A good deal of wheat is being delivered out of condition anc there have been more than the usual number Of rejections. The fowl wheat market is at a standstill at present with only a very small amount of business passing. The small seeds market remains unaltered. Ryegrass is still irm as confirmation is received 0 damage done to southern crops. Cocksfoot from the plains is being delivered steadily, but little has as yet appeared from the Peninsula. Peninsula seed has been offered, but the sample so far is not attractive. Potatoes are slow and the price now is about £2/15/- a ton on trucks. Main crop onions are beginning to appear, and the price has eased to about £5/10/- on trucks.
