CHRISTCHURCH PRODUCE.

MB UNITED PEES 9 ABSOCUTIOH' CHRISTCHURCH, July 21. There is no demand Tor wheat at the present time, large millers being wel stacked tip and importations of Australian Hour prevent a::y speculation it; grain, even though it is doubtful i 1 this last season's crop will be nearly sufficient for requirements. There is little improvement in the jwisition as regards oats. Those whr liave made shipments to the Vnitei Kindoin do not expect ui fs to be mane by the Utaki o West of Kngland potts. Some luisi ess is being done in oats by .Soulliliml with the .Melbourne market. The tone of the potato' market is even weaker than it xras last week. Kuycrs are holding oil' ei.nipleiely and until a demand again sets in from Auckland no improvement is expected, (.rowers are holding out for £'2 10s ill country stations, but eien at L2 it would'be difficult to 11ml buyers for any quantity. Little bus'imvs has been done in seed for spring sowing, bui the, season lor this business has barely opened yet.
