ADDINGTON MARKET.

THE CONCLUSION. FAT SHEEP. , At the Addington yards yesterday the sale of fat sheep was continued | after THE SUN went to press. As re- ! corded, the big yarding of fat sheep met | with good competition. Though the sale was not much brisker than on the previous Wednesday the prices ranged higher on account of the improved quality of the sheep offered. A number of exceptionally good sheep were offered, and prices realised were fairly high. There was quite a lot of sheep sold at over 30/- per head and up to 44/- was given for wethers sold cm account of Mr T-.
