PEDIGREE SHEEP English " slieep-breeders experienced during January last an oxceHont demand foif; stock from abroad, and we have to go back as far as 1907 to find a month of January in which a greater uumher-of sheep were shipped than during the month just over. The average declared value, as will be seen from tho comparative table given below, is very satisfactory, particularly jvhen it .be remembered, that' the bigsier portion of tho sheep 'exported had already been used during the-past season in tho tome flocks: —: ■; • . Value. Average. Period • No. £ £ s. d.
