"many thanks. a visit from you to encourage ' wheat-growing would do a world of good. the dunedin millers appear perturbed about the wheat outlook, but i think they are crying out about their own folly. 'i fail to comprehend, if they are so sorely pressed, why ■About . 900 tons flour should have been shipped' to auckland from southern portsdunedln included-dur-in.g the last ten days, as there is no scarcity of flour in auckland; yet ■ they state it exists in dunedin and further ' south. my company confines itself to auckland REQUIREMENTS, BUT IT IS OBVIOUS THE SOUTHERNERS ARE ANXIOUS TO KEEP UP THE OLD TRUST TACTICS, AND HAVE BEEN CAUGHT. NO ONE WILL CONVINCE ■ ME THAT FROM FOUR TO FIVE MILLION BUSHELS OF WHEAT HAVE BEEN SOLD IN TWO AND A-HALF MONTHS, ROUGHLY VALUED AT ONE AND ■ A-HALF MILLIONS STERLING. OUR ABSENT TROOPS WILL, REDUCE ' THE WHEAT CONSUMPTION ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND BUSHELS. SPECULATORS CANNOT BUY, AND THE MILLERS ARE NOT SO WEALTHY AS TO FINANCE IT IT IS APPARENT THE ' FARMERS ARE HOLDING BACK FOR THE FIXED MAY 4ND JUNE ADVANCE OF HALFPENNY PER BUSHEL, . , AND PROBABLY MORE. ANTICIPATING A SHORTAGE ABOUT OCTOBER OR NOVEMBER (IF THEN).. KIND REGAEDS' "P. VIRTUE, I MGR. N.R.M. CO." 28th APRIL, 1917. ~~ BOHAN'S TEA ~ CANNOT FAIL TO PLEASE!
