St. Louis. — Our market is practically bare of ex- 

 tracted honey. The demand, however, is not very 

 great, but consignments will find ready sale on ar- 

 rival as iiuoted. The stock of comb honey is some- 

 what in excess of the very limited demand at the 

 present time. We quote fancy white comb honey 

 at 16 to 16^; No. 1. 15 to 15%; choice amber, 14 to 15; 

 dark, 10 to 11. Broken and leaking honey sells at 

 less. Extracted, white clover, in five-gallon cans, 

 is nominal at 9% to 10; California light amber, 8H to 

 9; Southern ditto in five-gallon cans, 8 to 854; In 

 barrels and half-barrels, 7 to 7%. Beeswax, prime, 

 brings 29; impure and inferior, less.

Chicago.— The comb-honey situation remains un- 

 changed at this writing. Trade is \ery dull, and 

 stocks in this city are more than ample to supply 

 the demand. It looks now as if there would not be 

 much more trading this season. However, extract- 

 ed honey is in very good demand, and very scarce; 

 and if any dealers or producers have any extracted 

 honey to offer we should be pleased to have them 

 communicate with us. We quote choice white 

 comb honey, 24-sectlon flat cases, glass fronts, 16 to 

 17; No. 1 white, 15 to 16; No. 2 white and light am- 

 ber, 14 to 15; buckwheat and other Inferior grades, 

 10 to 13; white extracted in 60-lb. cans, two cans to 

 the case, 9 to 10: light to medium amber, 8 to 9, 

 Bright pure beeswax is firm at 30 to 32.
