PEDIGREE CATTLE SALE

VERY FAIR PRICES. At the Waiwakaiho Yards yesterday, a sale of pedigree Jersey stock was held by Mr. Newton King on account of a number of ■vendors. Mr. S. W. Shaw wielded the hammer in his usual efficient manner, but bidding was not so spirited as might have been anticipated. A factor in this respect wlas perhaps that the season is far advanced, and that farmers generally have filled requirements. There was a moderate attendance of buyers. The following is a list of the sales: On account of Mr. J. H. Street, Bell Block: Bull, Juno's Laddie, to Mr. Harris, Bombay, Auckland), 21% gns. On account of Mr. P. H. E.
