The Wheat Market.
(Peb Press Association.) Adelaide, This Day. A few deliveries of the new wheat crop have been made, the samples beibg good and well grown. The South Australian Register says the yield for the whole colony will be under the average estimates, placing it at four bushels an acre, as many crops had to be reaped for hay. The area reaped for grain is estimated at 1,800,000. This with four bushels an acre for the harvest will leave less than 1,000,000 bushels for the colony and her immediate customers, and any shipment for Europe will be out of the question. Sydney, .November 7. The feed and produce markets are strong and advancing all ronad. Chick wheat, 4s to 4s 3d.
