BETTER THAN EXPECTED
WAIRARAPA STUD RAM SALE.
By Telegraph.—Press Association.
Masterton, Last Night. Despite the backward season and the conditions ruling throughout the Dominion, sheep came forward in excellent condition and prices well _ above vendors’ expectations were realised at the Wairarapa sheep breeders’ thirteenth annual stud ram sale at the Solway showgrounds to-day. There was a full and representative attendance of buyeres, and though 68 per cent, of the offering was passed, the top lines , were well sought after. Mr. W. Perry received the top price of the sale for a splendidly conditioned and well-covered Romney purchased by Mr. 4. Kilpatrick (Gisborne) for 181 o-uineas. The next highest price was received by Mr. Q. Donald for a fine Romney purchased by the Elgar Estate (Featherston) for 131 guineas. Three other Romneys also realised three figures.
