Messrs F. R. Jackson and Co.'s Wanganui Stock Report.
The bulk of the cattle entered did not come forward : for tho beef there were several inquiries and doubtless would have sold. The entry of cattle was consequently small. Some second rate cow beef made £2 6s to £2 10s. A moderate number of sheep. We disposed of most of the fat and cull ewes, but store wethers did not reach owners' figures. Fat wethers, 8s 6d to 8s 9d ; fat ewes, 6s ; cull ewes, Is 4d to 2s 2d. A full yarding of pigs.
