BURNSIDE STOCK SALE

FAT CATTLE VALUES FALL Fat Cattle A very large yarding of fat cattle, numbering 432 head, came forward for yesterday's Burnside stock sale. Included in the entry were three to four trucks of prime heavy bullocks, the bulk oeing comprised of medium grades, with a larger proportion of cows and heifers than usual. Although there were some specially good cows and heifers penned, the larger number, however, consisted of medium to light sorts. The market opened with a slack demand at a reduction of 25s per head xor all prime quality animals which attracted the best demand, while other classes suffered to the extent of 30s to 40s per head on the average compared with last sale’s rates. Towards the close of the auction a further easing tendency was noticeable. Quotations: Prime heavy bullocks, to £2O 12s 6d; prime, £l4 10s to £l6; medium, £lO 15s to £l2 ss; light, from £8 10s; prime heavy cows and heifers, to £l2 17s 6d; prime, £9 5s to £lO 7s 6d; medium, £5 12s 6d to £7 2s 6d; light, from £4 7s 6d.

Fat Sheep Ewes of all grades featured in a very large yarding, numbering approximately 3300, There was a minimum entry of good butchers' ewes, the bulk consisting of medium and freezing classes. There were several trucks of prime wethers yarded with a fair representation of young sheep and a good sprinkling of fine woplled descriptions. The sale opened with prices showing a decline of generally 2s compared with last week’s rates, but the entry, being in excess of requirements, a further easing tendency set in about midway through the sale and at tire close showed a further drop of 18d on opening rates, with sales being difficult to effect at this stage. Quota-, tions: —Prime heavy wethers to 26s 6d.' prime 21s 6d to 23s 6d, medium 18s 6d to 20s, light from 15s, prime heavy young ewes to 20s, prime 16s 6d to 18s 6d, medium lls 6d to 13S, light from 7s 6d.
