The greater portion cf the entry shoved tile siyM of the Kflsoo f being somewhat backward in condition. Attractive lots in many case* were somewhat email, and reviewing tie market aa a who.o the catalogue was about on the basis 01 the previous week as regards quality, with the exception that there was a much larger percentage of crossbred and long-wool lambs offering, and these undoubtedly were readily snapped* up. AS the sale progressed the attendance increased, and we are of the opinion that from start to finish the enquiry wai» on all fours with the previous week. Best lambs sold anywhere from 23a to 255, a few exhibition lots perhaps a shade higher. Ewe lamb# were keenly enquired for throughout. The B grade of lambs were sellin** anywhere from round aboat 18a to 22f1. The demand for lamb* for holding over Was responsible for keeping a steady rate for the O grade offerings, and these sold anywhere from 16s to 17s. Culls sold from 12s to 15s 6d. . The market was consistent throughout, and practically all lota were scld under the hammer. ADULT SHEEP—There was a heavy entry in this Section, and according to our estimate the entry comprised 10,400, of which you might say by far the greatest portion were shipped consignments. The attendance wis email, and it would not appear, with the exception of one or two who wanted yottng North Island ewes, thai the buying- power was ready to make purchases of adult sheep. Good two-tooth halfbred, ft very attractive line, sold exceedingly well at 44s 6d; crossbred two-tooths sold from 30a for small ones, and mixed wools and fair exhibits up to «Se; •bc-tootll ewee from 31s to 365; eight-tooth ewes from 25s to 82s The above price, with, tne exception of the two-tooth halfbreds, represented mostly North Island Sales. Local ewes sold, as four and five-year-old g°od-condition ewes were selling anywhere, from 18s to 355, one or two extra lota selling up to 28s 6d. There appeared to be a fair number of withdrawals, and a fair portion of the attendance beyond watching the seem to be Interested in making purchases The bMia of prices was somewhere round about all lours with the previous? week, hut apparently a greater portion of *ke e nfery had their values regulated by reserve®, and ifenisssSr 15? r-ss&'.'sS " Results consign STOCK TO H.
