HARVEST RESULTS.

The crops appear to be turning" out well up Wairavapa w.y. The Star cays : - Threshing is m full Bwing m the Saniion district. Mr W. Brookie, who ha* a huge amount of threshing to do for that district, informs the Advocate that he hasalieudy pur through his machine 20,000 buxhe's. During last week, for five days and three-quarters he threshed out 6500 bushels. Mr JJrookio also states that so far the yield m that dis trict represents for wheat thirty and forty bushels to the acre. About 19,000 bushels of wheat have been threshed this season m South Wairarapa. The average yield is estimated at near'y thirty bushels to the acre. Oa's have given good results, but have been mostly cut into chaff.

CHRISICHURCH GRAIN AND PRO DUCE MARKET.

JFress. During the paßt few days local millers have purchased a fair quantity of wheat. Prices itiU Bhow a hardening tendency, and growers are not so willing to accept the prices offered as they were last week. W heal is now beginning to come into store m Ohristcburoh. A few small sales of oats have taken place to fill local requirements, »nd growers are asking 2s 2d to 2« 3d at country stations. Barley shows further evidences of weakening, as buyers are only operating to a limited extent. A fairly large quantity of cookafoob is changing hands, and the bulk of the ryegrasa crop is now believed te be m second hands. The following are current prioea paid to farmers, f.0.b., Lyttelbon, for direct ship ment from country stations and free of com mission, exoept where otherwise specified :— Old Wheat— Good to prime quality pearl 4s 3d to 4s 4d, Tuscan 4s 2i to 4s 3d, Hunter's 4s to 4s Id, second quality wheat about 3d lower.

ASHBURTON STOCK MARKET.

Mr D. Thomas reports upon the live stock market m the Ashburton County for the week ending March 9. On Tuesday at the Sinwald yards the usual weekly sale was held.

The entry of stock at this fixture was the largest this season, made up of several lines of breed ing ewes and two-tooth wethers from south, also two large lines of the Anama and Cold- Btroam eweß. The Anama merino ewea were disposed of at aotion for 3s 9d, and were considered a nibble to the purchaser, bub other ewes were hard to quit. Very few lambs were yarded, and those m forward condition were readily picked up, but* in ferior lots Buffered a drop of 6d on the pre vious sale held at Tinwald. The butchers' pens were fully supplied and a number of pens were knocked down to graziers, and eeveral lots were passed out.

ADDINGTON STOCK MARKET.

Christchtjroh, March 9 There were large yardings m all depart ments at the Addingtoa Stock Market, and the attendance was good and a representative one, Business throughout the day waa not very keen but was fairly brisk. The en tries for the day comprised 17,537 sheep and lambs, 506 head of oattle, and 518 pigs. Fat Cattlb.— The 185 head of fat cattle which formed the week's supply of beef was of a mixed character, containing two or three extra prime sorts and some very in ferior stuff. Anything really prime met keen competition, but other sorts were hard to quit, and accordingly there was a dull sale* Two show beasts were as good as any thing seen m the yaid for a long time and commanded considerable attention, a three year-old steer fetching £12, and a heifer £10 10s. The general run of steers brought £4 5s to £8 10a, heifers £3 15a to £6, cowe, £2 17s 6d to £4 15s. Per lOOlbs, prime beef ran 14s to 16s, good 12a 6d to 13s 63, cow and inferior down to 10a. Stoke Cattle. — A large entry but little competition and only a few changed hands at prices scarcely satisfactory to growers. Fat Sheep.— A good yarding, there being a few good lines of freezers, and one or two 'exhibition consignments as well as a fair proportion of good young trade ewes. The sale throughout was animated, the presence ' of a new buyer for the local trade making things lively for any tning extra prime, and all good sheep showed an improvement on late sales. A pen of halfbred Southdown wethers, bred by Mr ,S. Garforth, 30a a piece, and another pen from the same owner, Southdowns, changed hands at 26a. Freezing wethers brought lla to 13a 6d, mixed sexes 10a to 12?, batchers' beßt cross bred ewes 9s to 10s 6d, medium 7s to Bs, and aged 4s 6d to 6a. Fat Lambs. — The pens were fairly well filled, and there were several nice quality lines, which were eagerly sought after by exporters, A line of 250 from Sir John f Hall's Hororata estate was taken for freezing at 10s Bd, and an extra good pen of Mr 8. Garforth's southdowns made 11s 9J. Good freezing lambs may be quoted at from 9* to 10s Bd, butchers' from 7s to 83 9J; and more backward sorts from 63. Store Sheep. — About 8000 of an entry, including some nice straight lines of for ward wethers and breeding ewes. Although there was no improvement m prices, the eale showed more animation than has been the case for the past week or two, and the bulk changed hands. The dry weather, however, still continue? to militate agaiust values, and it was evident that speculator*, do not care to operate until more rain has fallen. 500 two and four-tooih wetherß from the Mount Torlesse estate, brought 7* lOd to 83 Id, and 115 two and four-tooth ewes from the same estnte from 6b lid to 7s 6d. A line of nearly 1000 good large framed wethers from Kaikoura brought from 9s 9J to 10* ; a line of 548 wethers from Port Levy from 9s to 93 4d ; 120 maiden ewes 8a 81 ; 500 two-tooth ewe 363 4d ; 400 four, fix, aud eight-tooth ewes bi 4il ; backward wethers from 63 to 7s 6d ; sound mouthed ewes 4s to 5s 6d ; aged 2a 6d to 43 6.1 ; boilfrß from lOd to Is lid ; and lambs from 2s 6dt063 9d. Pigs. — There was a very good entry of pigs, the bulk stores. Fats included some very good lines and competition for all classes was keen. Pr ces showed a further advance and baooners brought from 39 i to Co 655, a line of fourteen fetching 63a 6d ; porkers 24* 6d to 39a ; Btores 13s 6d to 25s and op bo 393 for some extra large ; weaners 7» to 12m.

A VICTIM OF Functional Disease. A 1 q yii m NWVER * aila an y ona in xxidJVUlll a predicament!. To tufferere from Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Biliousness and Constipation it is "A friend m need and a friend indeed." Assist Nature by Alaxhm, and you will avoid a multitude of distressing functional derangements and diseases. Of all known medicines for renew- ing the energy Alaxum is the best. Its secondary effects are marvellous. Many persons afflicted with constipation havetesti* Bed not only to its immediate relieving properties but to the faot that the cure lasts. No care is required while using it. It does nob interfere with the diet, habits or occu- pation, and produces no inoonvehience m its aotion. It is at once a laxative, an appetiser, and a stimulating tonic, prepared scientifically, and endorsed by the Press as the most valuable medicine that has ever been offered to to the public m a} popular form. ALAXUM CUBBS Biliousness, Bilious Headache, Dizziness, Costiveness, Sour Stomach, Loss of Appetite, Coated Tongue, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Heartburn, Pains and Distress after Eating, and all functional derangements of the 'system of nutrition. NOTE THIS WELL,- The whole syatem of a human being may be perfectly sound, and yet through derange- ment or weakness the organs of the boay may perform cheir functions or their work sluggishly, thus giving rise to want of appetite, and a consequent general impover- ishment of the whole being. Such a con- dition causes thousands of people to fancy that they are consumptive, while they are really only m need of a remedy to set the organs of the body working harmoniously. Reason points to two essential qualities m a remedy for this purpose. It must create an appetite for food, and at the same time assimilate its nutriment. With either of these qualities alone the remedy would be worse than useless, but with both it becomes a power with incalculable good. Alaxum is the only medicine which combines these two qualities. It is a natural appetiser, and its first action is to create hunger. After the appetite is satisfied it acts directly on the stomach, liver and kidneys, clearing away all effete matter and exciting them to activity. The system then receives nutri- tion and new life from the proper assimila tioQ of the food ; and where there is no organic disease health must follow. This is common sense and cannot be gainsaid. Accept no substitute that may be recom- mended to be "juat as goqd.^ It may be better — for the dealer — because of its better profit, but m such an instsnoe the dealer is not the one who needs help. 1 PROM ALL CHEMISTS & STORE- KEEPERS, PRIOE 2s 6d THE*FIRST SIGN OF A COLD Should remind you that the besb time to commence taking something is at, the begin- ning.

To Spenoer Vincent, Chris tchurch, Dear Sir, — For some time past I have lieou Buffering from a most painful cough. I had quite given up hope of its ever leaving me, at least or the remainder of the winter, and feared that it had become chronio, seeing that other remedies failed to give me relief, much less cure. The pain became so intense that I was afraid of injuring my throat and head, especially the latter. I prooured one bottle of your Benjamin Gum, and I may say that I hadn't an atom of i faith m its curative properties, bufc felb thab £ I muab take something to ease the pain. I drank contents of first bottle very freely, - and am thankful to Bay m less than twelve hours I was wholly freß from cough. P.S.— Nearly three monthi sjaot cough

Awarded diploma at the Ama 1 erdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics and Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract m the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUOAL\ PTI EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medioal division of the Prussian Government 0 be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we tate :— It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Sohulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dn Moßsier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of da resinous and other substanooß, adherent to I primary distillation, will develope the I sanative qualities proper to the plant' All crude oils, or so oalled Eucalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpentines, which are abandoned long sinoe as an nternal adicament. These crude oils, or so oalled Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible : 1 By their deficiency m pungent odour — which our product, the only genuine Euoalypti Extract develops most freely through its surplus oxygen. By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear- ance being reduced m specific density through the presence of acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resins and tennates. If these crude oils, so-called eucalypt extracts, are applied by mistake m cases of oroup, bronohitiß, diphtheria, internal nflamations, dysentery, etc., the con- sequences are most appalling.
