. SHORTAGE OP MUTTON IN . CANTERBURY. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Christehurch, Last Night. The short supplies of fat sheep coming forward, and the high prices ruling, will probably result in the butchers applying to the Board of Trade for permission to obtain mutton from the freezing works. At Addington to-day no live fat sheep realised less than £2, the top price being £ 3. There is a likelihood of the market being almost bare for some time, owing to a great part of the country being still snowbound. A RECORD FROST. Christehurch, Last Night. The record frost for this winter occurred this morning, the reading at Granity Observatory showing 10 degrees. Only on Ave or six occasions during the past fifteen years has so low a temperature been recorded.
