Honey Quotations. 



The folhjwing rules for grading honey were 

 adop'ed h.v the North American Bee- Keepers' 

 Asaoeiatioii. at its Washington meeting, and, so 

 far a« ponsible, ijuotationsare made according 

 to thoHp rnJes. 



Fancy. — All sections to be well filled ; combe 

 straight, of even thickness, and tirmly attached 

 to hII four sides; both wood and comb unsoiled 

 by I ravel-Rtain, or otherwise ; all the colls sealed 

 oxcejtt the row of cells next the wood. 



No. 1. — .Ml sections well tiUed, but combs un- 

 even or crooked, detached at the bottom, or 

 with but few cells uueea'ed ; both wood and 

 oonih unsoiled by travel-stain or otherwise. 



In addition to this the honey is to be classified 

 according to color, nsing the terms white, amber 

 and dark. That is, there will he " 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 the.se 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 — Trade on comb honey is exceeding- 

 Iv dull; there is no demand, and in order to meet 

 buyers' views, concessions in prices have to lie 

 nuide. Extracted is moving more readily. We 

 quote as follow.s: I'ancy white, i.s to ]6c; No.i 

 white, 14 to 15c; white extracted, 614 to yj^. 

 S. T. FISH & CO., 



Apr. 2. 189 So. Water St., Chicago, Ills. 



KANSAS CITY, MO.— The comb honey mar- 

 ket is firm, and stock well cleaned up. Extract- 

 ed is steady, hut the demand is limited. Bees- 

 wax is in good demand. We quote as follows: 

 Fancy white, 14c: No.i white. 13c; No.i amber, 

 i2c; white extracted, 7c; amber, 6c Beeswax, 

 30c. 



WAI^KER-BREWSTER GROCER CO., 



April 3. 423 Walnut St. Kansas City, Mo. 



BUFFALO — Strictly fancy honey is selling 

 very well here; in fact, belleVthan usual at this 

 season, mostly at 15c per pound. Other grades, 

 however, have to be cut in price to effect sales. 



We advi.se cleaning up all honey now quickly 

 as possible. We do not advise shipping extract- 

 ed to this market.

BATTERSON & CO. 

 159 Michigan St. Buffalo, N. Y. 



NEW YORK— There is a fair demand for 

 comb honey in small quantity, but the sup])ly is 

 more than sufficient. Trade on extracted honev 

 has been good. We have many inquiries for 

 beeswax. U'e quote as follows: Fancy white, 

 14 to 15c; No. I white, 12 to 14c; No.i amlier, 11 to 

 T2c; fancj' dark, 11 to 12c; white extracled, y'/i to 

 8J4c; amber, 6 to 7^c; beeswax 32 to 33c. 



FRANCIS H. LEGGETT & CO. 



Apr. 3. W. Broadway, Franklin & Varick Sts. 



NEW YORK — The market is quiet on both 

 comb and extracled honey, with abundant siip- 

 ply. Beeswax is firm and wanted. We quote as 

 follows: Fancy white, I'c: No.i white, 1310 14c; 

 fancy amber, 12c; No.i amber, iic; fancy dark, 

 loc; white extracted, 7c; amber, 6 to 6V2C; dark, 

 5J4c; liceswa.x, 29 to 30c. 



HIIvDRETH & SF;GEIvKEN, 

 265 & 267 Greenwich St., Cor. Murray St. 

 April 3. New York. 



CHICAGO— Choice to fancy white comb honey 

 sells in a limited way at i.s to 16c. There is no 

 certain price for other grades, but they sell slow- 

 ly at 3 to 5c less per pound. Extracted, 6 to 7c 

 for white grades; ambers, 554 to 634c. Beesivax 

 wanted at 32c per pound. 



R. A. BURNETT & Co.. 

 April 7. 163 So. Water St.. Chicago. Ills. 



CINCINNATI— The demand for all kinds of 

 honey has fallen off considerably in the last few 

 weeks, owiugto the many other sweets offered 

 at this season of the year. I.ower prices are no 

 iuduceiheut to increase the consumption, as the 

 demand is not there, and will not be until about 

 the end of the month; conseqiitntly it is folly to 

 offer at lower prices. We quote amber extracted 

 in barrels at 5X to 6'4c. White clover and bass- 

 wood S to 9!4c; fancy white comb honey, 16 to 17c. 

 i,ower grades hard to sell at any price. Bees- 

 wax firm at 29 and 30c.
