AUCTIONS. H. MATSON AND CO. THE STOCKOWNERS' TOE STOCKOWNERS' BEST FRIENDS BEST FRIENDS are CAPABLE, RELIABLE SALESMEN. CAPABLE, RELIABLE SALESMEN. YX7EEK after week at Addington, ** MATSON'S demonstrate the truth of that statement to CLIENTS. Through their consistently active, skilful, and determined work, they are constantly successful in obtaining the HIGHEST POSSIBLE VALUES. SIXTY-NINE years in the Stock Trade have put H. MATSON and CO. on the box-seat with regard to reducing the cost of handling their business. After all's said and done it is THE FARMER who pays. DETAIL is the item that is holding up the cost of production. If one makes a 6d purchase at a department store nowadays, a complete history of the transaction is written out in triplicate, checked by a dozen floor-walk-ers and clerks, signed and countersigned, entered into innumerable ledgers with various coloured inks, and then elaborately secreted in steel filing cabinets. And not content with all this superfluous extravagance, business men have created a large and expensive army of efficiency experts whose sole duty is to complicate and befuddle this system still further. . . . It's the same with everything else in modern life. Regard that insuperable mania called GOLF. It consists merely of knocking a ball into a hole with a stick. ' But the devotees of this pastime have developed a unique and distinctive livery in which to play it. They concentrate for twenty years on the correct angulation of their feet and the proper method of entwining their fingers about the stick. Moreover, in order to discuss the pseudointricacies of this popular sport, they've invented an outlandish vocabulary which is unintelligible even to an English scholar. But getting down to the Stock Trade, the PRICE PER HEAD makes the return for thd consignment, and owners can rest assured that full market value will be obtained by consigning SHEEP—LAMBS—CATTLE, and PIGS MATSON'S, MATSON'S, to ADDINGTON ADDINGTON FOR PRIVATE SALE SPRING CALVING HEIFERS.

It is very important that cows have a generous allowance of common salt if they are to remain healthy and produce profitably. Cows that are deprived entirely of salt for several months become unthrifty and out of condition, and if salt is not given them; will become paralysed and eventually die. Milking cows need a greater amount of salt than beef cattle or other kinds of cattle stock. A heavy milking cow milking from 40 to 501b of milk per day should have about 1J ounces of salt per day, or approximately 31b of salt per month. It is said that 10001b cows require soz of salt for maintenance only, and about an ounce of salt for each 501b of milk that they produce daily. . , . Neglecting to give salt, the milk cow will soon result in decreased production. It will also result in the animal getting out of condition. It is one of the most profitable supplements that can be added to the dairy cow's ration, and should never be neglected. "MOOKI SPRINGS LIXIT" is the •alt to use.
