A well-known South Canterbury farmer "fell in'' rather badly over the sale of his lambs this year, says the Timaru Herald. He sold them as soon as lambing was over, for delivery in January, fhe price fo be paid by the buyer being 12s fid each. Jty the time the date of delivery came round, lambs had gone up considerably with the result that on fhe day the buyer took delivery of the lambs at 12s fid, he re-sold (hem for 17s fid each. The profit of 5s per head netted him a clear profit of £500.
