BEESWAX WANTED. 



Till further notice we will pay 28 cts. cash, 30 cts. 

 in trade, for average wax, delivered here. 



SWEET-CLOVER SEED. 



We are still prepared to furnish sweet-clover seed 

 of the various kinds we have been advertising at 

 the prices last quoted. We are also arranging for 

 seed of this season's crop, and shall be pleased to 

 hear from those who are prepared to gather seed to 

 sell, especially the yellow biennial and the white 

 hulled seed. 



SECOND-HAND CANS. 



We still have a good supply of good second-hand 

 cans free from rust on the Inside, and fairly bright 

 outside. They would make an excellent container 

 for dark or ofT grades of honey. We do not recom- 

 mend any thing short of new cans for choice white 

 honey. These cans are a bargain at S'XOO for 10 box- 

 es of 2 cans each; ^25.00 per 100 boxes; 50 boxes at ItiO 

 rate. 



HONEY WANTED. 



We are now in the market for a good grade of 

 white honey suitable for our trade. Send us a sam- 

 ple with your name attached to package for identi- 

 fication. Write us at the same time, telling us 

 from what source the honey was gathered, when 

 you extracted it, and in what kind of package it is 

 put; also if you are ready to ship it at once, or at 

 what time you will be ready to ship it. Mention 

 the price per pound that you want for it, delivered 

 on cars at your nearest railroad station. We can 

 use any amount, from a (iO-lb. can or a small bar- 

 rel, to several carloads, and from any place pro- 

 duced, provided the honey is light and does not 

 have a too pronounced flavor. 



BALING-TAGS. 



In the manufacture of sections we produce a great 

 many small pieces of the thickness and width of 

 sections finislied smooth, about 2 to 254 inches long. 

 We have been furnishing these to men In this vi- 

 cinity, who bale up hay and straw, to vise as tags in 

 marking the weight of the bale. Because they are 

 a waste product we can furnish them very much 

 cheaper than they could be made to order. Our 

 price at present is SH.OO per barrel, and a barrel con- 

 tains approximately 10,000 pieces, making them 

 cost about 30 cts. ))er 1000. We can furnish more 

 than we have been selling, and should be pleased to 

 hear from any one with orders. Call your hay-bal- 

 ers' ftttention to this. 



BUCKWHEAT SEED. 



We have sold out our stock of Japanese buck- 

 wheat, but have secured a further supply at an in- 

 creased price. We have also located some lots in 

 other parts of the country from which we can make 

 shipments. We will furnish from here either sil- 

 verhull or Japanese b.v freight, bags included, not 

 prepaid. Peck, 50 cts.; 54 bu., 85 cts.; one bu., S:i.40; 

 two bu., |'2.50. We can also ship from Dexter, Mo., 

 in lots of one bushel or more, at the same rate. 

 This is good recleaned seed, but not guaranteed 

 pure Japanese. Subject to previous sale, there is 

 also some Japanese available at Hoosick Falls, N. 

 Y. Ten-bushel lots from either place, bags extra, at 

 Sl.lO per bushel.
