OLD WOOL CLEARANCE

YESTERDAY'S SALE

VALUES AT NAPIER

VERY HELPFUL POSITION

(Spocial to tl)o Herald.)

NAPIER, this day

One of the most satisfactory features of the Napier wool sale yesterday was the big clearance effected of old wool. A large proportion of the catalogue was composed of fleece left 6ver from last season, and practically all entered was sold.- Also, most of the leftover clips in the Napier stores were entered in the sale, leaving practically none outstanding. Had the season been an ordinary one, the catalogue would have contained a greater proportion of new season's wool, "but as it was all the old clips which growers desired to offer secured a place. The subsequent disposal should help greatly to clear the situation.

I The New Zealand Loan and Mercan- jj tile Agency Company, Limited, reports , having held the first wool sale of the ; season in Napier yesterday. A catalogue * of approximately 26,600 bales, were sub- I mitted to a full and representative ;; bench of buyers. From the outset of * the sale, bidding was exceptionally keen \ Iron, the French and Japanese sections, g but, Bradford and Germany were very '- quiet. *" * Prices, as compared with 'lie first « sale of the season held in Auckland • last week, were very firm, but the wool in Napier was rather more stylish than » at the previous centre. Bellies and k pieces were very keenly competed for, „ and the bulk of the offering was se- g cured by the Continent. Lambs wool, •• of which there was a small entry, sold \ exceedingly well at prices slightly ;' dearer than at the opening sale. This • season's wool opened up in excellent condition, being bright, well-grown and sound, and the held-over wool, of which there was a considerable quantity, kept very well and sold on a par, , taking condition into consideration, j with new wool.
