PAHIATUA SALE
HOGGETS ADVANCE IN PRICE. Messrs Dalgety and Co., Ltd., report having held their weekly sale at Pahiatua, when a good yarding of sheep and an average yarding of cattle, principally dairy sorts, were offered. Hoggets were in keen demand and sold readily at prices in advance of ruling rates. Two-tooth wethers and store ewes were harder to quit and prices remained at last week’s level. The top price of the sale for woolly wether hoggets was 20s Id obtained for a line of IG3 offered on behalf of Messrs Jas. Piper and Co., while the same vendors realised 26s 5d for a line of 163 medium woolly ewe hoggets. Pigs were again in keen demand and sold readily at recent rates.
