EASIER MARKET FOR OATS AND CHAFF
WHEAT MARKET FIRM Press Association - CHRISTCHURCH, Tuesday. | The Waipori is expected to leave LytI teltoa to-night for Auckland with about i 4,000 sacks of potatoes. Earlier expectaI tions were that the quantity would be ! much larger, but a good few of the lines were • cancelled out” between merchants. The Waipiata is now going direct from Timaru, and the Kaituna is booked to take Tuer place toward the end of the week. The market is very “sick,” and prompts are worth no more than £4 ss, while Octobers are freely available at £4 10s, f.0.b., s.i. Values to farmers are £3 2s Gd to £3 ss, on trucks. While other classes of produce are not moving freely, values are keeping firm. Danish cablegrams state that cocksfoot is quoted there at Is a lb., so that importation from that quarter is unlikely. Wheat is firm at recent quotations. Oats and chaff, as a result of the Australian rains and the prospect of orders closing from there, are easier in tone, particularly chaff, which is back to about £3 17s Gd on trucks. yr rfe ">%
