 adopted i y llie North Anieiican Br-e- Keepers' 

 Association, at the Washington meeting, atH, so 

 far as pissible. quotations are niade according to 

 these rnles: 



Fancy— All sections to be well filled; combs 

 strai'ht, of even thickness, and tirnily attached 

 to all four S'd-'s; both wood and comb unsoiled 

 by travel-stain or otherwise; all the cells sealed 

 except the row of cells next the wood. 



No. I. — Ml sections well filled, but combs un- 

 even or crooked, detached at the bottom, or with 

 but few ce'ls unsealed; both wood and comb un- 

 soiled by travel stain or otherwise.

In addition to this the honey is to be c'assified 

 according to color, using the terms white, amber 

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

 "No. I, 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 



ger cent ; except that a few dealers charge only 

 ve percent when a shipment sells for as much 

 as one hundred dollars. 



BUFFAt,0 — Really fancy honey is selling well 

 and receipts are modeiate. Other grades move 

 fairly well We advise moderate shipments of 

 all grades. We quote as follows; F'ancy white, 

 13 to 14c; No. I white, 11 to 12c; fancy amber, 

 9 to loc; No. I amber g to 10c; fancy dark 9 

 and 10; No. r dark, 8 to 9c; white extracted, 7 to 

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

 7c. Beeswax 28 to 32c

CIS'CINVATI— Reports from different parts of 

 the country give evidence of an almost total 

 failure in the comb honey crop excepting some 

 points in the North. We are .SELi.iNfi this 

 Northern comb honey, at from 14 to 16c per lb. 

 by the case. 



The demand extracted honey is about equal to 

 the receipts, which are good. We continue to 

 sell amber in barrels at 55<( to 6c. White clover 

 at 6!.2 to 7'/ic Por beeswax, we are paying 30c 

 per lb. cash, delivered here. 



(We wish to call the attention of the producer 

 to the above quotations on honey He must not 

 expect to receive these prices on his product. 

 The above are our selling prices.) 



THE FRED W. MUTH CO. 

 Oct 6, o.s. 51 Walnut St., Cincinnati, Ohio. 



CHICAGO— The trade is steady with about the 

 usual demand; the prices range from 14c to i^c 

 for best grades of while comb honey. There is 

 not an active demand for off grades, which 

 usually sell at ic to 3c per lb. less. 



For extracted a steady cemaiid exists for the 

 best grades at b]4c to 7c, but for sour or off 

 flavors there is practically no sale. Beeswax, 

 brings 30c per lb.

CHICAGO— Trade on both comb and extracted 

 honey the past month has been quite brisk, stock 

 moving readily at prices indicated above. ComO 

 honey cleaning up f<ist, and stocks in Chicago 

 not equal to prospective sales. Therefore, if 

 producers still have any honey unsold, either 

 in comb or extracted, advise letting it come for- 

 ward, as we are in position to place it so as to 

 net producers good returns; or we will purchase 

 outright. We quote at. follows: 

 Fancy white, 15c; No. i while, 14c; No. 2 white, 

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

 5C to 6c. Beeswax 28 to 30c.
