(To the Editor). ,f j Sir, —Now that the price of fat stock has dropped, is it not time that the ' local butchers reduced the retail prices of beef and mutton? Some time ago . they had to pay from thirty to forty shillings for fat sheep. Now they pay from seventeen to nineteen shillings per head for sheep. Beef also shows a sharp decline.
