SLUMP IN POTATOES
(By Telegraph.) (Special to "The Evening Post") AUCKLAND, This Day. Potatoes are selling at lower prices than for many years. Very little business is going through the merchants' stores, as most of the wholesale orders are supplied direct from the trucks at' Pukekohe, while city requirements are obtained very largely from the auction markets and also direct from suburban growers. Pukekche merchants - opened j the week with a substantial drop td Cs per.cwt, but even this.quotation failed to hold, and this morning os per cwt was quoted, less than half the price ruling at the same period last year.
