STOCK SALES. The Farmers’ Co-operative Auctioneering Co., Ltd., reports :— We had a full entry of beef and an average yarding of store cattle at our weekly Hamilton sale, held on Thursday, October 20. Beef sold at about late rates. No heavy weight, cattle was yarded. Steers of a medium weight, but well finished, made £7 10s to £9 ; heavy fat cows £5 2s to £6 3s ; forward conditioned 4>-year steers off turnips £4 14s to. £5 16s ; forward cows £2 5s to £3 10s ; store cows £1 to £2 2s 6d ; good 20-months to 2-year heifers suitable for dairy purposes £5 7s 6d to £5 10s, others £3 7s 6d to £4 ; Jersey cross and Jersey £4 to £7 ; bulls £1 10s to £l4, according to breed and quality. The competition for fat sheep was not brisk, while buyers were present for all store sheep. Small woolly hoggets brought up to 7s 3d, 2-tooth wethers 10s. Our advertised recommendation to clients not to yard pigs this- week resulted in a small entry, which, as anticipated, met with slack competition. Baconers made £4 Ils, porkers £2 6s to' £3 10s, store pigs 12s to £1 16s.
