WOOL SALES.

Messrs Dos.u.n Kkii> and Co. report :—We h our third sale of the season at the Oddfellows Hall, KuUray street, Dmiediu, on Thursday, the 2-Sth inst. The full complement of buyers \va. attendance, and a large gathering of wi growers, farmers, and others interested in the sales. There was again a good demand for well- • grown light tine halfbrcd wool, and also for lonjjstuplcd line merino wool light in the grease, ai these qualities realised prices quite equal to tho obtained at our second sale. Hound well-got-: halfbred and crossbred \yoojs, although not craite so brisk demand, made prices nearly equa to tho.se ruling at our laet sale; Imt all coarse crossbred, halfbred, and second-ria^s merino won's, and all eavthy and stained wools, were very hard to quit, and to elfect sales at these sorts a concession of from 3d to Id per lb on rates lately ruling had to lie made. Altogether, the salt: must be described as si dull one, and, except for tiie very liuest wools, bidding was exceedingly «low and irregular throughout. Our catalogue comprised 1 -|i>N bales, of which 1174 bales were sold •>t auction, and 2:H bales were passed, bidding not having reached valuations.

There was a largo attendance, of buyers and a good gathering of growers. The totiil offered by the various agents was something over Sd.'lO bales. Of this we catalogued 1002 bales. These -sales were quiet compared with the last series hold three weeks ago, and prices on the whole were a little low, more especially for low class crossbreds and average merinos. Tlie latter seems to have suiFered most by the recent fulls in the London market, and are correspondingly low here ; indeed never has jnerino been so low before. Bidding was very irregular throughout, and buyers were careless about operating for anything but extra line, bright halfbreds ; this sold at k\ below last sale, others showing a greater reduction. There is no doubt growers have become careless as regards the regularity of tlioiv clips, and on the whole crossbreds have deteriorated to some extent, probably through over-anxiety to breed size of carcass without due consideration to quality of wool. This is an important branch of the farmers' and breeders' business, and it is to be hoped more attention will be given to careful breeding. Another point which requires careful attention is j.roper classilication. To quote an American buyer's own words, lip says : " 1 could buy any lot, however small, if the lialfljveils ami crossbreds were kept separate, but as some lots are got up at present I have to pass them by unvalued." I "nder the hammer and privately we sold 844 bales, and quote as follows .--Fine light halfbred ild to I'M, extra do do 10.'.d to lUil, medium do 7iid to S{il, fine crossbred 7-jd to lOd, heavy do and coarse (3d to 71(1, choice merino (special lots) Sd to !)J.l, extra do do !Ud to 10id, ordinary merino 5.Jd to t 7.1. crossbred pieces ud to Sd, merino 4d to sid, loclcs Ud to !?:|d, Some of the highest prices are as follows : —]'.

" Messrs Stroxacm l'.uos. AM) Moltuis report as Hows :-\Ve held owv third wool sale of the season on Kriday, 2!>th inst., at Oddfellows' Hall, llattray street. Catalogues were larger than at previous sales, over 7(100 bales being offered comprising considerable parcels of station merino, for which the demand was very slack. A decline in ''allies for all heavy conditioned, earthy wools was noticeable —for Id to Id per lb for heavy merino being submitted to—while coarse, heavy crossbreds and three-quarter-breds may be quoted id below rates lately ruling. Fine, light, and clean wools were well competed for at prices nut on a par with those of last sales. Advices >m London of sales on the 2tith inst. were of a seouraging nature, and local! sales will no doubt compare favourably those at Home when further articular* reach us. The attendance of buyers ;as good. Growers' reserves wove not in all cases cached, several lines being passed in for shipment or private disposal.

Jlessrs William E. Hey.noi.ds am) Co., Stafford street, report as follows :—\Ya held our second sale to-day in the Oddfellows' Hall, Hattray street, before a very largo attendance of buyers and others interested in the trade, and were successful in quitting nearly every lot at satisfactory prices. The buyers showed a distinct keenness to operate at our sale, and bidding was sharp and keen throughout, resulting in outselling the 90 odd lots of which our catalogue was comprised in a quarter of an hour, thus clearly indicating that the doing away with the delivery charge of Is (id per bale meets with their entire approval. Regarding prices, it might be said that the finer sorts of lialfbred, light in grease, have not declined, some having sold to-day as high as llijd. All other descriptions of crossbred, however, may be said to have receded in value from -Id told per lb; while merino, except for specially line and light, has suffered to the extent of Id to Id per lb. Locks and pieces, considering relative values, went off very well indeed, and were in most cases secured by our local buyers. We quote exceptionally lino light halfbred lOd to 12d ; good do do, Sid to lOd ; crossbred, light in grease, Sd to Sid; do coarse and heavy, (i.'.d to 73d ; merino, light and choice, 71 d to !)d ; good ordinary, (ild to 7d ; inferior and heavy, fi'd to (id, while two special lots sold as high as'lUld.
