any kind of pressure — everything loose 

 and poinforlable around it. Anything 

 tight is injurious. 



Incense and Disenrectant.— 



Save your peach-stones and uut-shells 

 for winter. Throw a handful on the tiro 

 in the evening and see how bright they 

 blaze and how fragrant they sineil. 

 Dried apple pearings thrown in the fire 

 or on a hot stove are a very incense of 

 sweetness for the house, beside being an 

 excellent disinfectant. 



Damp Cellars.— Now is the time 

 when the thoughtful house-keeper sees 

 religiously to it that not a nook or corner 

 of her cellar is damp or wet, because if 

 so not only will it rot all vegetation in 

 the cellar, but from it exhale such a 

 pestilence into the house that it will be 

 next to a miracle if one or more mem- 

 bers of the family do not become victims 

 to typhoid or material fevers before 

 spring, necessitating a big doctor's bill 

 which can just as well be avoided by care 

 and cleanliness. As all know, damp 

 surroundings are great encouragers of 

 rheumatisms, colds, coughs, and other 

 infirmities. Keep your cellar dry and 

 whitewasht.

The volume of business Is email, consider- 

 ing: the time of year. >Iany people are In the 

 cliy from country points, who h;ive brought 

 their honey wlth'ihem, and tlnd 11 difficult to 

 sell at these ijuotatlons. and lu many In- 

 stances accept less rather than not dispose . 

 of it. 



Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 30.— Fancy white,

 to 5c.; dark, 3^ to 4c. Beeswax, 20 to 25o. 



Demand tor all kinds of honey has been ex- 

 ceedlnjfly slow durlnfr t-epiember. Perhaps 

 because of a too liberal supply of fruit on the 

 market.

 tracted, white, 6 io6^4c. ; amber. 5 to 3Kc. 

 Beeswax, 27c. 



Comb honey Is in light receipt, particularly 

 the fancy grades, which is mostly sought for 

 on this market. Demand is GOOU. Beeswax 

 Is practically out 01 the market, the supply 

 being light and demand good at above price. 



Indianapolis, lud., Sep. 24.— Fancy white. 

 lltoi:ic.;No 1.9 to 10c. Extracted, white. 5 

 to 6c.: amber, 4 to DC. Beeswax, 25c. 



Condition of honey market remains un- 

 changed. Many producers have been holding

 plied.

 to 12c.; Nc. 1 white. 10-1 Ic: fancy amber, 9

 demand, 



Minneapolis, Minn., Sept. 24. — Fancy 

 white, 10 to llHc; fancy dark, 9 to 9?ic. 

 Extracted, white, i'i to 5!4c. 



Market well stucki with dark honey. Fancy 

 while clover finds good market at 10 to 1 1 VtC. 

 -possibly a fracilun more could be realized 

 on really fancy. We would not advise ship- 

 ments of dark comb or extracted at present. 



Albany. N. Y., Sept. 25.— Fancy white, 12 

 to 13c.; No. 1. 11 lo 12c. : t.incy amber, 9 to 

 10c. ; No. 1,8 10 9c ; fancy dark, 8 to 9c. ; No. 

 1. 7 to 8c. 



Comb honey Is arriving quite freelr and 

 moving off nicely at quotations. 



New York, TSt . Y., S-pt. 25.— Fancy white, 



12 to 13c.; fair white. 10 to lie ; bucKwheit, 

 8!4 to 9!^c. Extracted, California, white, 5 to

 and basswood. 5 to 5Wc, : buckwheat, 4 to 

 414c.; Southern, 48 to 50c. a gallon. Beeswax 

 Is quiet at 26c. 



Comb honey Is now arriving In large quan- 

 tities, and demand Is fair for all grades, prln- 

 clpiUy for fancy and No. 1 white and fancy 

 buckwheat. Kxtracted California Is selling 

 well, while others are neglected, especially 

 Southern in barrels and half barrels. 



Milwatikee, Wis., Sept. 24.— Fancy white. 

 12 10 13c.; No. 1,10 to lie ; fancy amber. 8 

 to 10c. Extracted, white, 5 to 6c.; amber. 

 4 l-2to5o. ; dark, 3 1-2 to 4 l-2c. Beeswax, 

 25 to 26c. 



The receipts of honey are very fair, and the 

 quality Improving. The supply is not large. 

 Demand is moderate, and tae prospects good 

 for fall trade. We are well eatisfled that It 

 pays shippers of honey 10 exercise much care 

 In putting up stock In nice, clean cases and 

 clean, well ordered sections, and new. clean 

 kegs and barrels tor the extracted. 



Cleveland, Ohio, Stpt. 27.— Fancy white, 

 13V4C.: No. 1, 13c ; fancy amber, lie; No. I, 

 10>4c. Extracted, white. 7c ; amber. 6c.; dark,

 No. 1, 7 ti 8c. ; fancy dark. 6 to 7e. ; No. 1 5 

 6c. Extracted, white, 5 to 6c.; amber. 4 to 

 4V4c.; dark, 3'/4 to 4c. Beeswax, 22 to 2Gc. 



Honey Is selling Just a little better, but we 

 advise moderate shipments till October and 

 November, when lltjeral amounts can be sold. 



San Francisco, Calif., Sept. 22.— White, 

 comb. 1-lbs.. 7 to9c-; amber comD. 4 to 6c. 

 Extracted, white, 4 to 4?io. ; light amber. 

 3!4 to 3=^c.; dark tuie. 19i to 2'ic. Beeswax, 

 fair to choice. 2 ; 10 24c. 



Prices remain at much the same low plane 

 as has been current during the greater part 

 of the past season, but stocks of extracted 

 are being steadily reduced, mainly on Euro- 

 pean account. Comb honey has been drag- 

 ging, but will probably meet with more cus- 

 roni In the near luture. There is no lack of 

 inrjulry for' beeswax, but the demand Is 

 mainly for export, and at figures named by 

 the buyer. 



Philadelphia, Pa., Sept 27.— Fancy white, 

 13/, to 14c ; No 1. 12c.: No. 1 amber. 10c. 

 Extracted, white. 5 to 6c.; amber, 4 to 5c.; 

 dark. 4c. Beeswax, 25c. 



Honey 1-i now moving freely, with arrivals 

 Bulficieut for the demand. 



St. Iionis, Mo., Auif. 9— Fancy white, 12 

 to VlVtc; No. 1, 11 to II !4c.; fancy amber. 10 

 tolOHc: No. 1. 9 to 9!4c. fancy dark, 8 to 

 8!4c.; No. 1,5 to 7c. Extracted, white, 3 to 

 oVic: amber, 4 to 4>4c. ; dark, 3>i to 4c. Bees- 

 wax, 24 to 241^0. 



The weather so far this season has been too 

 warm for the free movement of honey, but 

 with the present prices on sugar we think 

 there should be a good demand for extracted 

 honey at the above prices. One car of 2 1,000 

 pounds sold since our last quotation on basis 

 of above prices. Beeswax tinds ready sale at 

 2*c. lor prime, while choice stock brings a 

 little more. 



Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 25.— Fancy white. 

 13c.: No. 1. 11 to 12c.; fancy amber, 10 to 

 He; No. 1. 9 to lOc; fancy dark. 8 to 9c.;
