THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
PUBLISHERS’ NOTICES. 
A Weekly Newspaper is one of the needs of 
every family; and one or National character end 
reputation is worth more than half a dozen of the 
ordinary hind. Such is the Cincinnati Weekly 
Times, Published In t e central section or the 
Union, It represents more i ruly the Interests of 
all sections and classes, than those Issued from 
the extreme East or Suit h. Us Editorials, Corre¬ 
spondence, News and Market Reports are llrst- 
class all the lime. Persons seeking Homes In the 
West will find In It much reliable information on 
this subject. We will be pleased to receive sub¬ 
scriptions tor the Tubs wli h the Rural, one year 
each, at the low rate of $3.25. 
Wk contldenlly refer our readers to the card of 
Dr. C. It. Sykes, in our Issue of Nov. 9. Mr. P. W. 
Jones of the Chicago Farmers’ Review says: “ Dr. 
Sykes Is an old resident of Chicago, a regular 
graduate, honest, honorable and responsible, and 
as a physician takes hist rank In his chosen 
specialty of catarrh and Its complications."

During the week busin< ss has been at a pause, hi 
consequent;*) of local political excitement, anil val¬ 
ues nuve been, to a considerable extent nominal. 
Improved weather and waul of stock have latterly 
brought out u batter utteuuanue ot buyers, and 
prices, lor soruo ur tides, already show Hirnuess.

Butter.- Pine state indicates considerable whole¬ 
some strength In price*, and trade Is steady with 
fairly frno sales. The most prominent advance for 
the week is in high grade dairy pulls and extra fresh 
half mbs, now rated 22(a.24o. Some of the latter 
would sell up to creamery if sellers would submit to 
the separation of tops from lines. A good many 
little linos arrive at this season and they help out 
the single package trade, so wholesale buyers tri l he 
present baldness of the market have to carry their 
share of the longer line*. Choice full dairies can be 
readily sold at 2U'<«2lc.; occasionally 22c.; but, as be-
