Bidding was on the whole rather slow, especially for aged horses, and only a few changed hands. Yotne; van geldings were soarce, and the demand, even for this class was not over brisk. Geldings suitable for order-carts and express work had a fair amount of attention, and several transactions took place. Buggy sorts were not much in demand, and very few sales were effected. We quote: Heavy draught maree and geldings, £50 to £60 ; plough mares, suitable for fourhorse teams, £10 to £15 ; van geldings, £40 to £50 • order-cart horses, £22 to £30 ; heavy spring-carters' £25 to £32.
