Good Yarding Of Porkers And Stores At Fortnightly Sale
There was a small yarding of baconers but a good yarding of porkers arid store pigs at the forty nightly pig sale conducted by Dalgety and Company at Opotiki. Baconers and heavy porkers while not fully up to top weights made values in excess of schedule rates. Store pigs met with competition on a par with the previous sale, while slips and good weanere showed a considerable improvement on previous quotations. Realisations were: —
Prime heavy baconers, £6 10s to £6 15s; light baconers, £5 10s to £5 18s; heavy porkers, £5 5s to £5 9s; light, £4 4s to £4 8s;, large stores, £3 5s to £3 8s; small stores, £2 7s to £2 11s; slips, extra good, £2 10s to £2 11s; medium, 36s to 395; weaners, small, to 235,
