Honey Quotations 



The following rules for gradinK honey were 

 adopted by the North American Bee-Keepers' Asso- 

 ciation, at the Washington meeting, and, so far as 

 possible, quotations aie made according to these 

 rules : 



Fancy— All sections to be well filled; combs 

 straight, of even thicl<ness, 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. l.-All sections well filled, but combs un- 

 even or crooked, detaqjied at the bottom, or with but 

 few cells unsealed; both wood and combunsoiled 

 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. 



The prices given in the following quotations are 

 those at which the dealers sell to the grocers. 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 deal- 

 ers charge only five per cent, when a shipment sells 

 for as much as otle hundred dollars. 



KANSAS CITY -Market firm on both honey and 

 wax are as follows; Fancy white S3. 25 per case, 

 No. 1 white S3. 00 per case, white extracted 7^2 cts. 

 Amber extracted 7 cts., dark extracted 5 cts., bees- 

 wax 25 cts.

CHICAGO- We have had a number of inquiries 

 for new comb honey, but our market is entirely 

 cleaned up on old stock and no new arrivals to 

 speak of have as yet been received. Look for a 

 firm and active market on new comb honey on ac- 

 count of scarcity of fruits of all kinds. We quote as 

 follows; Fancy white 16 cts. No. 1 White IScts, 

 No. 2 white 13 cts, white extracted 6'/2 to 7'/4 cts, 

 Amber, extracted 5 to 5!4 cts. Beeswax 30 to 32c.

CINCINNATI HONEY MARKET-Since our last 

 quotation there is no material change in the honey 

 market. With the exception that the demand is a lit- 

 tle better. As yat, prices have not reached that high 

 point that many people believe they will. We re- 

 ceived this week a car load of white comb honey 

 which we are selling at from 15c to 16c from the 

 store. This was the first car out of the State of 

 Colorado, and, naturally, commanded attention and 

 brought many purchasers. We will have two more 

 cars to arrive, which will more than satisfy the de- 

 mand, and we look fcrward to lower prices. 



Extracted honey is moving as lively as can be ex- 

 pected at this season of the year. We quote white 

 clover in barrels and cans at 7c. to 9c., according 

 to the quality. Amber in barrels at 5>4C. to 7c. 



We are paying 30c. per lb. for choice yellow bees 

 wax, free from ditt, and 28c. per lb. for darker 

 grades. 



THE FRED W. MUTH CO. 

 Sept 9, 07. 5 1 Walnut St., Cincinnati, Ohio. 



CHICAGO— Quite a few consignments of honey 

 have been received during past two weeks. No. 1 

 fancy white comb brings seventeen to eighteen 

 cents, off colors, one to three cents less in the whole- 

 sale way. Extracted, eight to nine cents for white. 

 Amber seven to eight. Sundry flavors of amber and 

 dark six to seven. Beeswax thirty to thirty-two. 



All of the foregoing being governed by quality, 

 style and package in the range of prices. Market 

 active in all grades. 



R. A. BURNETT & CO, 

 Chicago, III., Oct. 9. 07. 199 S. Water St 



TOLEDO— The demand is good for a good class 

 of honey, but bee-keepers seem to be holding their 

 crops for high prices. Some arrivals find ready sale 

 at reasonable prices. We do not look for honey to 

 go higher on account of Western honey coming into 

 the market in car lots. 



Fancy white 1 7 to 18 cents. No. 1 white 1 6 to 17 

 cents, fancy amber 1 5 to 16 cents, white extracted 

 7 to 7' J cents, amber extracted 5 to 6 cents, bees- 

 wax 26 to 28 cents.

QUEENS 



of Moore's Strain of Italians produce 

 workers that fill the supers and are not 

 inclined to swarm. They have won a 

 world-wide reputation for honey gather- 

 ing, hardness, gentleness, etc. 



Mr. W. Z. Hutchinson. Editor of The 

 Bee Keepers' Review. Flint. Mich., says: 



"As workers I have never seen them equaled. 

 They seem possessed of a steady, quiet determina- 

 tion that enabled them to lay up surplus ahead of 

 others. Easier bees to handle I have never seen." 



My queens are all bred from my best long-tongued 

 three-banded red clover stock (no other race bred in 

 my apiaries ' and the cells are built in strong colon- 

 ies well supplied with young bees 



Liberal feeding is practiced whenever there is a 

 scarcity of nectar. The ripe cells are given direct 

 to nuclei. Where the queens hatch and have their 

 freedom until they are ready to mail. 



These are some of the reasons why my queens 

 have given such good satisfaction. 



Untested queens, 75 cents each; six, for S4.00; 

 one dozen, for S7.50. Select untested, SI. 00 

 each; six. S5.00; dozen, S9.00. Safe arrival and 

 satisfaction guaranteed. Descriptive circular free. 



1 am now filling orders by return mail.
