WAIMATE STOCK SALE. A special sale of sheep was held at the Waimate County Sal-yards on Tu- sday, when there was both a smaller entry and a smaller attendance of buyers than usual. There have been so many sales at and around Waimate recently th-it this is hardly to be wondered at. The entry consisted of about 4000 sheep, the greater number of which were old ewes, and these met a dragging sale. Oood sound ewes sold well. The following are quotations : Fat ewes, 13s lid; 2-tooth three-quarter-bred ewes, 17s 6d; 4, 6 and 8-tooth three-quarter-bred ewes, 16s 6d ; sound mouthed three quarter-bred ewes, 14s 6d; full and f -iling mouthed ewes, 7s, 7s 3d, 7s sd, 83,8 a 7d, 9a Id, 9s 5d to 10s; medium store lambs, 11s 6d; cu.l lambs, 8s 2d.
