Honey Quotations. 



The following rules for grading honey were 

 adopted by the North American Bee - Keepers' 

 Association, at its last meeting, and, so far as 

 possible, quotations are made according to 

 these rules : 



Fancy.— 411 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 ttie terms white, amber 

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

 " No. 1 dark," etc. 



CHICAGO 111.— We are selling a little fancy 

 comb honey, but the market is very quiet. We. 

 quote as follows : Fancy white, 15; N<>, 1 white, 

 14 ; fancy amber, 13 ; No. 1 amber, 13 ; No. 1 dark, 

 10 ; white extracted, 6 ; amber extracted, 5i4 to 

 6 ; beeswax, 20 to 22.

CHICAGO, 111.— The market is quiet, as it 

 usually is at this time of the year. We quote as 

 follows : Fancy white, 15 ; No. 1 white, 13 to 14 ; 

 fancy dark, 10 to 12 ; beeswax, 20 to 22.

CHICAGO. 111.— The Chicago market has 

 plenty of honey, and 14c seems to be the outside 

 price obtainable. Any thing that will not grade 

 strictly No. 1 must be sold at 12 to 13. Large 

 quantities liave been sold, but the supply is at 

 present in excess f)f the demand. Extracted 

 finds ready sale at 6 to 6!^ for Northern honey ; 

 Southern, in barrels, 5. Beeswax, 22 to 24. 



KANSAS CITY, Mo.— The demand for all kinds 

 of honey is very light. We quote as follows : 

 No. 1 white, 14 to 15 ; No 1 amber, 13 to 14; fancy 

 dark. 10 to 12: No. 1 dark, 10; white extracted, 

 7 to 7^4; amber extracted, 6; dark extracted, 5; 

 beeswax, 20 to "^2. 



CLEMONS-MASON CO., 

 Jan 2. 521 Walnut St. Kansas City Mo. 



MINNEAPOLIS, Minn-.-The market is very 



weak at present, but, evidently will be better 



later on. We quote as follows : Fancy white, 16 



to 17; No. 1 white, 15; fancy amber, 13' 2 to 14; 



No 1 amber, \i ; fancy dark, 10 : white extracted. 



6^4 to 7; amber extracted, 6 ; dark extracted. 5'/^.

Jan. 2. 



NEW YORK. N. Y. -The demand for comb 

 honey has almost ceased, while the market is yet 

 well stocked. In order to move round lots, the 

 prices given must be " shaded." Extracted is in 

 fair demand, but the supply is abundant. Bees 

 wax meets with a ready sale at the prices given. 

 We quote as foUows : Fancy white, 12 to 13; No. 

 1 white, 11 to \i\ fancy amber, 11 ; fancy dark, 

 10; white extracted, 6 to 6}/^; amber extracted, 

 5V^ ; dark extracted, 5 ; beeswax, 26 to 27. 



HILDRETH BROS. & SEGELKEN, 

 Jan. 2. 28 A 30 West Broadway New York. 



BUFFALO, N. Y.— The honey market is quiet, 

 stock on hand is liberal and trade light, except 

 on the second grade which is now moving off 

 more readily on account of the lower price. 

 There is also an excellent demand for buckwheat 

 honey of which there is a light supply. A liberal 

 supply could be handled here very satisfactorily. 

 We quote as follows : Fancy white, 14 to 15 ; No. 

 1 white, 12 to 13 ; fancy dark, 10 to 11 ; No. 1 dark. 

 8 to 9; white extracted, 6 to 7; dark extracted, 

 6 ; beeswax, 25 co 39.
