WOOL PRICES ARE STILL CLIMBING: DUNEDIN RECORD
DUNEDIN, This Day (P.A.).— Climbing wool prices took another sharp step upwards at the crutchings sale at Dunedin today when the top price of 70jd for crutchings eclipsed the New Zealand record set at Invercargill last Friday. The highest price paid at the sale was 88d for a bin lot of cross bred fleece wool. Prices all round advanced a fraction on Invercargill and set a new record for Dunedin, being almost treble those paid at last year’s sale. The catalogue of 5472 bales included the first fine wool crutchings offered this season and prices were well above expectations. A small entry of fleece wool lots showed a substantial advance in price compared with last season.
