GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



1415 



Dbtroit.— Honey continues to be scarce, and prices 

 are much the same. There seems to be no Michigan 

 extracted, and prices quoted are for the California 

 extracted. The feeling seems to be among commis- 

 sion men that the bee-lieepers are holding for a high 

 price, and will have to let it go later cheaper. No. 1 

 and A No. 1 white comb honey, 20c; No. 3, 15 to 18. 

 Extracted, S to 8^. Beeswax, 27 to 29. 



M. H. HUNT & Son,

Buffalo.— The demand for honey is slow. Not 

 very much good honey arriving. Prices are held 

 firm for all first quality. There ought to be a better 

 demand soon, for fruit is pretty well gone, and 

 Thanksgiving near at hand, so we look for a good de- 

 mand. No. 1, fancy white clover, comb. 17 to 18; No. 

 2, 12 to 14: No. 1, buckwheat, 11 to 12%. No. 2, 10 to 11. 

 White clover, extracted. 8 to 9; amber, 7 to 8; dark, 

 6i4 to 7. Beeswax, 30 to 32. W. C. Town.sbnd, 



Nov. 11. Buffalo, N. Y. 



Boston.— Our market on honey is very strong 

 ranging from 16 to I8c for No. 1, with, comparatively 

 speaking, light supplies, and a good demand. Ex- 

 tracted honey also very light supply, brings 8c per lb.
