Honey yuotations 



The fol owing rules for grading honey were 

 adopted l.j' the North Aineiican Bee-Keepers' 

 Association, at the Washington meeting, and, so 

 far as possible, quotations are niade according to 

 these rules: 



Fancy— All sections to be well filled; combs 

 straiaht, of even thickness, and firmly attached 

 to all four sidf s; both wood and comb unsoiled 

 by travel-stain or otherwise; all the cells sealed 

 except the row of cells next the wood. 



No. I.— All sections well filled, but combs un- 

 even or crooked, detPched at the bottom, or with 

 but few cells unsealed; both wood and comb un- 

 soiled 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. I, dark," etc. 



The prices given in the following quotations 

 are those at which the dealers sell to the gro- 

 cers. From these prices must be deducted 

 freight, cartage and commission — the balance 

 being sent to the shipper. Commission is ten 

 per cent ; except that a few dtalers charge only 

 five per cent, when a shipment sells for as much 

 as one hundred dollars. 



BUFFALO— "^ome really fancy honey wanted 

 now to sell. I<ower grades not wanted, except 

 at very low prices. We quote as follows: Fancy 

 while, 14c to 15c; No. i white, 12 to 13c; fancy 

 amber, IOC to 11c. Beeswax 28 to 32c.

CHICAGO— There is the usual dullness in the 

 honey trade at this date owing to most of the re- 

 tailers having stocked up sufficiently to carry 

 them over the holidays; but the stocks in the 

 hands of the trade generally are below the nor- 

 mal; hence prices are firm at 13c to i6c for No. i 

 to fancy white comb, with off grades at ic to 2C 

 less; amber grades dull at loc to 12c. Extracted 

 white firm at 8c for clover and bass wood; ambers 

 6%c to 75^ per lb. Beeswax 30c per lb,

CINCINNATI— The honey market at present 

 is very quiet. Holders of this article are not

 6c to 7c. Fancy light amber in cans, at 7c to 8c 

 fancy white 9c.
