STOCK SALES

FURTHER FEILDING PRICES

The New Zealand Farmers' Co-op. Distributing Co., Ltd., reports that at the Feilding sale they submitted a heavy yarding of station cattle. Bidding was hardly as keen at auction as at late sales. Venders were, however, out to meet the market, and we made a total clearance. P.A. heifers and yearling steers were in demand, and these classes showed a slight rise on late rates'. Beef .was slightly easier. A small yarding of dairy stock was not in demapd. Fat sheep showed a rise of Is to Is 6d on last sale. Store lines of all classes sold freely.
