LORNEVILLE STOCK SALE
BRIGHT SALE FOR FAT SHEEP
VALUES IMPROVE BY
3/- A HEAD
BIGGER ENTRY IN FAT CATTLE SECTION
The sale for fat sheep was very bright at the weekly Lorneville stock sale yesterday and values improved to the extent of about 3/- a head for all classes. Country butchers and representatives of northern interests bid keenly. The fat cattle section was much bigger and the quality also improved considerably. Good quality bullocks brought prices which were slightly firmer than was the case last week. In the store cattle section only 21 beasts were yarded, compared with 56 the previous week. The quality of the animals was poor, although the sale was quite a good one. There was a big entry of 101 dairy' cows. The following are the yardings in the individual sections at the last two
