KAURI GUM MARKET.
The following are our quotations of kauri gum for the week ending October 14, 1901: —White gum: I'oor ordinary, £27 and upwards : fair ordinary, £47 and upwards; bold three-quarter scraped, free from nuts, £74 and upwards; East Coast, best quality, £70 and upwards; re-scraped, £115 and upwards. Black gum: Nuts, sifted, £10 and upwards; medium, free from sugar, £13 and upwards; good, £43 and upwards. Remarks on market: Supplies for 14 days of October, 305 tons. The demand for gum is fairly good, but not pressing, so tho rather increased supply keeps the market very quiet.

There was a fair entry of store cattle, but little or no business was done, vendors' reserves being too high for buyers. Best dairy cows. £6 to £8; others, £3 to £6. Fat sheep (4000) were mostly unfinished sorts and a very largo proportion merinos. Freezing buyers were not keen, and prices were easier for all sorts except extra prime merino wethers.

Fat lambs (80) were all taken by local buyers. Best, 14s to 17s; others, lis 6d to 13s. Store sheep were a mixed yarding of 1310. Owing to the dry weather and scarcity of feed there were very few buyers, and two-thirds of the entry were passed in. Wethers, good, 15s; lioegets, 12s 7d; and ewes with lambs, 7s 7(1 to Bs. all counted. In pigs (400), fats were easier, and stores very dull of sale.
