AUCTIONS. Ji. MATSON AND CO. PH E JOY OF CREA TI 0 .V. The lr»e man live» in order that ho may make; He does not mike In order tbat ho m»y Hre. We all lovo making things, and the life which creates nothing is empty. When .1 poet •r n politician talks of his ambition for immortality, often it M not that he desires merely to win tho prai6n of generations Mill ;in!n:rn, hut that he wishes to have thiit proof of his power of creation. What drives him Is not the desire for praise but the desire i-n create. We are not satisfied with a creation that lasts only for a day. Some men go thwarted all their lives of th* chance of making something: some have to jet th"ir satisfaction upon some little art of creation in their spare time. Because of distaste and reMrirtion the working day has cone past without any real profit to them: they have merely made in ordor that t'r.<-y might live. Only in the remnants of !h»ir timo have they lived to make. These are the real ra->ees of the imhappines6 which deeper than economics. IT 13 NOT A BRASS PLATE ON THE DOOR THAT MAKES A BUSINESS, BUT THE PERSONALITY - AND GOOD WORK OF THE OOOUPANT. >'OR PEST RESULTS OONSIG.V ALL STOf'K TO MATSON'S, ADDINGTON. In H. Matson and Co. (here is happiness because there is everywhere tho spirit of creation. We are all working together in trying to create the best firm in the trade. In a country like Now Zealand it is no easy task at this date to raise higher the ideal of service and to bring reality nearer to the ideal. That is a work of creation that demands tho best that is in all of us here. Hut so p;reat n measure of achievement has already been granted to us that we have even the pleasure of being able to watch tho material embodiment of our creation. Seldom has there been a time in the last eighteen years when we have not had this But what we am creating is something greater than a building, however fine. It is a widespread Organisation by means of which we bring the best information from all parts of the world and place it here at the disposal of the people of Canterbury who have come to know us and trust us. Tho warp and woof of H. Matson and Co. is the spirit of service and the spirit of confidence. Daily we weave new designs, and there is no member of our firm who cannot »dd to the whole fabric. >

For our sale on October 17th we offered a catalogue of 5963 bales, representative of a u , l<,o ,. area °' the State - Notable amongst the districts represented were Moree, Barraba,( the Upper Hunter, Riverina, Lachlan, and central-west. The offerings included a number of attractive, well-grown wools of liood quality, also a proportion, particularly from the westorn and Riverina districts, carrying more or less burr and dust. There was also a fair showing' of comeback and fine crossbred.wools, most of which, however, showed burr and dust to some extent. EVERY SHEPHERD should have an outfit, comprising small set of Dagging Shears, aluminium bottle with a screw-top for lysol or an antiseptic of any kind. Used often on the run the life of many a sheep has been saved that has been blown by flies, or required dagging or had other accidents. DO NOT BE WITHOUT ONE; IT IS ESSENTIAL. , ■ H. MATSON and 00. can supply.. Competition throughout was animated and well sustained, and the general tone of tli» market was distinctly more encouraging than at our previous sale on tho 6th instant. Trance, Japan, Germany, and Yorkshire supplied the bulk of the competition, the Japanese section proving particularly keen operators on average wool and burry and dusty descriptions. Tho bulk of the finer wools was secured by French buyers, while the German section took a big proportion of brokens and pieces, also burry fleece wools. Yorkshire is buying with more freedom than at the earlier valoj, and the support from that quarter is not fully revealed by their purchases alone, as even where their limits are beaten by their competitors, their bidding i« a very valuable assistance. Good support Is available from America on suitable lines, and an' expansion of purchases for that country seems assured as_ the offerings become more suitable for its 'requirements. Just at present, well-grown, stylish merino wools showing freedom from burr, such as America specialises in, aro relatively scarce. A welcome feature at our sale was tho activity of one of the local mills on superior fleece wools. They purchased the first nine lots of an attractive, woll-grown clip from the. Hunter Valley at prices ranging from 26d to 29Jd. The demand for skirtings remains as keen as ever, and such descriptions arc still relatively deßrer than fleece wools. Undoubtedly the prices reali«(»d for brokens, pieces, and other lower d*»criptions are to a large extent, responsible for the excellent average per bale which is being realised at the present time TO CORN GROWERS.

Comebacks and fine crossbreds continue fo realise remunerative figures, and it is no uncommon occurrence in the esse of clips consisting partly of merino and partly of comeback or fine crossbred, for the latter to realise prices equal to, or very little inferior to, those forthcoming for the merino. This, of conrse. is partly due to the comparative scarcity of these wools in the .Sydney market. H. JIATSOX rad CO,
