(Per Press Association)
WELLINGTON, August 11
In tli9 past few days there, lias been an appreciable drop in wheat, and flour, imd^hore are likely to be further reductions in tho opinion of those able to gaiK-;? the prospects. The Prime Mih:.KUs<\' irecently had a census .taken of all tho wheat in the country. It was cathered from merchants, millers and farmers, and the result of ■ this showed that there was sufficient in New Zealand until the nest harvest. The new season's harvest is generally available in tho middle of February, but it is necessary that there should be a "carry over' 1 supply. This wheat census is the firat taken in New Zealand for a very long time. Altogether, the outlook is by no moans bad, considering that crops in America and elsewhore havo been good.
