 white, extracted, 6®7; amber. 5@6; dark, 4@5; 

 beeswax, '22@'Z3. Since our last report the receipts 

 of honey have increased and our sales have been 

 quite g'ood, but more especiallj' (jf extracted white. 

 The demand for comb lionev is not very active yet, 

 but we think it will come later on. We feel that 

 confidence in values is being- grradually restored, 

 and increased demand will follow in every depart- 

 ment of trade— honey also. 



A. V Bishop & Co., 



Oct. 7. Milwaukee, Wis. 



New York.— H'Uif I/,— There is a fair demand for 

 fancy white comb honey, while off grades, mixed, 

 and liut-kwheat, are rather neglected. Receipts are 

 heavy, and stocks accumulatinji'. S;iles are mostly 

 in small lots, and in order to move round quantities 

 it is necessary to shade quotations. We quote 

 fancy white, 12@13; ofi" grades, 1(1@11; buckwheat, 

 8@9. Extracted in fairlj- good demand at unchanged 

 prices. Beeswax doing a little better, and is firm at

 ume, enabling us to close out receipts promptly. 

 We usually have the best trade of the year at this 

 time, and it is also the season when comb honey 

 bears transportation well.
