Commercial.
Messrs M. R. Miller and Potts reports having held their usual monthly sale at Waipawa on Thursday, when there was a good attendance, and considering the scarcity of feed the stock sold very well. There were not so many sheepskins in as expected, and most of the lots were of inferior quality, but were all sold at prices ranging from 2d to 6|d per lb. A few bales of wool came to hand, and realised 7|d per lb. There were 107 head of cattle yarded, and nearly all sold at satisfactory prices, there being a good demand for young steers and heifers and really good cows, but old cows were hardly saleable. There were some prime fab bullocks from Mangatarata, which realised from £8 to £12; three-year-old Bteers brought from £5 5s to £510s ; eighteen months to two-year-old steers, from £3 5s to £3 15s ; heifers, eighteen months to two years, from £3 to £3 12s 6d 5 cows, £3 to £7 10s j weaners, £1 5s to £110s.
