Store stock were selling at late rates. In the dairy pens good quality and conditioned heifers brought full values, but a large percentage of the heifers were only in medium condition, and the prices realised suffered in consequence. Quotations: Best dairy heifers to £-16, medium to good £lO to £l2, others to £9, dairy cows to

£l2, fat cows £6 10s, other cows 10s to 30s, ,3-year steers £3, 2-year heifiers £4 10s to £5 10s, yearling Shorthorn and Holstein heifers £3 to £3 15s, well-grown do. £4 Bs, particularly well-grown yearling Jersey heifers £lO 108, others to £6 7s, store pigs £2 Is to £2 16s, slips 355, weaners to 2<is. On Tuesday at Stratford there was a good entry. Dairy stock were in particularly good demand, and the prices realised were much above the vendors’ reserves. Small hoggets 7s 6d, others 8s 6d, empty ewes 9s 6d, fat cows £5 10s to £6, forward cows £2 10s to £3, stores £1 to 30s, empty heifers £5 3s to £5 10s, Jersey weaner tops £7 10s to £8 2s 6d, mixed breeds £3 to £3 10s, beet dairy heifers £l6 to £lB, good to £l3, later sorts £8 to £lO. On the same day at Manaia we had a fair entry; store pigs made £ 214 s to £ 2 4s, slips to 31s, hoggets to 10s 6d, forward empty ycung cows £2 10s to £3 10s, better conditioned sorts to £4, store cows 10s to 255, well-grown yearling steers 235, Jersey yearling heifers £7 to £B, Jersey cross do. to £5 15s, other breeds to £3 10s, small do. £2, best dairy heifers to £2O, good to £l4 10s, others £lO 10s.

On Thursday at Inglewood we conducted a special sale of 800 Jersey an<k other empty heifers. There was a good attendance of the public, but it was very noticeable that the d< wn trend of the butter and cheese is having its effect on the dairy stock market. However, we think that the prices realised should be considered satisfactory under the present circumstances. We were able to dispose of the majority of the yarding under the hammer and privately after the auction, the greatest percentage of the good quality heifers going to a client from Whangarel. The top price was £l3 for two particularly nice yearling Jerseys, 60 do. £ll 15s, 120 at from £lO to £lO 15s, smaller £7 to £8 12s 6d, others £5 10s to £6 6s, 2-year empty Jersey cross to £9. At Funiwhakau on Friday we held our spring fair, when heifers and springers were yarded. There was a fair demand for two-year-olds, but yearling heifers were not sought after. Prices were as follows: Springing cows made £ll to a>r3, heifers £8 to £ll, Jersey to £l4, late sorts £6 10s, 2-year Jersey cross £8 17s Gd, Shorthorn and Hols.ein £5 to £5 15s, yearling do. to £3. WAIKATO STOCK MARKET. The Farmers’ Co-op. Auctioneering Co. report : At Hamilton on Thursday, September 29, we had an average yarding of cattle and sheep. Pigs were again in good supply. Competition for beef was much better, and everything offered was disposed of. Best bullocks made from £9 Ils to £l3 Is, light-weights £5 10s to £8 12s 6d, fat cows £5 10s «o £6. Competition for store cattle was also brisker, and all lots changed hands; 3-year steers £4 2s 6d to £5 Is, inferior quality £3 10s, 18-month to 2-year steers £1 17s to £2 12s, fresh conditioned cows £1 12s to to £2 12s, store cows Ila to £1 2s 6d, 2-year empty heifers made to £4, for medium quality small yearling heifers 30s to £2 13s, mixed yearlings (small) 7s to 14s. The competition for sheep was dull, although most of the yearding was cleared. Fat wethers made to 225, forward 13s 9d to 17s, forward ewes 9s. Pigs were well competed for, but values were somewhat easier, especially in young pigs. Best baconers to £6 13s, porkers £3 5s to £4 10s good slips £1 15s to £2 12s 6d, small slips £1 to £1 12s 6d, weaners 6s to 15s.
