MESSRS STEVENS AND GORTON'S STOCK REPORT.
We had large entries of cattle at our sa'e in Palmerston on Friday, but sheep were in very limited numbers. Female stock showed a disposition to come down in value, but others maintained recent rates. Fab cattle were in short supply and consequently made big money, two bullooks from the Oroua Downs estate making as much as £12 7s apiece. We quote as follows : — Cattle :— Fat bullocks, £7 Us to £12 7s ; fat heifers, £5 ; Syr steers, £4 17s ; heifers in calf, £3 15s to £5 Is ; cows in calf, £3 12s 6d to £4 ; empty heifers, £3 9s to £8 18s; empty cows, £3 13s ; yearlings, £2 5s to~£2 15s ; weaners, 38s to £2 Is ; 2yr steers. £3 4s to £3 18s ; dairy cows, £5 to £8 6s.
