PRODUCE IN CANTERBURY.
(By Telegraph—Press Association.)
CHRISTCHURCH, December 3. The grain and produce markets remain very quiet and no great amount of business is expected from now till the New Year, for which prospects appear to be good. Stocks of most lines are now reasonable. Most of the stores have been employed recently in stocktaking and clearing, up for the wool season. ■ There is an excellent demand for chart, which is not being offered freely. Those farmers who have it are holding and in the meantime the price is about £4 5s a ton on trucks. Oats are meeting a steady inquiry, with no alteration in prices. Algerians for sowing for green feed are in strong request and are worth up to 3s on trucks. Small seeds remain quiet. There is. a fair inquiry, but holders axe unwilling to make price concessions and the demand has not become strong enough yet to raise prices.
