FAT LAMBS. The yr.rding was in all lespects an end of the season one, being small in numbers (800 head) and poor in quality. As the v.xrks will be closing down at tho beginning of tho week, competition was irregular. Tcp price of tho day was 40s for a pen of seven from J. B. McAnulty (Rnkaia). Values were: —■ Extra primo lambs, to -10s. Prime, 31s to 80s Gd. Medium, 31s to 33s Gd. Light, 27s to 30s. Store lambs, 21s to 265. The following were the principal sales: On account of J. B.

Tho entry w:is smaller than last week, comprising slightly ever nine races, compared with eleven. There was a. smaller i showing -of wetiicra than usual, and generally the quality of tho entry was mecuocrn, although a few good drafts came up from South Canterbury. It was practically, a butchers' market, export operators showing very moderate interest a.nd graziers buying only small lots. However, in epite of some irregularity in. prices, the sale was a good one, finishing up particularly well when sonio good drafts were offered. The last rtico contained an exceptional pen of five Border Leicester ewes, sold on behalf of It. J.

FAT CATTLE. A vaixhii? of 530 head, compared whh 490 last week. At the two preceding Bales the figures wcro GSO and 510, an average varding for the month of 550 head. The figures are instructive, as showing tho increased beef consumptive, capacity of the citv and also aa indicating the soundness of 'the demand for cattle, in spite of nunibor3 which may reasonably bo considered an excess. Ycstcrdav's entry was comprised of all classes of stuff. There were a, few good lines of elation cattle forward, and local fatteners had also several good pens on offer. However, the entry generally was on the hard-looking side, and tho cow proportion was little short of its recent strength. The market opened at an advance on last week for all good classes of cattle, . whilst secondary and inferior stuff was a shade brighter in tone, with no improvement in values. Ordinary class beef lato in the day scarcely held earlier values. On an average, good beef was better' by 2s per 1001b. Primest beef made 41s per 1001b, good 3Gs to 3Ss Gd, medium 33s to 35s 6d,. fight. 27s to.SHe, and rough and inferior from 15s' to 255.
