BURNSIDE STOCK SALE

RISE IN CATTLE PRICES FAT CATTLE A small entry for yesterday's sale numbered 205. - This included two trucks of extra prime bullocks from the north, but the bulk of the entry comprised medium quality bullocks, with the usual percentage of cows and heifers. On account of the short supply, there was a general improvement in values. The sale opened with good competition at prices showing an appreciation of from 15s to 20s in excess of the previous market for all classes, and continued on this basis until near the conclusion, when an easing tendency was noticeable. Quotations were:—Extra prime heavy bullocks to £2l 17s Cd, prime heavy £l6 7s 6d to £lB 7s 6d, medium £l3 2s 6d to £ls 2s 6d, light and unfinished down to £8 7s 6d, extra prime show heifers to £l7 10s, extra prime heavy cows and heifers up to £l3 17s 6d. prime cowj and heifers £lO 17s 6d to £l2 7s 6d, medium cows and heifers £8 17s 6d to £9 17s 6d, light down to £5 7s 6d.
