has now almost dwindled down to 

 nothing. The supply has been accumulating 

 and there is a large stock on the market. In 

 order to move it in round lots, it will be nec- 

 essary to make liberal concessions from rul- 

 ing quotations. We quote: Fancy white, 1- 

 Ibs.. 13c.: off grades, lie; buckwheat, 9c. 

 We have nothing new to report in extracted. 

 It is moving off slow and plenty of stock on 

 the market, with more arriving. Beeswax is 

 steady and finds ready sale on arrival at 30c. 

 per pound. H. B. & S.

<iiood lloney-fi^ellers ought to be 

 needed now, and the little 33-page pamph- 

 let, "Honey as Food and Medicine," has 

 for years proven itself valuable in making 

 repeated sales of honey. Its distribution 

 will cmilc a drnmnd for the honey first, and 

 then the bee-keeper can follow it up and 

 supply that demand. Send to us for a 

 sample copy, only .5 cents ; 10 copies, post- 

 paid, 35 cents; SOcopies, $1.2.5; or 100 copies 

 $2.00. Try 50 or 100 copies, and prove their 

 ability to aid you in disposing of your 

 honey at a good price.
