Dec. 28.—The market on comb honey has fallen off somewhat, only demand for fancy white selling in retail way at , to jobbers at $ to$ accordingjto quant- ity. Extra white extracted in 60-lb. cans at 10c: light amber in 60-lb. cans at 8':!C: amber in barrels. Beeswax in fair demand at $33 per hundred. The above are our selling prices, not what we are paying. C. H. W. Weber & Co. New York. Dec. 28.—Trade is rather QUiet just now. which is generally the case around the holidays. Stocks of comb honey are rather light, on account of the short crop, and receipts are only of moderate size, and we do not expect any more large shipments from now on. Prices hold firm at former Quotations. Extracted honey—while white clover is scarce, there seems to be an abun- dant supply of all other grades. We expect to see lower prices from now on. For the present we quote; California white sage, QC per pound; light amber sage. 8c per pound; while alfalfa. «(°8'2C; light amber alfalfa' 7(37';c; buckwheat. Beeswax quiet at !oc per pound. HiLDRETH & Segelken. Kansas City, Dec. 28.—The demand for honey still continues to be light, and we don't look for a much better demand until after the holidays. January and February are generally good honey months
