ASHBURTOX MARKETS.

Mr David Thomas reports upon the live stock market for the week ending June 29, as follows:—Oa Tuesday the usual weekly sale was held at the Aahhunon yards. The weather was very rough, and rain fell con tinuously throughout the day. The yards were in a soft condition, and made it very unpleasant for all. More sheep were yarded than anticipated, but several lines which had been on the road before the rain com- ! tnenced were compelled to put in an appear- i ance The attendance was fair, considering ' the state of the weather; but buyers were not keen on purchasing, so that bidding was alack. Sheep did not look their best, so that they did not realise their fair value. Most of the good sheep had to be held over for the next sale. The total entry comprised 4784 sheep, 27 head of cattle and 60 pigs, of which my entry consisted of 3122 sheep, 3 head of ctttle and 60 pigs. The following are the prices realised .-—Fat sheep—6 cross bred ewes 6V4 \ 21 fat crossbred ewes 9s, 5 fat two-tooths lls, 2 fat merino wethers 6j 9d, 52 fat crossbred ewes 7s 9d, 52 fat merino ewes Ba. Stores—66 six and eight tooth crossbred owes in lamb 4s 9d, 100 four and eight-tooth crossbred ewes 6s 7d, 211 halfbred ewes, two-tooths in lamb 7s Bd, 95 crossbred ewes 3s lOel, 80 four and six-tooth cossbred ewes in lamb 7» Bd, 85 crossbred lambs 6s 4d,;i51 crossbred lambs 7b lOd, 71 crossbred ewes in lamb 5s 6d, 60 merino ewes in lamb 2s Bd. Cattle—l fat cow £7 12s 6d, 1 springer £6 7s 6d. Pigs—A line of 58 small and large pigs I sold for £22 the lot. 1 baconer £115s, 1 baconer £1 ss.

Meun Friedlander and Co. report upon the live stock market for the week ending Friday. June 28, aa follows:—Considering the state of the weather it was surprising to find an entry of 4784 Bheep, 27 cattle and 60 pigs yarded at the Ashburton yards on Tuesday last. It is needless to say that the attendance of buyers and others was small, and very little business at auc tion (in the store pens) remitted. In fact several lines were not offered at all, the stock looked in so wretched condition. The fat peas were only sparsely filled, and butchers' only just buying enough to keep them going for the week, prices were at about par with last weeks sales. Fat merino ewes sold at from 5s 3d to 6s 7d; crossbred ewes up to 9s lid ; and a pen of /at crossbred wethers 10s 9d. Five peas of good merino wethers were passed in. Most of the store sheep were half and three quarterbred ewes of various ages, but buyers were not very anxious to operate. Two lines of halfbred two-toofchs sold at 7s 5d and 7s Bd. Most of the others iv this class were passed in. Some good two-tooth forward crossbreds were submitted, but did not reach owners' values, and were passed in, 9s 6d being the best offer. Our entry for the day was 1702 sheep and 20 cattle, out of which we disposed of in fat sheep, 35 merino ewes 5s 9d, and 19 crossbred ewes 9s 11; in stores, 347 two-tooth ewes in lamb, 7a sd; 210 at 7s Bd—the balance of sheep were withdrawn. In beef, fat cows sold at from £5 to £8 ; a line of steers was turned out unsold. In stores there was only a small entry, only two springers were sold at £5 And £6 12s 6d.

Banking Conference

MfiiBOURNE, June 28 At the Banking Conference, Mr Turner, general manager of the Com mercial IBank of Australia, stated that tha banks had reaped no profit from the note circulation since the note tax was introduced. He believed that the banks were willing to surrender the privilege, but they must have a note currency of some kind. He thought that the issue of State notes would be satisfactory to the public but disap pointing to the Government, because the highest point that the Victorian noteissus ever reached was £1,400,000, and it averaged £120,000 at present. llis bank made no profit from current credit balances, because the - whole amount was held in coin. The banks generally were adopting thd view th t they must enlarge their capital with the growth of business, and a safe rule to lay down was that the deposits should not exceed double the amount of a bank's capital. He get down the amount of gold held by the banks at about eight millions ster ling, which he considered was sufficient lor the business of the country. He did not think that the English system of restricting business .to what was called liquid asie^tß was suitable for the colonies. He advocated that they should do land mortgage as well as regular commercial business. All the banks had made considerable advances on land, and the money, in many case?, was practically locked up. Fully 80 per cent of the agricultural holdings were mortgaged, and the great bulk for as much aa they could carry.

AVER'S SARSAPARILLA Purifies, Vitalizes, Enriches the Blood; Gives New Life, Health and Vigour. Mr. Alfred C. Jolliffe, of Grranville, So. Australia, whose portrait we give above, writes: ] "I used Ayer's Sarsaparilla in England for years before coming- to Australia. At times I was much troubled with boils and other eruptions of the skin, caused, the doctors told me, by the running down of my i system, and general debility. The only medicine that has ever done me lasting good is Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which has always cured me—purifying my blood, and giving me new life and health and vigour." .The wonderful success of Ayer's Sarsa'parilla in purifying the blood and restoring health and strength to systems enfeebled by disease, or the enervnt-' ing effect of a warm .climate, has led to the placing on the market of othe< preparations called Sarsaparilla. Bemember that imitation is the srncorosl form of flattery, and be sure that you get AVER'S SARSAPARILLA which has stood the test of time, has won the highest awards at the world's great expositions, and has been a blessing to the people of Australia, and all civilized countries, for more than a generation. Jfo other medicine operates so effectually in removing general debility, languor, and all outward symp toms of the grave mischief caused by disordered nerves and impure blood.

He was ailing for Boma days, his coat got very dry, the ekin tight, a running at tbe nose and.a very bad cough ; and was scarcely able to walk about; we quite expected he would die.
