H. MATSON & CO CHRISTCHURCH. PAT CATTLE 1 T7IAT SHEEP! AT CATTLE! A AT SHEEP! TO OCR WEST COAST FRIENDS—WE DESIRE TO CALL YOUR SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE EXTRAORDINARY CONDITIONS WHICH HAVE BEEN BROUGHT ABOUT IN THE CANTERBURSHEEP MARKETS BY REASON OF SHORTAGE OF FACTORY SPACE AND CONTINUED DRY WEATHER, ESPECIALLY THE LATTER. Farmers here have in many cases been unable to fatten their stock, and there has been no feed. Canterbury has not enjoyed the autumn runs which were reasonably to be expected and in consequence there is a great dearth of feed. Hard frosts are now prevailing here and it is obvious that, it will bo a matter of the greatest difficulty to Canterbury farmers to have fat stock to supply our markets during winter. CANTERIBORY'S wiiSfOßTuliE ...is surely... YOUR OPPORTUNITY. We have confidence in recommending West Coast producers to consign their fat stock, both Cattle and Sheep, and tins market during the coming winter months. Supplies here will be short and the, demand considerable, especially in view of the fact that the pressure of. factory spwce has now been relieved. here is your opportunity DO NOT MISS T! 1 Upon receipt, of instructions we shall be glad to order trucks to load at Arthur’s Pass, and where desired we cau arrange to take delivery of shee oc, arrival of the train at Otira. .
