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.— All sections to be weU 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 fiUed, but combs un- 

 even or crooked, detached at the bottom, or 

 with but few cells unsealed; both wood and 

 comb unsoUed 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 wiU be " fancy white, 

 "No. 1 dark,"' etc. 



BUFFALO, N. Y.— There is a liberal stock of 

 honey on hand and trade is dull, but we expect 

 to clean out all this month and next. We quote 

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

 11 to 12 ; fancy dark, 8 to 9 ; No. 1 dark, 7 to 1}4; 

 white extracted, 6 ; dark, 5 ; beeswax, 25 to 30.

CHICAGO. Ill —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 have been sold, but the supply is at 

 present in excess of the demand. Extracted 

 finds ready sale at 6 to 6)4 for Northern honey ; 

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

CHICAGO, 111. — Comb honey is selling in 

 small lots, when choice, at 14 to 15 cts; off 

 grades are hard to dispose of. Extracted is of 

 slow sale at 5 and 6 cts. Beeswax is in good de- 

 mand at 25 cts for pure goods. 



R. A. BURNETT & CO., 



Mar. 7. 161 So. Water St., Chicago, lU. 



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 T-A; amber extracted, 6; dark extracted, 5; 

 beeswax, 20 to ^.

Mar 7. 



MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.,— The market is very 



weak at present, but, evidently will be better 



later on. We quote as follows : FancySwhite, 16 



to 17; No. 1 white, 15; fancy amber, ISV^ to 14; 



No. 1 amber, 12 ; fancy dark, 10 : white extracted. 



6H to 7 ; amber extracted, 6 ; dark extracted. 5i4.

Jan. 2. 



CHICAGO 111.— The honey market is very duU 

 at last month's quotations ; but we have moved 

 considerable stock at 13 cts and believe that 13 to 

 14 will rule for the balance of the season. There 

 is plenty of inquiry for beeswax with none to ot- 

 fer. We quote as follows : Fancy white, 13 to 

 14; No. 1 white, 13; fancy amber, 12; white ex- 

 tracted, 5 to 6 ; beeswax, 25.

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 follows : Fancy white. 11 to 12 : No. 

 1 white, 10 to 11; fancy amber, 11 ; fancy dark, 

 9 ; white extracted, 5-4 to 6 ; amber extracted, 

 5^ ; dark extracted. 5 ; beeswax, 27 to 28.

 that the .^binos are the best, while our orders
