THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW 



Honey Quotations. 



The following rales for grading honey were 

 adopted by the North American Bee - Keepers' 

 Association, at its Washington meeting, and, so 

 far as possible, quotations are made according 

 to these rales : 



Fancy.— All sections to be well filled ; combs 

 straight, of even thickness, and firmly attached 

 to all foar 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, bat 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," 

 N, o. 1 dark,"' etc.

FRANCIS H. LEGGETT&CO., 

 Jan. 24 W.Broadway, Franklin & Varick Sts. 



NEW YORK. N. Y.— Demand for comb hon- 

 ey is rather slow, especially for off grades, 

 white and dark, and, as we have a large stock of 

 these would not advise shipping for the near 

 future. Our stock of fancy white is light and 

 such would find ready sale at quotations. Our 

 market for extracted buckwheat will open up 

 shortly and we would advise bee-keepers to 

 ship this along now. Beeswax steady. We 

 quote as follows: Fancy white, 11 to 12; No. 1. 

 White, 10; Fancy Amber, 9; No 1. Amber, 8; 

 Fancy Dark, 7 : No. ! Dark, 6; White, extracted, 

 5 to 514 ; Amber, 41/2 to 4^ ; Dark, 4 to 41% ; 

 Beeswax, 26 to 28.

BUFFALO, N. Y.— There is quite a good trade

 10 to 11 ; No. 1, white, 9 to 10; fancy amber, 7 to
