The attendance was good and there was more inclination on the part of those present to purchase, so t]gpt the bnlk of the stock yarded changed hands before leaving the yarda. We quote: 2to 3-year steers £3 3s to £4 7s, 12 to 18-months mixed £118s 6d to £2 7s 6d, springers and 1 in calf £3 8s to £5 l'ss. At our Hawera stocs: sale held on Wednesday, the l'tth. inst., not quite all our i advertised entry of cattle came in, which, was the more to be regretted, as we bad | several buyers present who had come from I a distance in the hope of purchasing stock. * The cattle being of good quality were : nearly all sold, as we're also the two or three lines of sheep entered.
