COMMERCIAL.
Messrs Abraham and Williams report : At Palmerston on Thursday we had but small entries of both sheep and cattle, had weather stopping several lines from coming forward. There was considerably more animation in the market than we have had for some weeks past, and we cleared everything with the exception of a pan of low conditioned ewes. Prime tatted ewes sold freely at rather improved prices. Store wethers were in short supply, and several buyers had to go away unsatisfied. Wo quote : • Sheep—Prime maiden ewes, 10s 9d ; others, 7s Hd to 9s ; ewes in lamb, 8s ; store ewes, Gs fid ; 2-tooth wethers, 8s to 10s 2d ; woolly lambs (small), 4s 7d; shorn wether lambs (low condition), 4s 7d ; culls, 2s 2d to 2s fid. Cattle —Shorthorn weaners, 84s ; others, 28s; 18-month steers, 82s; backward dairy cows, £8 7s fid to £1 10s. Pigs- Porkers, 15s to 16s.
