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 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 the terms white, amber 

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

 " No. 1 dark," etc. 



KANSAS CITY, Mo.— Honey is seUing at the 

 following prices: fancy white, 17; No. 1 white, 

 16; fancy aml)er,15; No. 1 amber, 14; fancy 

 dark, 12; No. 1 dark, 10; white extracted, 7'i; 

 amber, 6'/4 ; dark, 5 to 6. Beeswax, 20 to 22.

BUFFALO.N. Y.- The demand for fancy No. 

 1, pound combs is improving, and we can soon 

 satisfactorily place liberal (luantities. All honey 

 for the Buffalo market should be unglassed— 

 that is, glass on only the outside of thf cases. 

 We quote asf'.llows: fancy white. 14 to 15; No. 1 

 white, 12 to 13; fancy amber, 8 to 10 ; No. 1 amber, 

 7 to 8; fancy dark. Mo 10;. No. 1 dark, 7 to 8; 

 white extracted, 6 to 654 ; amber 5 to 5>2 ; dark, 4 

 to 4H. Beeswax, 24 to 25.

('HICAGO, I U. — Choice white comb honey 

 is selling at 15 cts. Some fancy brings 16. The 

 market is not very active, but, so far. we have 

 been able to sustain tliese prices. Extracted 

 remains unchanged at from 5 to 7, according to 

 quality, flavor, and style of package. Beeswax, 

 20 to 22.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.,-We think honey will 

 sell much lower later on and now is the time to 

 market it. We quote as follows: Fancy white, 

 18 to 20; No. 1 wliite, 17 ; fancy amber, 16; No. 1 

 amber, 14; fancy dark, Hi; No. I dark, 11; white 

 extracted, 8 to 9 ; amber, 7 to b ; dark, 6V2. Bees- 

 wax is unsalable. 



116 First Ave., North, Minneapolis, Minn. 



Aug. 1, 



NEW YORK— The new crop of extracted from 

 California and the South is arriving very freely. 

 There is a limited demand and prices have a 

 downward tendency. We ijiiote as follows: 

 White extracted. 6'/2 to 7 ; Ainber, 6 to 6V^; Dark, 

 5!4 to 6. Beeswax, 26 to 27. 



HILDRETH BROS. & SEGELKEN, 



July 7. 28 & 30 West Broadway New York. 



CINCINNATI, Ohio.- The demand is fair for 

 extracted honey at from 5 to 8 cts., with a good 

 supply 011 hand. Quite a number of small ar- 

 rivals of nice comb honey found a ready sale dur- 

 ing the past few weeks. The demand is fair. 

 The close money market causes slow collections 

 and makes itself felt in the demand for all 'mer- 

 chandise, honey included. There is a fair demand 

 for beeswax at from 20 to 23 cts. for good tn 

 choice yellow. 



CHAS. F. MUTH & SON.. 



.Vag. 23. Cincinnati, Ohio. 



CHICAGO 111.— The market is rapidly declin- 

 ing on all honey. Fancy white is offered in 

 quantities, by outside parties, at 14 cts. ; but we 

 think this will not last long. We look for better 

 prices after small fruits are oiitof the way. The 

 early shipments of Southern honey, and the low 

 prices at which it was atfordtMl, tempted buyers 

 who heretofore never used it ; however, this is 

 about used up, and Western stock is beginning to 

 move. We quote as follows: fancy white,15 ; No. 

 1 white, 14 ; fancy amber.12',2; white extracted, 7 

 to IVi ; beeswax. 16 to 20. 



J. A. LAMON, 



Sep. 2. 44 &48 So. Water St., Chicago, 111. 



CHICAGO.Ill- Honey this year is being 

 placed on the market earlier than last season, 

 out the demand is restricted and will be light un- 

 til small fruits are out of the market: and with 

 the prospect of a large crop, bu.vers will be par- 

 ticular as to quality, and the best will find ready 

 sale upon arrival. No. 1 comb, 16: extracted, as 

 to quality, 5 to 7. Beeswax. 22 to 24. 



We extend to all bee-keepers who visit the city 

 an invitation to call on U8,likewi8e to make use 

 of ouroffce. in care of whicli they can have their 

 mail addressed, and from which they can write 

 their letters. Hotel accoumiodations secured.
