Honey Quolalioiis. 



The following rules for grading honey were 

 adopted by the North American Bee-Keepers' Asso- 

 ciation, at the Washington meeting, and, so 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 grocers. 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 deal- 

 ers charge only five per cent, when a shipment sells 

 for as much as one hundred dollars. 



BOSTON— We quote as follows: Fancy white 

 comb honey. 16 to 17c: No 1 white, 15 to 16c; 

 fancy white extracted, 9 to 10c: light amber, 7 to 

 5c: beeswax, 32c.

TOLEDO— The demand for comb honey is light, 

 owing to high prices and risk in shipping during 

 the cold weather; extracted in fairly good demand, 

 for better grades. Beeswax firm at 28 and 30 

 cents. We quote as follows: Fancy white 15 to 

 1654c: No. 1 white, 14^ to 15^c; fancy amber, 

 14 to 15c; white extracted, 8% to 9c, amber ex- 

 tracted, 7 to 8c.

CINCINNATI HONEY MARKET-The demand 

 for honey is declining, as the warm weather ap- 

 proaches, with prices about the same as last month. 

 We quote best table honey at 9!'2C per pound, in 

 60 pound cans; second grade at 8'/^c, in 60 pound 

 cans. Amber in barrels at 6c and 7kc, according 

 to the quality and quantity bougnt. Fancy comb 

 honey is selling at 15c and 16c. We want ship- 

 ments of beeswax at 30c cash delivered here, or 

 32c in trade.

Mar 19, 10. 



NEW YORK GITY-Comb honey, very little 

 doing. Some demand for No. 1 and fancy white, 

 at about 1 4c a pound. We are receiving small lots 

 right along, which evidently have been held back. 

 Off grades are in very poor demand, and no demand 

 for dark or buckwheat. Strictiy tancy and No. 1 

 white still bring 14c, while off grades and mixed 

 will not bring over 1 1 c to 1 2c, according to quality. 

 Extracted, demand fair only, with sufficient supply, 

 especially of California. We quote: Water white 

 sage, 9c; white sage, 8c to 8!^c; light amber, 7c 

 to 754c: amber. 6c to e'ic. Cuban and West India 

 from 68 to 75c a gallon, according to quality. 

 Beeswax steady at 30c a pound.
