The paving will be commenced on Monday, and is expected to take two weeks. Work will be continuous. The gold-saving tables will be complete at approximately the same time as the paving of the tunnel. The water races are all finished to "saddle,” approximately 90 chains from penstock. Though the races are in fair order from the saddle to the penstock, the work to be done is by way of enlargement. It is intended to finish “ shires ” first. This will be completed in about two weeks. Sluicing will probably be carried out before the other race for this 90-chain stretch can be completed.

INVERCARGILL, August 5. GRAIN REPORT. The markets generaly speaking are somewhat lifeless, but with spring almost upon us a revival in so far as seeds are concerned can be expected. Oats for some little time have been lifeless, even inquiries being few and far between. For this reason nominal values can only be as given. “A ” grade quotation at 2s 2d, “ B’s ” Is lOd, f.0.b., s.i., with prime Duns at possibly 2s sd. The drop in importation of barley to the north may induce some movement in so far as oats are concerned. Ryegrass for machine-dressed seed is quoted between merchants as from 2s 6d for 27/281b seed, while 3s is asked tor heavy-weight machine-dressed seed in excess of 301 b. No interest whatever is shown in crested dogstail, in the entire absence of shipping and owing to the fact that the Irish crop is reported to bo particularly fine quality.
REDEMPTION LOAN AUCKLAND POWER BOARD. Formal steps preparatory to dealing with a loan of £224,500 at 4i per cent, which fell duo on March 31, 1933, were taken by the Auckland Electric Power Board on Monday. The loan was raised in London in 1914 by the Auckland City Council. A motion of which notice had previously been given by the chairman (Mr W. J. Holdsworth) was carried, stating that “the board hereby resolves by way of special order to raise the sum of £224,500 for the purpose of repaying a loan of that amount by the issue of debentures maturing on March 1, 1938. At a meeting of the board in committee on July 24 the chairman said he had recently been approached by the agent of a financier in connection with the raising of fresh money in London. The agent had said he was confident he could make satisfactory arrangements for a loan of approximately £105,000 for a term of five years, this being the amount required to complete arrangements in connection with the loan of £224,500 now due for repayment. In addition, the agent was prepared to deal with an amount of approximately £200,000, representing new money, for a term of, say, 21 years. If the board was prepared to give him a firm offer, he felt the amount could be raised at a rate of interest not exceeding 4J per cent, at par. These proposals were referred to a meeting of the board in committee. The general manager (Mr R. H. Bartley) mentioned that the board’s only reason for raising the loan in London was to save the 25 per cent, exchange.
BOBBY CALF TRADE A satisfactory season for the export of bobby calves is predicted this year (says the Dominion), as the animals are coming forward in good condition, and higher prices are offering. Killing operations are in progress at the four works in the province, but the peak of the season will not be reached until about the middle of August. Prices current ,for calves range from 2s 6d to 7s 6d, compared with an average price last year of about 2s. Apart from the better values in the meat market, the hides are now selling at a substantially higher figure. The low values for byproducts ruling last _ season accounted largely for the decline in exporters’ rates. A satisfactory feature of the trade is the money distributed in the province at a time when the farmers’ outgoings are heavy. It is estimated that the total killings last year wore about 250,000 calves. This number will probably be exceeded in the current season,- but on a 250,000 basis, at 4a a head, a distribution of £50,000 is involved. The money is widely distributed, _ the farmer, the carrier, and the railways all taking a share. The trade, which began about five years j ago, is now firmly established. There is a steady demand in Great Britain, where moat of the moat finds it way, while [ smaller supplies arc shipped to the Con- ; tinent.

WELLINGTON WOOLLEN COMPANY A reduction of £3OOB, or 16.38 per cent., to £15,348, in net profit for the year ended June 30, 1933, is shown in the accounts of the Wellington Woollen Manufacturing Company, Ltd. In their fiftieth annual report, the directors state that they are pleased to be able to show a result which, in this time of trying commercial conditions, should be considered satisfactory. The directors recommend that a further dividend of 2\ per cent, be paid on both preference and ordinary shares, making, with the interim dividend, 5 per cent, for the year, compared with 6 per cent, for the two preceding years. The dividend foe the year absorbs £15,000, and the balance of £3787 is to be carried forward. The directors state that the sum of £SOOO has been written off for depreciation of plant and buildings, which are always maintained efficiently and up-to-date from revenue.
COMMERCIAL BANK OF AUSTRALIA
The Commercial Bank of Australia, Ltd., had improved business during its year ended June 30. Profits advanced by £13,964 from £199,670 to £213,634. Ordinary dividend at an unchanged rate of 5 per cent, absorbs £IOO,OOO. The dividend on the 4 per cent, preference shares requires £84,694. A sum of £20,000 —against £IO,OOO the previous year—is placed to reduction of premises account, and the balance £8940 added to £70,311, brought forward, provides £79,251 to be carried forward. Dividends are in Australian currency. The increase in business is shown in an addition of £645,627 to deposits, and of £888,604 to advances, together with a holding of bills receivable in London greater by £560,876. Cash items are lower by £356,610. The item, money at call and short notice in London, disappears. More use has been found for the money in Australia than in London, where the rates of interest for call and short call are extremely low. Also, Commonwealth Treasury bills in London are not now held, and this accounts for at least part of £252,141 reduction in the item “British war loan stock, etc.” Holdings of Australian and New Zealand treasury bills are £682,248 lower, but Government and local Government securities have increased by £605,029. THE TRADE OUTLOOK “Never baa there been a moment when it was more difficult to discern amidst the confusion of contemporary events the main trend and tendency of trade,” remarked Mr J. O. M. Clark, chairman of J. and P. Coats, Ltd., cotton thread manufacturers. “People who are well placed to judge tell me that there are visible signs which suggest that business as a whole has now entered upon an ascending curve. I hope this is so, although our own figures as far as the present year has gone do not bear it out. Recovery is, in my opinion, certain to be slow, and there are sure to be very considerable fluctuations. These matters lie outside the ambit of our control. The most that we can achieve is to meet as efficiently as w e may each emergency as it arises, and constantly to endeavour to better the organisation of the company. By this means alone can we hope to secure that when prosperity returns we shall be in the best possible position to avail ourselves fully of our opportunities.”
