DaP.ELT.CHET, McLEOD AND CO. (Special to tho Herald.) NAPIER, this clay. .Messrs.

Pieces and bellies sold at values about ou a par with lust year. Considering the condition of the wool this 'season, the reports of the fall in the London market and the report of the Auckland sale, prices' must he considered satisfactory, particularly, as stated above, fur super and' fine wools. Inferior and coarse wools were neglected and tho disposition appeared to be to avoid extreme prices for old wools held over from previous seasons. The report continues:---“We were fortunate that a very small percentage of our catalogue was comprised of old wools, There was a large attendance of buyers ' and, ' generally, competition was keen, giving encouragement for the future and the solidity of the wool situation. It is sincerely hoped that to-day is indicative of some progressive improvement;' We. sold under tlie hammer 85 to 86 per cent, of our catalogue, the hulk of the wools passed in being of inferior quality. Our highest price of the sale was 94d for a: line of 10 bales of Southdown’wool.

DALGETY AND COMPANY Dalgety and Company, Limited, report: — “The opening sale for Napier of the 1932-33 season was held yesterday afternoon and evening, when a full bench of buyers was in attendance. As anticipated, the sale was disappointing, and it was evident from the outset that ordinary and inferior top-making wools were in very little demand. Finer wools of 48’s quality and upwards sold well, but when a lot contained 4fi’s and under, prices were at a very low level. Only super wools below 48's sold satisfactorily, these being purchased by Japan. Continental buyers operated freely on carding fleeces, also necks, pieces and bellies. The Home trade was particularly quiet, and this does not look hopeful for the crossbred market. Dalgety and Company offered 5180 bales and sold approximately 75 per cent, under the hammer.” The firm reports offering the following Gisborne district brands: — S and M over Ivupenga. —4 A lbs, sd ; 5 AH, 6 jd; 4 AE. 4*d; 6 BH, 44(1; 10 BE, 3fd; 10 uE, 3|d: ,TD.—B BE, (p) 34(1.
