CANTERBURY PRODUCE.
FOWL WHEAT SCARCE. CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday. The potato market showed no change during the week, values being £6 5/ a ton, f.0.b., sacks included, for whites, with on truck values £5 5/. Dakotas are meeting with a healthier demand at £6 15/, f.0.b., sacks included, and £5 15/ on trucks. The Wingatui, which sailed on Wednesday, took a total cargo of 7390 sacks from both ports, 2290 from Timaru, and 5100 from Lyttelton. A fair quantity of the local shipment was from stove. The cargo will amply supply Auckland needs in the meantime, and inquiry from the north is restricted. A scarcity of fowl wheat is causing a very firm market in that commodity, quotations being 5/ to 5/1, f.0.b., sacks excluded. Lyttelton oats are in small supplj' and southern importations are being made for 6eed. Chaff is unchanged at £3 10/-A> toiMQjJ!»ttacka- ,
