COMMERCIAL

ASHBURTON MARKETS.

Messrs Friedlander Bros report upon the live stock market for the week ending February 15, as follows:—At the Tinwald Yards on Tuesday there was a fairly large en'ry of sheep, mostly of second class and cull lanibs, some two-tooth crossbred sheep, the rest lines of four-toorh freezers, freez ing lambs, and four-tooth crossbred ewes, i The total entries for the day were 10,155 sheep. 45 head of cattle, 31 pigs, and a very fair clearing was made, although the Bale was a very dragging one right through, without any change from previous week's va'ues. The fat pens were mostly crossbred ewes, nothing very prime being yarded. A clearance was effected of crossbred ewes Irom 5s to 7s, merinos 2s 6d to 4s 6d for ordinary, and up to 6* 3d for heavy weights. Our entries for the day were 2206 sheep, 3 pigs, and 4 head of cattle, all of which with the exception of one small line of two-tooths vre cleared.at. the ■ .following ratos :—2l merino owes, '»s 6d ; .10 fat crossbred ewes, 6-s 6 1 ; 63 at 5s ; 25 merino ewes, 2s lid, 2ftat 2s 5-i ;20 crossbred ewes, 7s, 18 at ss, 25 at 6< 8d; 19 small two-tooths, 6s 6d, 107 at 6a 9d ; 306 two-tooths, mixed sexes, 7s 9d ; 145 crossbred lambs, 63 lid ; 100 small Jambs, 4s lOd, 124 at 4s 6d ; 121 crossbred four-tooth ewes. 7s 10d; 100 lambs, 5s 4d ; 79 lambs 7s; 3VJ h'alfbred ewes, 7s lOd ; 347 lamba, 73 lOd ;54 lambs, 9s lOd. In beef there was rather a large yarding, and nearly all linen were cleared at about 20* per cwt. Pigs sold at somewhat better rates and with more competition.—Hinds Monthly Sale—This fixture is now arranged by the directors to take place on the third Thursday in each month, last Thursday being the first sale under the new arrange meat. A very small yarding of 500 sheep was sent forward, but those few* who were E resent evidently did not come on business ent. The result was that everything, with the exception of 80 cull merino ewes which realised 4d per head, were passed in at auction, the three .auctioneers with their four stockmen returning to their homes, having at least enjoyed a warm drive if nothing else.

Mr David Thomas reports upon the live stock market in the Ashburton district, for the week ending February 14. as follows:— On Tuesday, at the Tinwald yards, there was a large entry of stock, and a dull sale resulted, caused no doubt by the shortness of feed and the low prices ruling for frozen mutton in England. There was a large attendance of the public, but very few of them meant business. By auction several lines of sheep were passed, but found owners privately at value 3as under. The catalogues submitted by the various auctioneers nonv prhed 10; 155 sheep, 45 head cattle, and 27 pigs, of which my entry consisted of 4752 sheep, 41 head of cattle, and 24 pigs, which I sold at the following prices:—2l fat four tooths Ss, 18 fat merino ewes ss, 42 fat crossbreed 5s 9d, 37 fat crossbred ewes 5s 3d, 44 fat merino ewes 3s Bd, S fat c-ossbreds 63 Bd, 96 crossbred lambs 4s lOd, 58 crossbred lambs 2* lid, 52 crossbred ewes 2s 9d, 106 crossbred lambs 10s 6 4, 248 crossbred lambs ss, 132 crossbred eweb Is, 128 crossbred lambs 7s Id, 704 two-tooth crossbred wethers Bs, 200 two-tooth crossbreds 6i 3d, 174 two tooth cro.«sbreds 6s 6d, 233 crossbred lambs 6s 4d, 196 Dwo-tooth crossbreds 7s 4d, 470 crossbred lambs 2s 2d» 43 crossbred lambs 7s 3d, 33 fat merino ewes 3<i 6c!, 90 fat lambs 10s, 35 lambs 7s, 200 two-tooths 7s 6d, SO merino ewes and lambs 3s. la cattle I sold fab cows at £5 2? 61, £5 6?, £6 17s 6d; fat heifer £4 15s, 2 fat cattle £4 sa, 2 fat steers £4. and 2at £4 10s; stores, £2, £3 11s, £2 15s £1 15 , aud £2 12* each Id pigs Isold 7 small baconers £1 Is, 11 stores 13s 6d, and 6 suckers 7s 9<l each.

Edward Cobbett Greenwood Farm, i Southbridge, Augu6t 2, 1892 i Mr Walker. Sir,—l am glad to bear testi* , mony to the wonderful effeots of yonr Bot i Fly-fly Remedies. One of my best horses be came very bad; the skin tight, the eye life less and a bud color, ahd got low in condition Anxious to finish ploughing a paddock I did , not want to lay him up until he became un able to lift his feet or do any more. We had to help him into a stable I gave him your Remedies, and to*) treatment you pre scribed, and in a few days he was quite ; better, and now at bis work, hearty and well I quite believe, had I not given him your Bemediee, he would have died. You can ÜBe this &b you please. Robert Thompson Seaside Farm, Wakanui, April 14,1894 Mr Walker. Dear Sir,—-I have great pleasure in informing you that the bot-fly mixture I, got from Mr Heaeltine, your agent, was a wonderful auooees. I had four horses seriously ill on December last. After using all the remedies I oould think of I was induoed to try your mixture. The result was mar vellous, I striotly followed the direotions given and in s week the horses were out of danger and recovering rapidly I drenched i two more in February with the same result 1 They all put on flesh rapidly, and are now in prime order P. Sikwabt Mr Cross. Burnham, got the Remedy for a horse suffering last year; on reaching home be was dead. This season one took bad, also showing the symptoms. He gave the Remedy, and the second day after, the horse passed bota in hundreds and is doing well. I 'INe, Saddler; Recardus Henry, Saddler. ALKER, Canal Reserve t Woolston

I have had hundreds under my treatment, the same which' I gave Mr R Watker, and every horse I treated reovered when taken in time. Walker's Bot-fly Remedies therefore are the only proved guaranteed cure for the bots and should be given to every horse at once, whether he shows signs or not Launston, August 18, 1894 Mr Heseltine,—Sir, I think it is only right that I should tell you and my neighboring j farmers that I am thoroughly satisfied with Walker's Bot Fly Remedies I got from you. After seeing the state of the stomach of my bores that died, I became alarmed about the rest of my stock as they all looked bad, I drenched eight, following carefully the direc tions, It cleaned them out thoroughly and in a few days there was a wonderful change for the better I can highly recommend it and would advise farmers to lose no time in drenching their Btoek lest they have their horses dropping dead as I bad, I beli?ve it to be the only safe and oertain cure for the suffering of horses James Lemon Ashburton Fork*, March 1, 1894 Mr J Heseltine.
