MONDAY'S PRODUCE REPORT.
(BY OUR COSTMERCIAL EDITOB.) Wβ have not heard of any sales of special moment to-day, the lots on offer having been of no great importance. Some samples of rather thin Hunter* were being shown, and holders were seeking 3s Id to 3s lid country stations, but buyers are only prepared to operate at 3s for these descriptions. Oats are just a trifle firmer, there having been a rather better enquiry daring the past week. From Is 10<l to Is 10£ d f.o.b. appears to be the current values. Oatsheaf Chaff is* quiet, and the demand has eased off, so that present value remains nominal at 42s 6d to 45s country stations. Barley is rather flat, excepting for prime qualities, which are rather scarce, and are realising 3s 8d to 3s 9d f.o.b. Cocksfoot is also quieter, but renewed activity is looked for in the course of another month or six weeks. Ryegrass —Any good clean heavy seed is readily saleable at 3s to 3a 3d, country stations. The bulk of what is offering, however, does not answer to this des. cription. Onions are in demand, and £4, country stations, is being offered. Cape Barley and Rye Cobn are still wanted, but the demand will probably soon cease.
