having transpired. With the exoeptlon of prime Tuscan, for which there la still a good demand, there Is lets Inquiry for all other descriptions of muling, doubtless doe to the fact that millers have In the meantime •eoored sufficient for (heir requirements daring the next few weeks at any rate. Parcels ceuM be placed for shipment, If in saltable condition, and at prices In sympathy with those rating at Home, bnt holders hiving an opinion that prices are more likely to harden, are not dig posed to quit at those lately current. Medium quality Is very difficult to plsoe at a satisfactory price. A moderately fair demand exists for fowls' wheat, bot prices demanded preclude very much being disposed of. We quote best Tuscan, 3s 4d to 3s sd; medium to god, 3* Id to 3i 3d; best red straw and velvet, 3i to 3a 2d; medium to good, 2a 8d to 2s 101; inferior to medium, 2i 3d to 2( 7d (ex store, sacks weighed in, terms}. Oats.—A moderately fair amount of business has been transacted during the past week on the basis of late reported quotations, bat, owing to the bulk of the consignments now coming forward being held for higher prices, it wonld be difficult to secure largo lines of either feed or milling except at an advance on prices lately current. The quantity of prime bright milling is very much short of what might reasonably be expected, considering the favorable season ; three-fourths of the samples presented show iigos of bring badly harvested. While a fair demand exists we have no improvement to note in values, which we give as before, viz.:—For Btont bright milling, Is 4Jd to Is sd; best short feed, la 3id to Is 4d; medium, Is 3d to Is 3Jd; inferior, Is to Is 2Jd (ex store, sacks extra). Birley.—The market for this cereal seems to be gradually getting weaker, and to effect sales now, nhtch is a matter of some difficulty, ridculously low prices have to be accepted, and no Indications of any Immediate improvement in the near future. There is no outlet for shipment at a price that wonld be of any satisfaction to the grower, and maltsters being fillcl np for the present there Is scarcely any business passing. We quote prime malting, 2s 6d to 2s 9d ; feed and milling, Is 6d to 2s 6d (ex store, saoks extra). Potatoes. —There la no Improvement to note In the position of the mirket. The supply is appirently ample for the demand, which continues mr.derat»ly fair. We quote best northern L2lss to L2 17* 6d ; southern, L2 5s to L2 153 per ton (aaokß weighed In). Dsiry Produce—There Is no fresh feature of any importance to be noted in the position of the mark«t. Shipments of cheese continue to be made both to London and Australia on a liberal scale, and ere long stocks will be rcduoed to a very email compass. Prime salt butter only commands aoy attention, and is easily disposed of at aboat Sd per lb ; medium to inferior can hardly be placed at any price. ABSTRACT OP SALES.
