Now that the seed business is over the market has declined and during the week several lines have Ikh'ji sold Jtt from 2s S<d to 2s S.Jdi on trucks at sidings. The high priee for feed oaw is restricting s;«!es a'.l buyers ar« not liuying iiioir than ,' i-y can possibly help. It is ij.iitc ;.; able that prices will again adi-uiK-;' '.(fore Chmtmam but this (ic|K'ii■!< to extent on the Australian market which is at present keeping the North Island going at prices much lower than Southern oat*. Chaff.—There is a fair demand for prime quality which is being sold at up to £4 2s fid on trucks at sidings. Thw is more than equivalent to liunedin prices ex truck and it is evident that some buyers have confidence in the future of the chaff market. There is a very large quantity of chaff available in this district. i'ota.tods.—Offerings are heavy i«t L'2, but merchants will n.>t operate. A. few choice liix'.s have b: n sold at thin price but. the supply c feeds the demand, and unless a stro.' .,'. shipping (kr \ ma no sets in prices will not improve.
