PEDIGREE STOCK SALE.
[llY TELEGRAPH. —OWN CORRESPONDENT. ] HAMILTON. Tuesday.
A sale of pedigree Friesian stock was held by the Matangi Friesian Farm Company to-day. There was a fair attendance, although the disorganisation of tho railway sorvices kept many buyers away. The prices roalised were in many cases below expectation, many of the buyers apparently wishing to secure pedigree stock at little more than grade stock prices. Tho total amount realised was £3227 3s 6d, there being 125 head of stock offered. The average price realised was £25 16s. Tho top price paid was for tho pedigree bull, Pririco Pietorjo of Bainsfield, which was purchased by Mr. E. C. Banks, of Matamata, for 120gns. The champion Cow. All Dutch Queen (10 years old), was sold to Mr. W. IF. Madill, of Auckland, for 105gns.
