DUNEDIN PRODUCE REPORTS.

Wheat.— Values much the same as last week. Millers are open to buy choice velvet — indeed any sort— if well srown and in prime milling condition ; velvet, however, has the most inquiry. Medium milling is more difficult to place, and commands only a trifle more than fowls' feed prices. At the present moment the quantity of wheat held in store for disposal, compared with previous seasons is exceptionally light. Quotations : For prime, milling velvet 2s lOd to 2s lid ; medium to good ditto and best Tuscan 2s Brt to 2s 9d ; medium to good red wheat 2s 5d to tis &1 ; iuferior to good whole fowls' v/heat 2s to 2s 4d (ex store, sacks weighed in, terms). Oats. — Only a very moderate demand exists for the bulk of the oats offering. Buyers do not feel disposed to give the prices lately quoted, | except on rare occasions and for particular purposes. The most of the sales now effected, especially medium quality, are at slightly lower price. 0 . At the same time, holders of really' good lines likely to keep good are not disposed to quit just yet, even at a substantial advance.
