There was a large entry of export lambs, the quality of which was not so good as those that have- been coming forward during the season. Export buyers lowered their limits, as they considered that of late they have been paying too much for lambs, and' the falling-off in quality, which was to be expected at this late season of the year, does not warrant the high prices being paid. There was 'consequently a drop of Is to Is; Gd per head as compared with last week, and some lots showed: even a further falling off in values. The rate per lb was about 5%d to 5 7 / g d.
