The second large shipment of Austrai lian wheat imported this month will be j on the water by the end of thk week. ' The Harbledown, carrying a little more than 300,000 bushels, will leave Geelong on Saturday for Auckland. She will discharge part of her cargo at Auckland, and will bring wheat to several ports further south. The arrival of the Harbledown closely follows that of another ship of the same company, the Harmanteh, which is also carrying a big cargo of wheat, at Wellington. The importations so far this season bring the total for the eeason to considerably more than 1,500,000 bushels. 1- In November alone approximately 500,000 bushels were imported, reflecting Canterbury's own poor season for wheat.
