CANTERBURY MARKETS. (BT OUB COMMERCIAL EDITOR.) Tuesday Evening. The week-end saw some unwonted excitement in the wheat market, and prices offered by millers were generally too unattractive to lead to business. Other operators were offering up to 7s 7d on trucks for Tuscan and Hunters, as against the millers' prices of 7s 3d and 7s 5d f.o.b. This represented a difference of 4d to 6d a bushel, and several substantial lines were purchased at the top figure. The beginning of the week cables, however, recorded n drop in the Chicago market, and an easing in England of 6d to 2s a quarter. It is also understood that Sydney quotations have eased from 7a 5d to 7s Id a bushel. The sudden drop seems to have had no more justification than the sudden rise, but it has had the effect of stimulating offerings of farmers to local millers. A good deal of wheat has been sold this past two days at the millers' quoted prices. The game is too risky a one for farmers to take a hand in, and the disposition is to take current offers. Yields so far are turning out better than expected. Algerian oats are still coming forward in large quantities, and sales are difficult. Gartons have been threshed in a number of cases and offered, and some good yields are recorded. Values show no change. • The potato crop in the Ladbrooks district has been considerably affected on the heavier land by the excess of wet weather. The tubers have rotted in a number of fields, and where 10 to 15 tons per acre were promised some of the crops are being ploughed in. One excellent field of 15 acres will have less than a 25 per cent. crop. There is no change to quote in the week-end values of seeds, etc. The following are nominal quotations, free of commissions, sacks extra, except where otherwise stated: —
