There were about 500 more sheep yarded than had been advertised for sale, ail young, and of a good class. The attendance of buyers was large, and very satisfactory prices were realized. Previous to the commencement of the sale. Mr Abraham called the attention of flock owners to the Act which came into force on the first of January, making it compulsory on them to always keep their sheep branded, under a maximum and a minimum penalty of £5, and 2s respectively for each sheep. It was a law, he said, that would prove very troublesome in practice, but it was competent for the Governor in Council— on application from a majority of the flockowners, being'also the proprietors of two- thirds of the sheep in the districts— to render this regulation inoperative. Therefore, he said, if they considered this clause unnecessary and of no practical benefit, it was in their own hands to provide a remedy. A petition has been drawn up in Palmerston, requesting the Governor to render this regulation, as to branding, inoperative in this diyisional district. The petition, to be effective, would require 900 signatures. He brought a copy of the petition with him, which a great many signed. The following are some of the prices realized:— Cattle.— Yearling, £2; three heifer calves, £1 «Ss; two year old cattle from £2 14s 6d to £3 os. Cows in calf, from £3 18s 6d to £4 2s 6d. Cowsm milk, about the same price; Fat cows, small, from £3 12s 6d to £3 10s. One fat bullock sold for £5 2s 6d SheepHoggets, ewe, 15s 6d ; wether, 15s 2d ; mixed, 13s lOd. Fat ewes, 13s 3d. Fat wethers, over 17s. Old ewes with lambs at foot 16s. The site of the Sandon flour mill, lately destroyed, comprising half an acre, was sold for £15, and the wreckage of the machinery and building for £19. FREEMAN E. JACKSON & CO.'S STOCK REPORT.
