HONEY and BEESWAX 



niARKEX «llJOXATIO:^S. 



The following rules for grading honey were 

 adopted by the North American Bee-Keepers' 

 Aesoclatlon. and, so far as possible, quota- 

 tions are made according to these rules: 



Fancy.— All sections to be well filled : combs 

 straight, of even thlcliness, and firmly at- 

 tached 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 

 uneven or croolsed. detached at the bottom. 

 or with but few cells unsealed; both wood 

 and comb unsoiled by travel-stain or other- 

 wise. 



In addition to this the honey is to be classi- 

 fied according to color, using the terms white, 

 amber and dark. That Is. there will be "fancy 

 white," "No. 1 dark," etc. 



Chicago, 111., Nov. 18.— Fancy white, 12® 

 13c.: No. 1, lOaile.; tancy amber, 9(gH0c.; 

 No. l,7(S8c.; tancy dark. 9c.; No. 1, 7@8c. 

 Extracted, white, 5®7c. ; amber. 5@6c.; dark, 

 4S4c. Beeswax, •iQ@,-Z'lc. 



Comb honey is selling very slowly.

 comb, i:t-14c.; No. 1 white. 11-1 2c. ; fancy 

 amber. lO-llc; dark. 8-9c. Extracted, white. 

 6-8c. ; amber, 4-5c.; dark, 3-fc. Beeswax, 26c.

 overstocked at present.

 1214c.; fancy amber, 10-llc.: No. 1 amber. 9- 

 lOc; fancy dark, 8-9c. Extracted, white, 5V4

Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 7.— Fancy white. 

 14-loc.; No. 1 white, 12-13c. Extracted, 

 white. 6-7c. Beesv/ax. 22-25c. 



Demand is fair for grades quoted, but no 

 demand for inferior grades. 



New York, N. Y , Kov. 7.— Fancy white, 

 12c.; off grades, lOOllc; buckwheat. 8@9c. 

 No change in extracted. Beeswax firm at 26 

 @27c. 



The market is well supplied with comb 

 honey of all grades and styles. Fancy white 

 is in fair demand, while off grades white and 

 buckwheat are moving off rather slowly. 



Albany, N. Y., Nov. 7.— Fancy white, 12- 

 13c.; No. 1, 11-13C.; fancy amber, 9-100-; 

 No. 1 dark, 8-9c. Extracted, white, 6-7c.; 

 dark. 4-oc. 



The receipts of both comb and extracted 

 honey are very large, and prices are some- 

 what lower. We have an ample stock of all 

 styles except paper cartons weighing less 

 than a pound. 



Cincinnati, Ohio, Nov. 7.— Comb honey, 

 10@14c., according toquality. Extracted, :iy, 

 @6c. Demand is slow for nil kinds of honey, 

 while the supply is good.

 good to choice yellow.

 14!4@l.ic.; No. 1 white. 12!/2@13c. Extracted, 

 white. 6@7c.; amber, 4H@ol^c. Beeswax. 22 

 ®25c. 



There is not very much honey In our mar- 

 ket Selling rather slow. Demand beginning 

 to be a little better. Think trade will be fair 

 in this line this fall. 



St. Iionis, Mo., Nov. 9.— Fancy white, 14o.; 

 No. 1 white, 12(ai3c.; fancy amber, ll@12c.; 

 No. I amber. 10(aio;4c. ; fancy dark, 9@9V4c, ;

 6(a7o.; in barrels. 5@.3'/4c.; amber, 4J4@49^c.; 

 dark. 3!4@4c. Beeswax, 2til4@27c. 



Baker stock of extracted honey, 4@5c ; 

 stock very scarce. Fair receipts of comb. 

 Beeswax in good demand. 



San Francisco, Calif,, Nov. 7. — White 

 comb. lOc; amber, 7!4-9c. Extracted, white, 

 o-b'Ao.; light amber, 4!4-5c.; amber colored

 Extracted, white. 6-7o.; amber, 5-6c.; dark, 

 4-5c. Beeswax, 22-24C. 



New crop of honey begins to come forward. 

 The demand is very poor and quotations al- 

 most nominal. Weather is very warm and 

 the consumption of honey is very small. 

 Plenty of fruit, and hence the appetite is sat- 

 isfied with same in preference. Later on we 

 expect an Improved demand for honey of all 

 kinds. 



Minneapolis, Minn., Nov. 7. — Fancy 

 white, ViVic; No. 1 white. 10@llc.; fancy 

 amber. 9@10c.; No. 1 amber. 8@9c.; fancy

 white. bVi^QVic; amber, 5@5^c.; dark. 4® 

 5c. Beeswax, 23®26c. 



The demand for both comb and extracted is 

 very quiet, and for the latter, nominal. The 

 hot weather of the past week or so has checked 

 demand for comb honey.

 comb, loc. ; No. 1 white. 13@14c. ; fancy 

 amber. 12-13c. ; No. 1 amijer. ll-i;c.; fancy
