shipped in last week There was great
deal of plain sheep on the market today,
but there were also few loads OF pretty
rcspecta le-looking stock. Up TO noon

Packers We're all in the market Tor rat
stock. but the run Of this kind OF sheep
was rather light. with the result that trad

with the market strong to tOc higher in
most cases. Lambs We're also selling az
good, steady prices and in some cases
went at prices that would indicate that the
market on that kind of stock was about
l0c higher. However generally speaking,
the market on fat lambs was steady to
strong.
There were number of feeding lambs
was generally pretty fair. There were
quite a number OF coutry buyers in today.
but they were inclined to be rather par
ticular and were In q rather bearish mood.
However, i'm spite of this, the trading on
feeder sheep was reasonably active, with a

week.
There wore only few scattering loads
of COWS and heifers on the market this
morning, while there was moderate de-

There was a fair supply Of stockers and
feeders on the market this morning and
there was y good demand from yard
