Early in the week September deliveries were up to £7 17s 6d. They receded to £7 ss, but on Wednesday night had climbed again to £B. To-day they are back to £7 10s. October deliveries moved in sympathy, but not to the same extent. They had reached £9, there being a sale or two over that figure, and to-day they are quoted at £8 15s. The stocks going north are small, the Waipiata taking only 400 fifom Lyttelton in addition to 1200 from Timaru. The Wingatui will sail about the 26th, and so far she will be the final boat this month. There was some expectation of an inquiry from Otago to replace tubers sold to Auckland during the high prices, but so far it has not materialised. Inquiry from coastal districts in the North Island is also restricted. No other line of produce is attracting much interest except wheat. Consesequent on the Wheat Board’s decision to export a quantity of the surplus, the pool pice is 6s sdf .0.b., for Tuscan. A Garton oats are quoted at 3s 9d to 3s lOd, and B’s 3s Bd, but the market is quiet. Seeds are being distributed in farmers' lots. Prices are unchanged. The market for peas shows no improvement, home inquiry being entirely absent. The nominal value is 5s -to 6s 2d, f.0.b.. s.i., or about 4s 4d, op trucks. Chaff is worth £6 10s a ton, £,o.b v s.i.
