Ohbistchukoh, October 16 There was a large a* tendance at the .MdLngtott market to-day. The eatries of sheep were smaller than of late, but cattle were well represented* Fat Cattle—The entry included a fair proportion of primo steer beef, with a number of handy weight heifers. The warm weather made the butchers Jisinclined to operate, aad though there was do quotable drop, prices inclined to be easier. Steers, £5 17s 6d to £9; heifers, £5 to £7 9s 6d; cowb, £5 to £8. •Store Cattle—Large yarding, a con siderable portion of which was sold privately* Yearlings 25s to 33s ; eighteen months old, mixed, 40a to 475; two-year-old, mixed cattle, £3 to £3 ss; three-year-old steers, £4 15s to £5 2s 6d. Fat Sheep—A smaller yarding of fat »heep contained very few really prime sorts, half finished sorts ami factory rejects being present in great force.

ASHBUETON MARKETS.

Messrs Friedl&nder Bros, report upon the weekly stock sale, as follows;—A yarding of 5076 sheep and 30 cattle was penned up for the usual Eale on Tuesday last at the Ashburton yards. Although a good attend ancft of those intereseted in the sale was present, it was very difficult to effect any sales in store sheep at auction, buyers being ve-y shy, and only the best lines met with anything like competition. However we succeeded in making a very good clearance, and with the exception of a short line of amall shorn hoggets, we cleared the whole of our entry in sheep—22sl in all. The butchers' pens were fairly well filled with some really good crossbred sheep, and a few pens of merino wethers, all of which came ia for good competition. Crosabreds sold at from 12a to 16s 6d, merino wethers lOaSd to 10a 4cl, merino ewe-i from 6* 91, 9i 3d to 10a.
