TIMARU WOOL SALES
BT TELEGRAPH —PRESS ASSOCIATION. TIMARU, Dec. 2. At the first wool sale of the season to-day 8371 hales were offered, and 7245 sold. American buying was bar^ red, but large orders for the Army enabled Home buyers to compete freely for all suitable wools. Owing to the dry weather and high winds some of the wool was vei-y earthy, but a number of clips were bright and attractive. The brokers report that prices, as compared with the recent Christchurch sales, receded from £d for low-grade crossbreds to Id on medium half-breds and bright three-quarter breds and fine crossbreds, while bellies, pieces, and, locks showed no decline. :_
