About 150 51 months old Hereford Black Poll and Red Poll cross-calves were included in the sale, and these with the main mob, arrived in excellent condition.

There was a large attendance at the sale, and buyers were present from North Canterbury and Otago. Local gTariers were also well represented. Bidding was very keen, and a complete clearance was effected at satisfactory prices. The following were some of th~ prices realised:— 3i yea: old Hereford bullocks. £5 10s. 2-year old steers to £3, 18-month steers to £2 15s, fat cows £4; 5i months old calves from 25 - to 30/-.
