Breeders Warned
This year’s Canterbury stud ram fair, which began at the Show Grounds at Addington yesterday, is being held on two days so that prospective buyers have more chance of seeing the rams before the sale begins. Vendors are required to pen their rams by 9 a.m. on each day, two hours before the sale is due to begin.
Before the start of yesterday’s sale the secretary of the Canterbury
Agricultural and Pastoral Association. Mr 11. M. Studholme, said that his committee had been disappointed at the number of breeders who had come late with their rams and had so defeated the whole object of the change in the fair procedure. The committee had in mind that next year there would be a fairly severe penalty imposed on vendors arriving with their sheep after 9 a.m.
