DUNEDIN HORSE SALEYARDS.
Weekly Report. Messrs Weight, Stephenson, and Co. report KB foIIOWS J— ■ The entry of horses for our Saturday's sale was a small one, and comprised all descriptions. The demand to-day was again confined chiefly to draught horses, for which plenty of buyers were present, and when reasonable prices were asked sales were easily effected. Very few hacks were entered, and those that were were of the wrong sort to meet with much attention. We wish to draw attention to the sale of Messrs D. and J. Bacon's carriage pairs next Saturday. The horses were all imported from Australia and are without doubt one of the choicest lots ever offered in Dunedin. We quote:— For first-class draughts (extra heavy), £25 to £30 ; good ordinary draughts (young), £18 to £22 ; medium, £12 to £16 ; aged draughts, £6 to £10; good hacks and harness horses, £12 to £16; medium, £7 to £9; light and inferior, £2 10s to £5.
