Chpistchubch, January 23

There was a fairly good attendance at Addington market today, and the entries in mosfc classes were large. Business dragge 1 considerably throughout the day. Fat Cattle—Large Fupp'y ; fair clear ance made without alteration in late rates. Steers, £8 to £S 153; wcondary, £5 to 17 10-t ; heifers, £5 to £7 10j ; cows, £5 to £6 10-.

Dairy Cows.—Between fifty and sixty cows and springers came forward. None sliowe 1 first-class quality, and sales were mafic wi h difficulty. Stoke Cattle —Entry very mixed ia quality. Forward three-year-old steers and heifi ra sold at late rates, but other sorts wee hard to dispose of. Fat ?hkep— A bout 5000 yarded. Quality f hly gord, and much more even than has. leen the ca<e of late. The sale opened fairly well, but as (he supp'y was consider ably in«xces3 of the demand, prices soon found their level, and with the exception of a few extra p»ime" wethers everything in the market suffered more o.* les<>, freezing quality to the extent ot from 6d to Is per head, and other sorts in proportion. Towards the close of the sale a largo number failed to find buyers. Prime heavy weight crossbred wethers, 12s to 14s 6d ; freezers, 10a 6d to 12* 6d; crossbred ewea, 8s to 10s; merino wether*, 6s to 8s 6d; merino ewes, 4s to 63. Eat Lambs—Large yarding. • Better sorts not in much demand ■ Half-finished animals, however, held their own fairly well, being taken by graziers. Trices ranged from 7a to 123.

Store Sheep. —Market well supplied with two-tooth crossbreds and lambs. Although no advance in price was apparent there was an improved inquiry for all good sorts. A number of inferior merinos were quitted at 8d to Is per head ; two-tooth croasbreds, 7s to 8a 6d.

Pigs.—Large entry and sluggish sale, last week's price of 3|d per lb being barely maintained.

ASHBURTON MARKETS.

The New Zealand Loan and Mcrcanfci'e Agency Company, Limited (A. W. Steele, auctioneer), reports on the stock market for the week as follows :— There was a small entry at the Ashburton yards on Tuesday, comprising 3680 sheep, and 25 head cattle. Owing to havesfc operations the attendance of farmers was meagre, causing a very dragging sale. Prices showed no improve ment on last week's rates, and salesmen more than earned their commission when they were successful in placing their entries. The only demand appeared to be for good forward lambs which made up to 9s 6d. The prices are —Fat merino ewes 2a 9d to 5s ; fat crossbreds, 63 9d to Ss 8i ; two tootliß, 63 9d to 11s Id; lambs, 7s to 9a 6d. One line of lambs sold at 4s and the ewes (merinos) Is. A line of mixed ewes and lambs, all counted, brought 53.
