Good Yarding At Shannon Stock Sale
' A good yarding of sheep came forward but only a moderate yarding of cattle for Messrs. Abraham. and Williams' sale at the Shannon saleyards last week. The attendance of buyers was small, this probably being due to the fact that there were two Glearance saies m the district on that day. Prices realised were good and showed a hardening tendency.
