(HICAGO.Ill. -Honey. The limited denian.l 

 for comb honey does not permit our quoting it 

 above 15c, with no sales of white selling below 

 14 to UVt. The stock that we have received this 

 year is of fine quality, and we advise forwarding 

 to market at once, so as to be received here be- 

 fore the cold weather sets in. Extracted is sell- 

 ing at 6 to 6 '4. Beeswax, 23.

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 otlierwise ; 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.— We quote as foUows : 



No. 1 white, 15 to 16; No. 1 amber, 13 to 14; No. 1 



dark, 10 to 12 : white extracted, 6 ',4 to 7 ; amber 



extracted, 6 ; dark extracted, 5. Beeswax, 20 to 22. 



CLEMONS-MASON CO., 



Nov. 1. 521 Walnut St., Kansas City Mo. 



BUFFALO, N. Y.— Sales are very light, but 

 stocks are also moderate, and we have no doubt 

 that liberal shipments to this market will sell to 

 as good advantage as in any market to which 

 honey can be sent. We quote as follows : Fancy 

 white, 14 to 15 ; No. 1 white, 12 to 13 ; fancy dark, 

 10 to 11 ; No. 1 dark, 9 to 9^. Beeswax, 25 to 30.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., - We are receiving 

 large shipments of honey but they are mostly of 

 poor quality. Fancy white is selling at 18 to 2(i 

 cts., but we are cleaning up more No. 1 wliite at 

 16 cts. than anything else. We quote as follows : 

 Fancy white, 18 to 20; No. 1, 16 ; fancy amber. 1.". : 

 fancy dark. 14; white extracted, 7'/j to 8; dark 

 extracted, 6'4 to 6%. No sale for beeswax.

Sept. 27, 



CHICAGO, lU. — Fancy white comb honey 

 brings 15c per pound. Grades not grading first - 

 class are not selling at over 14c. as there has 

 been quite a quantity of California honey re- 

 ceived here that is offered at 14c. The quality is 

 superior to most of that we receive. Dark hon- 

 ey sells slowly at 12 to 13c. Extracted ranges 

 from 5 to 7c per lb., according to color, quality, 

 flavor and style of package. Beeswax 22c per 

 lb. The trade in honey has been large this sea- 

 son.

NEW YORK. N. Y.— Our market for both comb 

 and extracted honey is unusually dull and in- 

 active. The supply is large and continues to 

 accumulate, and to move round lots, even the 

 above prices must be shaded. Beeswax is firm 

 and advancing in price. We quote as follows : 

 Fancy white. 13; No. 1 white, 12; No. 1 amber, 

 11; fancy dark, 10; No. 1 dark, 9; white e.\- 

 tracted, 6 to ej^ ; amber, 5^ to 6 ; dark, 5 to 5>,. . 

 Beeswax, 26 to 27.

 16; No. 1 white, U to 15; fancy amber. 13; No 1
