The Dunedin Wool Sales.
At the third of the season’s wool sales on Tuesday the catalogues submitted were comparatively small, the total number of bales offered being less than a half of the number offered at the previous sales. The attendance of buyers, was scarcely so large as usual, the Timaru and Oamaru mills not being represented. On the whole the sales passed off very satisfactorily, and only a small proportion was withdrawn. The catalogues submitted were as follows Wright, Stephenson and C 0,1622 bales; Donald Reid and C 0,784; Farmers Agency Company, 709 ; N.Z.L and M.A Co, 636; Stronach Bros and .Morris, 474; Mutual Agenoy Co, 432; Dalgety and Co, 369 ; W E Reynolds and C 0,225; Moritzson and Hopkin, 207—total, 5458. Prices for bright light clean halfbred and crossbred were on a par with those realised at the previous sales. Heavy and dingy crossbred and halfbred and heavy conditioned merino sold at par to Jd lower, and pieces and locks sold at prices slightly in favour of buyers.
