Honey yuotations 



The following rules for grading honey were 

 adopted hj' the North Anie i;ati B -e-K.ee pers' 

 Association, at the Wasiiington meeting, an 1, so 

 far as p issible, qnotitions are niade according to 

 these rules: 



Fancy — All sections to be well fiUei; combs 

 straight, of even thickness, and hrmiy attached 

 to all four sidfs; both wood and como unsoiled 

 by travel-stain or otherwise; all the eels sealed 

 except the row of cells next the wood. 



No. I. — .^11 sections well filled, but combs un- 

 even or crooked, detached at the bottom, or with 

 but few cells 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 baance 

 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— There is the usual dullness in the 

 honey trade at this date owing to most of the re- 

 tailers having stocked up sufficiently to carry 

 them over the holidays; but the stocks in the 

 hunds of the trade generally are below the nor- 

 mal; hence prices are firm at 15c to i6c for No. i 

 to fancy white comb, with off grades at ic to 2c 

 less; amber grades dull at loc to I2C. Extracted 

 white firm at 8c for clover and basswood; ambers 

 654c to 754 per lb. Beeswax 30c per lb,

 dark loc; wh te extracted y]4c to 8c: amber ex-

CINCINNATI— The honey market is in a 

 healthy condition, particularly for extracted 

 honey the demand being better than one year 

 ago. This is probably due to the excitement 

 among those holders who are trying to inflate the 

 prices. We quote amber extracted honey in bar- 

 rels at 6c to 7c, according to the quality. Fanoy 

 table honey in barrels and 60 lb. cans, at 8c to 9c. 



The demand for comb honey has decreased 

 somewhat, owing to the season of the year when 

 the sale of that article suffers. We ofTer fancy 

 comb honey in a wholesale way at 15c to i6c. 

 (The above are our selling prices.) 



For ch< ice, yellow bees wax, we are paying 

 30c per pound, delivered here.
