WOOL, GRAIN, AND SEED REPORT.
Messrs Wii.lum E. Reynolds ANn Co., Stafford street, report for the week ending 27th November 1805 :- Wheat r<maiiiß much the same as when last renovling, and there is do biHne« doiug. Prime milling is worth 4s Id to 4s 2d ; red sorts, 4s. Cvts opuned a little firmer this weuk, but have p.ised back again, but we expect to see them harden up ere long. We cannot say that we &cc mm h prospect of auy material rise, although it is probable there may be. Inquiries from outside ports are not coming in as freely as we would like to see. We quote to-day : Prime milling, 2a 3Jd ; prime feed, 232 3 25 d to 2i 3d ; good sound, 2s SJd to 2i 2}d. Chaff has advanced heavily, aud has keen inquiry. Wo quoted to-day: Prime, £4 10s; good, £4 5s to £1 7s 6d. Potatoss aro ii little easier, but we think will lirni aga : n ere long. Best, £2 15s ; Rood. £2 10s to £2 12s I'd. Needs are moving off aluwly, and very little demand holds out. Turnips are also rather slow of tale, as this season is now practically over. Wool.— The Chiistchuich sale 3 opened only fairly well, and to the sanguine did not prove any too batisfactoiy Certainly the class of wool offered was not equal to last year's offerings — being both candy and heavy. There is a decided advance on last season's November Sale, but it is ha>d to arrive at the extent of the same. We think we are not far wrong in stating % I to Jd per lb. It is impossible ' to predict at the moment, but we fully expect keen competition at our sales ond look for an advance of somo description. Later on we may be in a better position to offer a definite opinion. Skins.— We have had to postpone our fortnightly pals until Tuesday, Ihe 3rd inst , owing to our yearly balance taking plies this week and a rush of bu-iness. We will hold a large sale on the above date, and further conaiguinents willhave every care.
