Honey Quotations. 



The following rules for grading honey were 

 adopted by the North American Bee - Keepers' 

 Association, at its Washington meeting, and, mo 

 far as possible, quotations are made according 

 to these rules. 



Fancy.— All sections to be well filled ; combs 

 straight, of even thickness, and firmly attached 

 to all four sides ; both wood and comb unsoiled 

 by travel-stain, or otherwise ; all the cells sealed 

 except the row of cells next the wood. 



No. 1. — All sections well filled, but combs un- 

 even or crooked, detached at the bottom, or 

 with but few cells unsealed; both wood and 

 comb unsoiled by travel-stain or otherwise. 



In addition to this the honey is to be classified 

 according to color, using the terms white, amber 

 and dark. That is, there will be " fancy white," 

 No. 1,, dark," etc. 



The prices given in the following quotations 

 are those at which the dealers sell to the gro- 

 cers. From these prices must be deducted 

 freight, cartage and commission— the balance 

 being sent to the shipper. Commission is ten 

 per cent.; except that a few dealers charge only- 

 five per cent, when a shipment sells for as much 

 as one hundred dollars. 



CHICAGO— We quote as follows:— Fancy 

 white, i6c; No. i white, 15c; fancy amber, 13c; 

 No. I amber, 12c; fancy dark, loc; No. i dark, gc; 

 white, extracted, 7 to 8c; amber, 6 to 7c; dark 5 

 to 6c. Beeswax 30c.

KANSAS CITY, MO.— The honey market is 

 very firm, there being only a little coming in. 

 We quote as follows: — Fancy white, 15 to i6c; 

 No. I white, 14c; fancy amber, 15c; No i amber, 

 14c; fancy dark, 13c; No.i dark, 12c; white, ex- 

 tracted, 8c; amlier, 7c. Beeswax, 30.

BUFFAI^O- We quote the Buffalo market as 

 very moderately supplied with all kinds of hon- 

 ey. Strictly fancy in lightest supply and selling 

 from 16 to 17c mostly. X,ower grades, from 14 

 to I2C. Moderate amonnts can prc^ably be sold 

 at the.se prices and we advise cleaning up. Very 

 little demand for extracted in Buffalo. Beeswax 

 from 25 to 33c Ts to quality.

BATTERSON & CO. 

 159 Michigan St. Buffalo, N. "V. 



NEW YORK — Receipts of comb honey have 

 been more liberal of late, and the demand con- 

 tinues good — not much call for State extracted, 

 but low priced Southern extracted sells freely. 

 We quote as follows: — Fancy white, 15 to 16c; No. 

 I white, 145^ to 15c; fancy dark, 13 to I2]4c; No.i 

 dark, 12 to 13c; white extracted, 6 to 7c; amber, 

 4J4 to 554c; Beeswax, 27 to 28c. 



FRANCIS H. IvEGGETT & CO. 

 Nov. 19. W. Broadway, Franklin & Varick Sts. 



NEW YORK— The demand for comb honey 

 has slackened off — especially for lower grades. 

 Extracted is in good demand. Beeswax scarce. 

 We quote as follows: — Fancy white, 15c; No.i 

 white, 14c; fancy amber, 13c; No. i amber, 12c; 

 fancy dark, II to I2c; No.i dark, iic; white ex- 

 tracted 7j4c; amber, 6]4 to 7c; dark, 5% to 6c. 

 Beeswax, 29 to 30c.

CHICAGO — The demand for comb honey since 

 the first of the year, has been quite brisk, and 

 we look for an active market from now on. Ex- 

 tracted is not moving as readily. We solicit 

 your correspondence on tae honey topic. We 

 quote as follows: — Fancy white, 16 to i6J4c; No.i 

 white, 15^ to i6c; fancy amber, 14c; white ex- 

 tracted, 7J4 to 8c; amber, 6J4 to 7c.

CINCINNATI -The demand for all kinds of 

 honey has fallen off considerably in the last few 

 weeks, owing to the many other sweets offered 

 at this season of the year. l,ower prices are no 

 inducement to increase the consumption, as the 

 demand is not there, and will not be until about 

 the end of the month; consequently it is folly to 

 offer at lower prices. We quote amber extracted 

 in barrels at 5% to 6^c. White clover and bass- 

 wood 8 to 9y2c; fancy white comb honey, 16 to 17c. 

 lyo'wer grades hard to sell at any price. Bees- 

 wax firm at 29 and 30c.
