H. MATSON & CO CHRISTCHURCH. Fat cattle i yjAT sheep i AT CATTLE 1 A.T SHEEP I TO DOR WEST COAST FRIENDS—WE DESIRE TO CALL YODRSPECIAL 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 - rains 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 wifi be a matter of the greatest- difficulty to Canterbury farmers to have fat stock te supply our markets during winter. CANTERBURY’S ' ...is Burely... YQUF? OPRORTyUITY. We have confidence in recommending West Coast producers to consign their f H i stock, both Cattle and Sheep, andthis market during the coming winter months. Supplies here will be short and the demand considerable, especially in view of the fact that the pressure o' factory space has now been relieved. here is your opportunity DO NOT MISS :f l I Upon receipt of instructions we shall be glad to order trucks to load at Arthur’s Pass, and where desired we car arrange to take delivery of shee or arrival of the train at .Qtira.
