At the present timo different sections are beiag realiaed nit at the: same timewhich wusfbe a curtailment at the competition that otherwise would bo forthcoming in connexion with the paritcular consignment that any of o|ir readers, might hove_ in any section. The dis-tribution-»f tho buyers to support thrije, four, or Are sales at the same time, means a splitting and dividing up of the btlying power, and this jnust be adverse to the obtaining of tho highest prices that might otherwise be forthcoming if better methods were in vogije. Surely the time is ripe for the blending of the sections by judicious marketing, by the establishment of a sale of cattle and pigs on one day; in the week and sheop and lambs on another day in the week. This would facilitate transport in and out, efficiency of handling, etc.. and would ensure a responsible realisation for the goods that were sent in by BUI Jones or Tom Smith, than are in evidence to-day. " STORE SSEEP. LAMBS—H. Matson and Co. report the entry to represent 8000 lambs. There was a fair Sprinkling' of tjliee>quarterbred lambs in the catalogue, and numerous pens of 'wbUgrown and evenly graded flne-woolled lambs. i"or these particular lots competition was keen and undoubtedly instances y/ero in evidence where a slight advance on the previous week s rates was in evidence, hut in most caqeß it was attributable to the better standard ofthe offering, yuljy half the catalogue showed a want of condition and many Undersized ot light-boned consignments were in evidence. That grade of lamb received the full volume of competition ou the basis of last week a rates. Jn t{io market to-day tho standard of the catalogue represented a larger proportion of. the claps of lamb that was faquired by the farmer, namely, three-quarter-bred and crossbred#. This particular section was responsible for recording a greater percentage of top values equivalent to the standard of the previous week with intermittent occasions where a glight advance was ;i» evidence. The balance of the catalogue/ realised prices that were on all fours with ' previous rates, Beit Intabs sold from 84 63 to 98 9d, jfoo4 7a to Ba, medium 5b 84 to culls and late lambs 2s 6d to ss.
