Bright Tone in Market

Activity in Mining

THE market on ’Change continues to register a very healthy tone, and trading is spread over a fairly wide range. One of the features of the past 24 hours is the increased activity in mining.

A. further advance is registered in . New Zealand Insurances, sales taking place in the call room at 475. This represents an advance of 4s since the writer commented favourably on the scrip in August last, and a rise of Ss 6d over the year. Sales were put through at this date last year at 38s 6d. South British scrip has eased slightly, to see business at 63s 9d, but there is still a healthy demand. A very firm demand continues to be registered for loan and agency scrip, with few sellers prepared to make a declaration. A seller of New Zealand Guarantee Corporations was in at midday at 8s lOd, with a steady buyer at 8s 7d. Dalgety’s are very firm, with no sellers. Coals have a slightly firmer tone, the trouble at the Glen Afton mine not having had any effect on the market for scrip in other Waikato concerns. Steady buyers are in for most, listed shares, with sellers harder to locate. * * • The timber group is particularly dull and depressed, with buyers right off the market, and sellers quoting nominal figures for only three concerns. The publication of the lower returns of Leyland-O’Brions, a company recognised as one of the soundest i*i the

. business, has undoubtedly had a fur- | tlier bearing on the market. * * * Increased life has been shown in the j mining section over the past 24 hours, and, considering the times, there has been a fairly big turnover in the shares of certain of the more stable concerns. Waihis are very firm, several sales taking place at 13s 6d. Ohinemuris have also improved to see business at 7s 3d.

N. MARKETS REVIEWED FAT PIGS HARD TO QUIT j By K.W.C. Late rates were fully maintained at the principal New Zealand stock selling centres yesterday. On account of carnival week no sale was held at Addington. The aggregate yarding of beef at Westfield was about 100 below that of last week. Prices were firm, choice quality young beef meeting with a keen demand. Top price ol the day was paid by the Auckland Meat Co. for heavy prime big-framed bullocks on account W. H. Kelland, Waipipi. The best pen made £l9. O. vendors with \\% 11 finished lines forward included C. G. Robertson (Otaua), B. Reed (Waerenga), 11. A. Robertson (Mangere), John Mclntyre (Puni), Trewin Bros. (Marehemu), W. L. Short (Matamata). A choice quality line of young steers on acount F. Vosper, Cambridge, went to R. and W. llellaby, Ltd., for £l6 17s 6d. The best line in the cow and neifer section came forward on account of a Waikato vendor, exceptionally choice prime Shorthorn heifers, going to D. Brideson, Epsom, for £l4 12s 6d. / A heavy yarding of calves saw wellfinished sorts meet with a steady demand. The market for inferior-fin-ished sorts, however, especially toward the close, was decidedly easier.

Sheep Market Firm Each week now sees the percentage of shorn sheep yarded in the Westfield yards becoming smaller. Yesterday the greater part of the offering was made up of medium-weight shorn wethers. Over-fat old ewes were not in very great demand, and some pens were passed in at prices Is to Is 6d a head below late rates. Prime young sheep met with a keen demand at late rates. Big-framed specially well-done wethers on account the Towers Estate, Matamata, topped the shorn wether market, one pen going to A. W. Scotting, St. Heliers, for 38s 3d. Another good line of heavy prime shorn wethers on account W. K. Peachy, Coromandel, made 37s 6d. Choice prime medium-weight wethers, on account Morris Harding, made 33s 3d. Woolly ewes made to 40s. A line of heavy prime woolly wethers on account of a local vendor went to R. & W. Hellaby for 44s 6d. A heavy yarding of pigs saw stores meet with a fairly free sale. Fats, however, were hard to quit, and prices were again easier. Stortford Lodge Market At the weekly sale at Stortford Lodge (Hastings) yesterday, there was a good yarding of fat cattle, but a small offering of store cattle and sheep. Prices for cattle were on a par with last week’s. The sheep market was easier.

Demand Keen at Johnsonville In the Johnsonville (Wellington) saleyards yesterday, the sheep penned comprised mostly ewes, a greater proportion being shorn. The cattle were of good quality, comprising mediumweight bullocks, with a few pens of lighter-weight sorts. The cows offered were heavy and in good condition. A good sale of all classes of stock resulted, prices for sheep being on a par with last week’s rates, woolly ewes, if anything, being slightly easier. The lambs submitted were of good quality cattle were on a par with late rates, and a keen sale resulted.

BALANCE OF TRADE AUSTRALIAN IMPORTS SHOW HEAVY DROP STILL EXCEED EXPORTS (United P.A. — By Telegraph — Copyright) (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) Reed. 9.5 a.m. SYDNEY, To-day. Imports into Australia for the quarter ended September 30 showed a-heavy drop of £9,464,000 to £32,412,000. The imports, however, still exceeded the exports by £9,733,000. Produce was sent out of the country totalling £22,667,000, or a drop of £3,296,000, compared with ‘figures a year ago. The chief exporting period, it is pointed out, is from October to May, when the wool goes abroad, and it is expected that the leeway will be made up.

COLONIAL SUGAR CO.

TO PAY DIVIDEND OF 12| PER CENT. J CHAIRMAN REVIEWS YEAR (United P.A. —By Telegraph — Copyright) SYDNEY, Wednesday. The report by the directors of the Colonial Sugar Company for the halfyear ended September 30 was adopted at the meeting of the company to-day. The report states that the profits for the period from the Australian mills and and from other investments subject to Federal income tax, after providing for depreciation and other charges, amounted to £259,172. The earnings in New Zealand and Fiji and from other investments not subject to Federal income tax were £209,984. From the total of £ 469,156 the board proposed to pay a dividend of 20s and a bonus of 5s a share, absorbing £365,625, and leaving £103,531. The addition of the latter amount to the balance of the profit and loss account at March 31, £365,853, made £469,384’ from which the board proposed to place to reserve £IOO,OOO, leaving to the credit of the profit and loss account £369,384. DROUGHT AFFECTS CROPS The report stated that in Queensland rainfall had been deficient singe July, affecting the crop, which was now being cut adversely. Some Fiji districts had enough spring rain; others were suffering from drought. There had been no interruption of work at the refineries. Some changes in plant were being effected which it was hoped would result in economies in working. The chairman, Mr. E. W. Knox, in the adoption of the report, said the output of the mills for the current season was expected to tofal 2,382,000 tons. Since August the weekly production had been a record. The company was now making about one hundredth of the world’s sugar yield. Continuing, Mr. Knox said Fiji cane for the 1929 season had not thriven, and shortage of labour precluded extension of cultivation. New South Wales showed no sign of improvement in supplies to the mills, but the Queensland crop was promising well. The loss in the process of manufacture had been reduced, but the cost remained high, the reason being the price of coal, which was twice to thrice the level of 15 years ago. TAXATION BURDEN # There had been some disturbance in the European sugar market through the grant of preferential duties for Empire sugar refined in Britain. The ultimate results of this were not apparent, but the first effects were certainly of advantage to raw sugar producers in the colonies. The Queensland exportable surplus had been sold to British refiners, though at a price 30s a ton less than in 1927. Since the last meeting the price of the company’s shares had advanced from £SB 2s 6d to £63 15s, but this wrought no satisfaction to the proprietor who meant to hold his investment. Mr. Knox added that the company was faced with the prospect of increased income taxation in States in which it had factories and also in New Zealand and Fiji, in all of which the tendency was to claim too large a proportion of local earnings for taxation. A special general meeting confirmed the resolution passed on September 28 making amendments to the deed of settlement.
