DUNEDIN HORSE SALEYARDS.
Messrs Wright, Stephenson, aud Co. report as follows: — As was to be expected, after th& previous two days' sale, the entry for Siturday was small, and the quality very poor on the whole. The attendance was fairly good, and a few buyers were on hand, but as most of the horses forward were not of the class in request very little business resulted. A few farmers were in want of good plough mares, young and good free movers, fit to go into immediate work, and we could easily have placed half a 'dozen of. such if they h&d been in the yard. We quote: Superior young draught geldings, at from £50 to £55; estra good do (prize horses), £56 to £65; superior young draught mares, £60 to £75; medium draught mares and geldings, £30 to £45; aged do, £17 to £30; upstanding carriage horses, £25 to £35; well-matched carriage pairs, £80 to £300; strong spring-van horses, £30 to £35; milk-cart and butchers' order-cart horse 3, £20 to £28; light hack?, £10 to £18; extra good hacks, £20 to £30; weedy and ageds-hacks and harness horses, £5 to £8.
