GRAIN AND PRODUCE
CANTERBURY MARKETS. BUSINESS STEADY BUT QUIET. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, April 14. Business in small seeds in Canterbury has been steady but quiet since Easter, with few alterations in prices. The demand for the North Island has eased off. A few samples of red clover have come to hand and the quality generally has been very good. The price to growers is 7d to 8d a lb. Brown top is now being harvested and the indications are for a fairly good yield. The market opened firm but quietened in the last day or two when it became apparent that the crop was larger than was at first thought. Prices to growers for machine-dressed seed are Is 3d for certified and Is Id to Is 2d for uncertified. Trading in other produce has been steady, with prices unchanged.
