Chicago.— HoHeiy.— The demand for honey is very 

 small; in faci, the trade is almost at a standstill. 

 The Hue weather xhat we are having' may in part 

 account for this, but we are of the opinion that peo- 

 ple ate I'elusing to buy very raucii along- what is 

 considered the luxury line. We still g-et; 15e for 

 fancy while comb when sales are made, and lU@13c 

 for the darker grades. Extracted ranges at from 

 6 to t) and 7, according tt) the tlavor, quality, and 

 color. Beeswax quiet at 3ac.

Owing to the unexpected demand, niy original 

 stock of these plants was nearly all sold. In 

 order to supply the demand I paid down §100.00 

 in cash and one dozen plants to be released 

 from the contract to supply one of my first cus- 

 tomers, who had ordered 2000 ])lants. These I 

 will now offer at $1.00 per plant, or §10.(X) per 

 dozen, until sold. Descriptive circulars will be 

 sent upon application to
