MORE CONFIDENCE
MARKET FOR SHEEP VALUES AT FRANKTON More confidence was displayed by butchers when competing for fat sheep at the Frankton stock sale today, where larger supplies of mutton ; were available. Although prices were ] not as high as for the small entry last j week, the market tone was generally very brightBeef was not so eagerly sought and ! values were hardly on a par with last ' sale. In some cases, however, late I rates were obtained. A buoyant marke 1 . was experienced for fat pigs and j porkers and baconers were traded at j slightly increased values.
