(ii) For wheat sold in lots of 1 ton or more but less than 5 tons: 8d. per bushel.
(iii) For wheat sold in lots of ½ ton or more but less than 1 ton: 9d. per bushel.
(iv) For wheat sold in lots of two sacks or more but less than ½ ton: 11d. per bushel.
(v) For wheat sold in lots of one sack or more but less than two sacks: 1s. 1d. per bushel.
(vi) For wheat sold in lots of:
(a) ½ bushel or more but less than one sack: 1s. 9d. per bushel.

Provided that where a distributor sells any wheat to which this order applies on the basis of sacks included the amounts fixed in each of subparagraphs (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) hereof may be increased by 7½d. per bushel.

Provided, further, that with respect to all wheat sold in lots of one sack or more for delivery during the months of January, February, or March, and with respect to wheat sold at Dunedin and Invercargill for delivery during the month of April, the maximum price shall not exceed the appropriate price set out hereunder. Where, however, sales are made for delivery later than the months specified in this proviso the maximum prices shown in the table may be increased by amounts appropriate under the provisions of clause 11 (1) (d) of this order for each month after March or April as the case may be.

(2) The maximum prices fixed in the table to subclause (1) hereof are fixed for sales made on the basis of sacks included and where sales are made on the basis of sacks extra the said prices shall be reduced by 7½d. per bushel.

(3) Where delivery is effected by a distributor from a store situated elsewhere than on a railway siding at one of the places mentioned in the table to subclause (1) hereof he may add to the appropriate price fixed by the foregoing provisions of this clause the actual cartage charges incurred by him in obtaining delivery of the wheat into that store.

Retailers’ Prices

12. The maximum price that may be charged or received by any retailer for any wheat to which this order applies shall be the sum of the following amounts:
    (a) The cost of the wheat to the retailer at the point at which he takes delivery but not more in any case than the cost that would have been incurred had the retailer purchased the wheat in lots of ½ ton or more:
    (b) The amount of any transport charges incurred by the retailer in obtaining delivery of the wheat into his store, being not more in any case than the charges that would have been incurred had delivery been effected at common carrier rates:
    (c) An amount calculated at the rate per bushel as follows:
    (i) For wheat sold in sack lots: 1s. 3d. per bushel.
    (ii) For wheat sold in lots of ½ bushel or more but less than one sack: 2s. per bushel.
    (iii) For wheat sold in lots of less than ½ bushel: 2s. 9d. per bushel.

13. Where the prices fixed by this order do not include the price of the sacks, an additional charge may be made for the sacks not exceeding—

For 46-in. by 23-in. sacks .. .. .. .. .. s. d. 2 6
For 41-in. by 23-in. sacks .. .. .. .. .. .. 2 6
For 29-in. by 18-in. (sugar bags) .. .. .. .. 0 9

14. Subject to such conditions if any, as it thinks fit, the Tribunal on application by any distributor or retailer may authorise special prices in respect of any wheat to which this order applies where special circumstances exist or for any reason extraordinary charges (freight or otherwise) are incurred. Any authority given by the Tribunal under this clause may apply with respect to a specified lot or consignment of wheat or may relate generally to all wheat to which this order applies, sold by the distributor or retailer while the approval remains in force.
