Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 10. 



Buffalo. — Since my last report there is very 

 little improvement in demand for white honey ; quitt 

 1 call for buckwheat, but hardly any coming \u. 

 Prices are easy on white, and firm on buckwheai. 

 No. 1 to fancy white-clover comb honey brings 16 

 to 17; No. 2 ditto, 12 to 14; No. 1 buckwheat comb 

 honey, 13 to 14; white extracted, 9 to 10 ; slow sale; 

 buckwheat extracted, 7 % to 8 ; good demand ; amber 

 extracted, 7 to 71/2. Beeswax, 28 to 30. 



Buffalo, Oct. 18. W. C. Townsend. 



Liverpool. — The market remains very quiet, with 

 only retail sales of all descriptions. For Chilian, 

 average pile 3, $5.52 c. i. f. has been paid, for the 

 Continent; but sellers are now encouraging $5.40. 

 Small sales of Californian have been made at $10.32 

 11 $10.80, and of New Zealand at $10.80. Tliere is 

 no Jamaican on the spot at present. Since our last 

 report the beeswax market has been firm, and about 

 70 bags Chilian sold on spot at $37.02 to $41.88 

 per cwt. as to qualitv. 



Liverpool, Eng., Oct. 15. Taylor & Co 



Chicago. — The market during the past two weeks 

 has been more active, and has nearly kept pace with 

 .the receipts; but the accumulations of the previous 

 four weeks or more are, many of them, yet unsold. 

 The white grades of comb honey range from 16 to 

 17 for the A No. 1 to fancy; but the ma.iority of the 

 receipts sell at from 15 to 16. The amber grades 

 range from 1 to 3 cts. per lb. less. Extracted honey 

 is also quiet, with the white grades bringing from 

 8 to 9, and the ambers from 7 to 8, according to 

 kind and quality. The weather and season of the 

 year are now favorable for the outlet of honey ; and 

 were it not for the large offerings, the quality of the 

 crop should command even higher prices than now 

 prevail. Beeswax is steady at from 30 to 32, ac- 

 cording to color and cleanliness. 



Chicago, Oct. 16. R. A. Burnett & Co. 



St. Louis. — The demand for both comb and ex- 

 tracted honey has been quite active of late, and will 

 continue so as the weather grows cooler. While the 

 receipts of Southern honey have not been so large 

 the past two weeks, some Western honey has been 

 coming in to this market to take its place. Southern 

 light-amber extracted honey can now be quoted at 

 6^ to 6V2 in barrels and half -barrels ; and 6V2 

 to 7 in five-gallon cans. Southern white comb 

 hcney sells bv the pound at 15 to 16; No. 2, 13 to 

 14; light amber, 12 to 14; dark, 10 to 11. Most of 

 the comb honey in this market is sold by the case, 

 and we can quote it as follows: Southern white, full 

 comb honey, at $3.00 to $3.25; light amber from 

 $2.50 to $2.75, according to quality. Dark or brok- 

 ei' comb or combs that are partly filled are almost 

 unsalable. The above quotations are for round lots. 

 Beeswax is in good demand, and is now quoted at 

 32 cents for prime. Inferior and impure sells for 

 less. R. BUrtmann Produce Co.

' HE very best way in which a 

 man can take care of his monej' 

 is to place it in a Savings Bank. 

 Then there is no occasion to wor- 

 ry for fear it will be lost, or spent 

 unwisely. It's not so easy to earn a 

 dollar as it is to spend it ; but every 

 dollar placed in a Savings Bank will 

 earn another if you give it time enough.

 Mail?" It is safe, convenient, and
