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, (juotations are made according to 

 these rules: 



Fancy.— \11 sections to be well filled; combs 

 straight, of even thickness, and firmly attached 

 to all four sides; botti wood and combunsoiled 

 by travel-sstain, 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. 



CHICAGO lU.— The bulk of the offerings in 

 comb honey now consist in dark lots that are 

 difficult to sell. Pare beeswax is in good de- 

 mand. We quote as follows: Fancy white, 18; 

 No. 1 white, 15 to 16; fancy amber, VlUtV.i\ No. 

 1 amber, 10; fancy dark. 12: beeswax, 23 to 25

CHIC.\(iO, 111.— The honey season is practi- 

 cally over for the year. Tlie cold spring has been 

 the cause of working ofiF what honey has been 

 shipped to this market. There will bo a clean 

 market to work on by tlietime new honey ar- 

 rives, and we anticipate quick sales with good 

 prices. We quote as follows : Fancy white, 15 

 to 16; No. 1 white 14; fancy amber, 1?; fancy 

 dark, 10 ; beeswax, 22 to 25.

CINCINNATI, Ohio.— There is no clioice comb 

 honey on tlie market. A fair article brings 14 to 

 16 in a jobbing way. The demand is good for 

 extracted at from 6 to 8 cts. There is a good de- 

 mand for choice yellow wax at from 'li to 27 cts. 

 CHAS. F. MUTH&SON.. 



April 1. Cincinnati, Ohio. 



MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. - There is a good suy- 

 lily on hand but it is mostly dark. This stock is 

 slow, but what little white there is onthe market 

 moves readily. We quote fancy white, 17 to 18; 

 two pound combs, 16 to 17 ; buckwheat, 15 to 16; 

 extracted honey, 10 to 11.

BUFFALO. N. Y.— Honey market is very quiet 

 and stock light. A limited amount of fiincy 

 could be handled to good advantage, but the 

 commoner grades are hard to move. Beeswax 

 is wanted and would sell well. We quote as fol 

 lows : Fancy white. 17 to 18; No. 1 white, 15 to 

 16; fancy dark, 8 to 10; No. 1 dark, 6 to 7 ; bees- 

 wax, 25 to 30. 



BATTERSON & CO , 



May 25. 167 & 169 Scott St., Buffalo, N. Y. 



KANSAS CITY, Mo.— The demand for extract- 

 ed honey is good and the supply light The sup- 

 ply of comb honey is fair aLd the demand the 

 same. Shipments of No. 1 would meet with very 

 ready sale. We quote as follows: No. 1 white, 

 16 to 17 ; fancy amber, 15 to 16; No. 1 amber 13 

 to 14 ; fancy dark, 12 to 1.1 ; No. 1 dark, 10 to 11 ; 

 white extracted. 6!4 to 7; dark extracted, 5 to 6 ; 



beeswax, 22 to 25,

NEW YORK.— The market is bare of coinl. 

 honey. Fancy white could be sold at 14 to ir> ; 

 fancy amber at 12 ; and dark at 10. The market 

 is quiet on extracted and no movement. Large 

 lots of West India and Mexican are arriving and 

 the market is well supplied. This class of hoii 

 ey sells at from 65 to 75 cts. per gallon. Becswa 

 is quiet but firm at from 27 to 29.
