FANCY NUMBER ONE NUMBER TWO HONEY QUOTATIONS Just now is a good time for the l)ee-keeper who has honey yet to sell to keep his nerve. You will notice by the following reports that the market is rather unsettled. This is to be expected, all things considered, and no bee- keeper should become alarmed and rush his honey to market, only to more completely demoralize the same. While demand is dull j'et prices are still holding good, and with the return demand which is sure to come in the spring there should be no difficulty in selling at a satisfactory price. The main thing now is, don't get excited. BOSTON—Fancy white comb honey 17c to 18c. Light amber 16c. Amber 15c. Fancy white extracted 10c to lie. Light amber and amber extracted Sc to 9c. Wax 30c. BLAKE LEE CO., Dec. 22. 4 Chatam Row. CHICAGO—During the month of December the quantity of honey sold by the jobbers has not been as large as preceding months, yet it has sold quite well and while prices are easier, fancy grades are not plentiful and are firmly held at 17c to 18c per lb. Beeswax ranges at 30 to 32c per lb. and extracted honey is with- out any material change in price. R. A. BURNETT & Dec. 21. 173 W. South Water St. CINCINNATI—Market on comb honey has fallen off somewhat, only demand for fancy white selling in retail way at $, jobbing at $ to $ according to quantity. Extra white extracted in 60-pound cans at 10 cents, light amber in 60-pound cans at 8 5^ cents, beeswax, fair demand at $ a hundred. Above are sell- ing prices, not what we are paying. Dec. 18. C. H. W. WEBER CO. KANSAS CITY, MO:—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.
