GRAIN AND PRODUCE
CANTERBURY MARKETS. NO PRICE CHANGES. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, February 3. There have been no price changes in the Canterbury grain and produce markets this week. Threshing is more widespread now, and wheat is coming in well The quality continues to be excellent, but the yields so far reported vary considerably some being very low and others unusually high. The general opinion is that the yield may be very slightly lower than last season’s. The oats sample continues to be very good, but little if any improvement has been shown in further samples of ryegrass which have reached the market. Plains cocksfoot is still offering at 6d. but none of the Akaroa seed is in yet. Akaroa growers may find this season’s prices disappointing, as merchants are still holding fair quantities of seed from last season.
