GRAIN AND PRODUCE
CANTERBURY MARKETS. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, January 27. The Canterbury grain and produce markets have not been very active this week, and there have been few changes in quotations. Samples of wheat that have come in have shown the same good quality as earlier ones, but they are still confined practically to North Canterbury crops. Threshing was interrupted by showers of rain this week, but it ought to be in full swing in a week or so.
. The oats sample continues to be excellent, but merchants are not finding it easy to quit their stocks. A Gartons are quoted at 2s 6d and B’s at 2s 4d. Further lots of ryegrass have come on the market but they have nearly all been very disappointing, showing the same low germination as earlier samples. A few lots of plains cocksfoot have been offering at 6d, but it will be two or three weeks yet before the Akaroa seed is on the market in any quantity.
