and distinctly below last year, and growers should fcako this into consideration, when comparing last season's prices. Last year boom values were obtained, and in consequence present ruling prices suffer by comparison. The American money market has eased somewhat, and this probably accounts for the better tone in the market, and on the whole the sale appears to have been a satisfactory one.

So much has been written in recent y«ars by certain interested Sheep Dip Manufacturers of the- number of prizes, etc., etc., won by sheep dipped in their preparations that flodk-owners may reasonably feel perplexed as to tho position occupied in the estimation of the pastoral community by the many ofchor brands of sheep dips now on. the market. The following facts will, therefore, be interesting—viz.: At the sheep show above referred to—the greatest of its kind in the world —45 per cent., or nearly one-half, of the prize-money awarded was won. (by QuibeU-dipped sheep; 14 per-cent, -was awarded to sheep on "which no dip at all had been used, thus leaving the balance of tine prize-money—i.e., 41 per con.t.—to be drviMed up between tho users of all other dips combined—some GO or more in number.
