CANTERBURY PRODUCE.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) CHRISTC'HURCH, Saturday. With the approach of the holidays the grain and produce market is attracting practically no interest. The market for chaff, which had improved sharply as a result of the dry weather, has eased, due to the rains that have fallen in North Otago, from which quarter the recent demand was strongest. Yesterday's quotation was £4 15/ on trucks. At the prices quoted there is not much business doing. There has been a little business in potatoes at £5 5/ to £5 7/6, f.0.b., 5.1., a ton. The effect of the present rain on small seed crops is occasioning some concern, but with an improvement in the, weather prospects are generally regarded as satisfactory.
