The Company’s arrangements for the season of 1884 1885 will be a* complete aa in former year*, for holding regular auction sales of wool in Wellington. Wool growers will thus continue to have the choice of two markets, as in the event of owners* reserves not being realized, the Company offers the alternative course of shipment to London. The Company’s Warehouses, Custom-house Quay, were erected expressly for the storage and display of Wool, and are admirably adapted for that purpose. All parcels of Wool committed to tho Company's care for locvl sale, are, on receipt, examined and valued by thoroughly competent persons, farmers* lots receiving the samo atteuti >n as larger clips. No lots are sold at bolow the reserves fixed by consignors, and in cases where such instructions are not furnished the Company's valuation is adopted as a reserve. The face of the Company acting as selling broker only, is a guaiautec that clients’interests are protected. The same efficient attention as in the past will be given to the shipment and realization in the English market of Wool and all descriptions of Produce, snd : communications thereon addressed to the Company’s Agents will be promptly dealt with. The following figures shew the total quantity of Wool handled by the Company last season on behalf of its constituents, viz:— Bales.
