The offering are all station-bred straight lines in first hands on account of the above-named vendors. The cattle, will be without doubt the best lines of station-bred grown cattle which will come under the hammer this year, there being no coloured cattle whatever in the offering. The beef to be offered will be real tip-top quality, the balance of the offering being cattle suitable to go straight into the fattening paddock. The offering in sheep comprises straight-bred station Romney Cross lines, which we can confidently recommend to anyone on the lookout for sheep of this description. The 5-year-old ewes are a very high-class line of early shorn chisel-mouth sheep. The wethers will be early shorn sheep carrying a lot of condition and suitable for topping off. Mr. Ross’s Yards are within 5 miles of the railway and arrangements have been made with the Railway Department to have sufficient trucks on hand to get the stock away immediately after the Sale. Intending purchasers from either North or South will be met on the morning of the Sale at the “Gretna” Hotel, Taihape, at 5.30 a.m. or “King’s Court” Hotel, Ohakune, at 9 a.m. Northern buyers can arrive on the Wellington Express, reaching Ohakune at 4.30 in the morning, and leave again on the return journey on the Auckland Express at a quarter to ten that night. It will be necessary for Southern buyers to go as far as Ohakune the night previous to the Sale. We strongly recommend anyone in quest of either sheep or cattle to make a point of attending this fixture. As mentioned before, the whole offering will comprise something out of the ordinary in both sections. Refreshments can be obtained at the Sale. , „ Auctioneers selling in conjunction i WRIGHT, STEPHENSON & CO., LTD., and ABRAHAM & WILLIAMS, LIMITED. Al5l RURAL LAND FOR SALE.
