THE CHRISTCHURCH MARKET.
CHRISTCHURCH, June 23,
There is fair local inquiry for wheat, especially bright samples, which are, however, difficult to obtain. Very little wheat is offering, and but few sales to record. What wheat is being purchased is for shipping purposes. A line of 800 bushels good Tuscan was bought at 2s Bd, and 1000 bushels of the same variety, slightly sprouted, for 2s 7d, at country stations. There is a very good inquiry for oats, but offerings are limited. Sales are recorded of 1000 bushels heavy Gartons at Is 81d, 200 bushels duns at Is 7d, 1200 bushels Danish at Is 5Jd ; also other lots of Gartons at Is 6d and Danish at Is 5d at country stations.
Oat-sheaf chaff is rather dull of sale, 57s 6d being offered, but sellers generally asking 60s-
Potatoes. — Prime Derwents arc bought at £5 10s at country stations.
