FEILDING SALE.

. The Associated Auctioneers report as follows on Friday's Feilding sale:— A heavy yarding of 10,000 store sheep came forward comprised mostly of lambs, a good ■ proportion of which were in very good order, and for these top lambs the market was fully maintained on previous sales. The medium lambs still seem to be very good buying for those who can hold them through, while the cull lamb market was on a par. •In the fat sheep eca good yarding of wethers and ewes came forward and sold with values hardly up to late rates. .A good yarding of beef met with a firm market while the small yarding of run cattle and oddments were if anything in buyer's favour. Boner cows again met with a good sale.
