THE ONION COMBINE.
> „ ' 1 CIIRISTCHUROH NOT AFFECTED. i • > [BY TELEGRAPH.— ASSOCIATION.] ! Christchubch, Tuesday. ; Thk 1 reported onion combine in the North ] has not- affected the local market. There , are still email. lots of locally-grown coming forward, and consignments of Japanese and Victorian have been received. The former cost £11 ss, and, the latter £10, landed, while the usual price, for Cali- ; . fornia is £12 to £14 per ton. . In view of the lower price of Victorian, it does not appear as if the reported combine can be of long duration. A considerable quan- . tity of onions ie required in Auckland and i Wellington for shipping purposes, and pro- ) bably more are required for local cons.iunp- . tion than in Chrictchurch, whew other vegetables are more plentiful.
