VARIABLE MARKET
STORE SHEEP OFFERING VALUES AT MORRINSVILLE (Times Special Reporter) MORRINSVILLE, Friday A variable market was experienced at Morrinsville to-day, when another large yarding of store sheep was offered. There was a considerable range in quality and while young sheep remained firm old ewes were usually easier over the early stages. A fair proportion of East Coast sheep were yarded but large consignments were also forward from the King Country, North Auckland and southern -stations. A particularly nice truck of two-tooths ex-Gisborne, made 28s 6d. while another line of 100 cleared at 24s 2d. Good framed four and five-year East Coast ewes were knocked down at 17s 3d with other lines making from 15s. A line of 311 six-tooth and four-year ewes was traded at 16s while mixedaged ewes from North Auckland met the market at i7s 2d.
