TO THE PAKEHAS AND MAORIES RESIDENT ON THE COAST OF NEW ZEALAND.
This is to inform all who may see this, that we have resolved not to purchase the kind of wheat known at Turanga as "African" and at other places as "Humpback" also to caution the European traders against buying this wheat, as it is a very bad kind and is not saleable in this or any other market. We desire also to inform the Maories, that unless they assist us in oar endeavours to bring into the market wheat more free from cbafl and •mat, and to produce a better sample than that hitherto grown, we shall be obliged to reduce the price per bushel, which will be regulated by the quality of the wheat. We think that when our Maori friends see this, ibej will endeavour to aid us in carrying out our views by procuring good seed, either from Adelaide orHobart Town. The princi • ■pal thing is to procure good seed; by this means a better yield will be obtained, the producer will tie enriched, .and von will be relieved from the pressure of these bard times.
