SALE OF STUD LINCOLN SHEEP.
Messrs Abraham and Williams, Ltd., report on Mr William Strang's sale of stud Lincoln sheep: —The attendance of buyers was not large, and several intending buyers were prevented from purchasing owing to the extreme dry weather and consequent shortage of feed and water.

A clearance was made at the following prices:—Ewe la.nbs, 2 guineas to 2| guineas; 2-tooth ewes, 2 guineas to 3 guineas; 4-tooth ewes, If guineas to Si guinea*; 6-tooth ewes, 1£ guineas to 3£ guineas; 8tooth ewes, 1J guineas to 32 guineas; f.m. ewes, | guinea to 1| guineas; ram lambs, 2 guineas to 4 guineas; rams, 24 guineas, 20£ guineas, and three at 15-guineas.
