COMMERCIAL.
Argus Office, Tuesday afternoon. We have very little to report this week. The business done has been about the average amount, an equal demand existing for general goods. Loading from Dunedin is not plentiful, but there has been a number of teams in from Wakatip, all loaded with Robertson and Hallenstein’s flour and bran, the agents evidently laying iii a stock before the wool season commences, when all waggons will no doubt be engaged with back loading to Dunedin. The demand from Bendigo Gully and other districts has slightly increased, the residents in these districts preparing for Christmas, Quotations are as follow : Flour (Robertson & Hallenstein’a).—£l7 to £l9 per ton. Pollard do. do. £l3 per ton. Bran do. d®. 9 ~ Oats.—7s per bushel. Wheat.—7s per bushel. Chaff.—£7 per ton. Hay—£9 ~ „ Straw. —£7 ~ ~ Potatoes.—£B ~ Bread.—ls per 411} loaf. Butter.—2s per lb.
