Fat cattle showed a further decline; young store sheep gold up to last week's, rates, but aged and lowconditioned sorts were easier. There was an easier tone in the lamb market, and fat ewes showed a declirto. Pigs were dull of tale, especially stores, and thero was a good demand for stoic and dairy cattle. STORE SHEEP. There was a large yarding of store sheep, but mostly ot a poor class. There was a fair demand Tor good young sheep, hut other descriptions were down about 1& per head. There were I some fairly large lines cf ewes and lambs, but the ewea showed the effects of the shortage ot Iced.

FAT LAMBS. There was an entry of -IGI7 fat lambs or double last week's total, including a good proportion of prime quality, but at the came time there were a large 'number of -unfinished lots. Several of the export buyers were operating on reduced limits of price, as the prospective value in Ixmdon docs not warrant tho rates that have lately ruied here The competition was therefore
not keen to*' export, though the butchers operated rather moro freely, i;.s lamb is more suitable for the trade during the present hot weather.
