TO SHEEP AND CATTLE OWNERS! TO SHEEP AND CATTLE OWNERS! TO SHEEP AND CATTLE OWNERS! TO SHEEP AND CATTLE OWNERS! ~A T THIS TIME OF THE YEAR /A. YOU WILL BE CONTEMPLATING SELLING THE TOPS OF YOUR LAMBS WHICH WILL BE MILK LAMBS AND WHICH WILL WEIGH AS MUCH NOW AS THEY WILLL THREE MONTHS LATER, THE THING TO DO IS NOT TO LEAVE IT TOO LATE as once they start to grow they start to look plain. TIIE CENTRAL MARKET AT ADDINGTON, offers a good opportunity for you to dispose of your lambs. The competition of those on this side that have rape and artificial feed will give you increased competition and V E STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU TO SEND THEM OVER, as long as they are big, well-grown, good sappy stuff. THERE IS ALSO A GOOD MARKET FOR DECENT WETHERS. LATER ON IN THE YEAR WE EXPECT A GOOD MARKET FOR EWES aud sheep for holding over, but this will not come until March and will be largely regulated by climatic conditions. THE FAT LAMB MARKET HAS HARDENED both here and in Australia. THE MUTTON MARKET HAS ALSO HARDENED in Australia and the natural conclusion is that it will harden here. CATTLE MARKETS throughout the \Vofld ARE IRREGULAR. YOU ARE A FARMER! AS A FARMER YOU ARE AN INDIVIDUAL! NO ONE CAN MANAGE YOUR FARM BETTER THAN YOU CAN YOURSELF! During the recent prosperous times many privately-owned businesses have disappeared, BUT H. MATSON & CO. ARE STILL IN THE FOREFRONT AND ARE PREPARED TO GIVE YOU PERSONAL AND DIRECT ATTENTION. WE HAVE GOOD PADDOCKING ACCOMMODATION. AND THE BEST SALESMAN. AND WE MAKE PROMPT PAYMENT. If you contemplate sending STOCK to this MARKET we shall be glad to receive same through the Agency of your usual trusted Agcut on your side if you so desire. 11. MATSON & CO., Auctioneers, Christchurch.
