WELLINGTON WOOL SALES
ACTIVITY OF BRADFORD BUYERS DECEMBER RATES ABOUT MAINTAINED (By Telegraph—Press Association) WELLINGTON, This Day. At the wool sale there was an aggregate catalogue of 18.000 bales. There was keen competition _ which opened slightly under the closing rates in December. Super ,crossbred of good quality was fully up to the December level, whilst wools just reaching average grade Were weaker by a farthing. Fully average wools kept to the December level, wools selling at 4£d and 4£d in December not quite reaching those prices today. Bellies and nieces were id to id cheaper. The wool offered was of good average quality considering the poor season, but slightly heavier in grease compared with the December offering, yet bright in colour if lacking good growth. Bradford was active, America buying moderately suitable wools. The Continent was only fairly keen. There was very little old'wool in the catalogue.
