ADDINGTON STOCK MARKET.

Ohristchurch, June 5

The attendance at Add ing ton market to 4ay was large, but the entries in most de partments were s/nall, and shortness of sup plies caused a riae in nearly every class. Fat Cattle. —154 head were yarded, the bulk medium weights and quality. There was an improved demand for all sorts, but more especially for the few lines of really prime quality on offer, which brought in a few instances up to 22s per 1001b. The average for good beef was from 19a to 21s ; secondary sorts and cow beef 14s to 18s. Stoke Cattle. —These were a mixed lot. Better enquiry for good young stock, but no competition for aged beasts and weedy calves.

Fat Sheep,—About 3500 penned. The entry was of fairly even quality, and the shortness of supply caused an improvement in the sale fo- all sorts. Heavy weight crossbred wethers, 11s 6d to 13s ; ewes, 10s to 12s 3d; freezing wethers, 10s to 11s 7d; ewes, 9j 6d to 10s 7d; butchers' best ewes, 3s 6d to 10s 6d ; medium, 5s 9d to 6s 6d ; merino wethers, 5s to 7s 6d; ewes, 4s 3d to 7a Id.

Stobe Sheep.—^mall entry, but an im provement in quality. Forward turnipers, 7a 6d to 8s 2d ; others down to 6s 4d; mixed two-tooths, 5s 7d to 8s 4d ; crossbred ewes, mixed ages, 5s 6d to 6s 6d; sound mouthed breeding ewes, 7s ; aged sorts, 3s lid to ss.

Pigs.—Good entry, mostly stores. Decided improvement in demand for baconers and porkers of the better kind, which may be quoted at 3d per lb.

ASHBURTON MARKETS.

The entry at Tinwald on Tuesday con sisted principally of hoggets and breeding ewes. The fat sheep weie few in number, and of inferior quality. Prices were about the same as those obtained last week, if any thing a shade better for good sorts of ewes, and a little lower for lambs. Only a small line of forward turnip sheep, mixed ewes and wether*, were offered, and were easily sold at 93 3d. The attendance of buyers and the public was quite up to the average, and more animation was exhibited than for some weeks past The eutry of cattle and pigs was small, prices very low, and sales, especially of pigs, difficult to m»ke. The following prises were obtained t —Fat cross bred ewes, 5s to 7s 4d ; fat merino, 2a 6d to 5s 3rl; crossbred ewes in lamb, sound mouths, Is 6d ; crossbred hogget 3, 2s 6d, 33 lid, 43 6d, 6s 6J, 7s Id ; crossbred hoggets, two-tooths, 5s SKI, 6s, 7*. 7s 61, 93 4d.
