Messrs Nolan, Tonks and Co.'s Stock Report.
At Eltham, on the Bth inst., we had a fair entry of cattle, but owing to the continued dry weather there was very little life in the bidding, and those disposed of were in favour of buyers. At Hawera, on on the 10th hist., considerably more than the quantity of stock advertised came forward, but competition was not keen, consequently some lines had to return unsold. We quote: — At Eltham — Yearling heif ers,l4s tolfis ; weaners, 7s 6d to 10s ; calves, 4s to 5s 6d ; 18-months steers, 255; 2 to 2 j-y ear heifers, 23s to 255 ; 2 J-year steers, 30 to 40s ; fresh condition cows, 35s to 365 ; springers, £3 to £4 ; 2-year steer, 32s to 345; yearling steers, 15 to 17s.
