Two good shipments of white pine are being loaded this week at the Greymouth wharf. The Kartigi is taking 850,000 superficial feet to Melbourne and Adelaide, and this, with 170,000 feet loaded at Bluff, brings her cargo to over one million feet. The Kalingo is due over the week-end, and she will place 1,100,000 feet of timber for Sydney. The timber trade is fairly steady, and it is expected that there will be sufficient orders from Australia, to warrant loadings of about two million feet each month. Two further timber boats are expected about the middle of June, one to load for Melbourne and the other for Sydney and Newcastle. The months of May, June and July are regarded as the slack months in the trade. Merchants state that this season’s trade has been up to the average of past years. The New Zealand business, however, is apparently, more at a standstill than ever, there being practically no building operations in the country.
