TARANAKI WOOL, SKIN, HIDE AND TALLOW SALES. Mr. NEWTON KINO'S REI'ORT. On Tuesday, April 7th, I ')eld my j usual four-weekly sale of above produce, and submitted a catalogue comprising 59 bales and 124 sacks of wool, 1889 • sheepskins, 578 hides, 14 casks and 38 ! tins tallow, 115 calfskins, and the usual | assortment of hair, tails, etc. Thcra was a good attendance of buyers, with excellent competition. Wool—Mostly straggler lines, heavy in seed, now offering. Fleece and lambs showed a quieter tone, no doubt due to London advices stating crossbred market | weaker, with a decline of %d in tops t t since the sales closed. CrutcMngs, locks ;< and pieces, however, realised excellent ■/ values. S Shcpskins—Showed an advance up to { one penny per lb. under spirited compe- ji tition. Vendors should not miss the op- 9 portunity of availing themselves of the « high values now ruling. i Hides.—The excellent prices lately ruling were still further advanced under a very keen demand. Ordinary butcher, cow were par to %d higher, and superior cow par to %d higher. Ox hides were Arm at late rates, whilst yearlings were again higher up to %d per lb. Tallow.—Declined 5/- per ton. * I quote:— Wool—Crossbred, fine 9 1 / 4 d, medium B%d to 9%d, coarse B%d to 9d, stained, •matted and seedy 8d to 8y 2 d, badly seedy s>/ 2 d to 7%d, broken fleece, stained and seedy 7d, badly seedy 3%, black (seedy) Cd, lambs, good B%d to 9d inferior 7%d to 8%, seedy 6d. to Bd.
