For the rougher sorts prices were a shade higher than at last sale. Fox fine halfbred wools there was a keen demand,and prices were rather higher than at the December sale. The following is the range of prices:—Fine halfbred up to 12d; fine crossbreds, 9d to ll|d; medium crossbreds from 7Jd to Bgd; clean bright lots up to pd; coarse crossbreds, 5Jd to 1% d.
