WOOL PROSPECTS.
BRIGHT IN CHRISTCHURCH.
FIRST SALE NEXT WEEK,
j Indications are that wool prices will "pretty good," stated a leading Christchurch expert to a representative of the "Star-Sun." He added that the wool was now pouring into the stores in preparation for the first Christchurch sale on December 12. This was due to the fine weather and the fact that farmers wished to beat the possibility ol any lowering of the-exchange rate and take advantage of the existing market. The bulk of the wool now being opened up was jn good condition, he added, but tliero was a little which was rather dusty and discoloured owing to ] turnip feeding last autumn. Very little wool liad yet arrived in store, but the i liogget wool was, in tlie main, bright and well grown. According to this expert, the market had not been really tested out by the North Island sales, but the prospects were bright.
