ASHBURTON MARKETS.

Mr -David Thomas (Mr R. Curtis, auc tioneer) reports upon the live stock market m the Ashburton county for the we 3k ending August l1 :— On Tuesday at the Tinwald yards the usual weekly sale was held. The attendance of farmers, dealers, and others was good, and amongst them' a fair percentage of buyers. The sale began with brisk and spirited bidding, but towards the end became very much easier as the majority of buyers had filled up their re quirements; and a drop of 6d per head was noticed. The class of stock entered was of good quality, principally crossbred hoggets and turnip sheep, also several good lines of breeding ewes. A line of 1600 fat sheep from Southland caused a little excitement. The price they would fetch was a question much speculated upon, hut ib waß soon settled, as they were knocked down to a Christchurch buyer at 17s 3d the line. The total entry for the day consisted of 8448 sheep, 38 head of cattle, and 26 pigs, of which my entry comprised of 2838 sheep, 7 head of cattle, and 8 pigs, which 1 disposed of at the following prices : — 1 fat wether 18s 9d, 27 fat crossbred ewes lis 9d, 9 fat wethers lii^d, 38 fat crossbred ewes lis id, 87 half bred lambs 6s 38 merino ewes 5s 10 ', 70 merino ewes ss, 101 half bred hoggets 6) Bd, 50 crossbred ewes lis 9d, 221 three quarterbred ewes 10a 2d, 256 merino ewes 43 3d, 53 crossbred ewes lis ld, 359 halfbred hoggets 9i lOd, 258 two-tooth crossbred jvethers 12s sd, 356 crossbred hoggets 10s Id, 267 crossbred ewes 13s 328 two and four tooth crossbred wethers 15s 6d, 220 cross bred hoggets 8s 9d* Cattle — 1 fat cow £6. lat 16 7«J 6d, 1 springer £6 10s.

Messrs Friedlander 8r03., Limited, report upon the live stock markeb for the week ending August 11, as follows : — On Tuesday last there was a .good yarding of sheep at t c Tinwald Yards, and the eager way m which every lot offered was bid lor, shows that there are plenty who iequire sheep ior finishing and for lambing down.

OINE WORD, ' I OOME to you with a small affair I that you may need. In England, the Continent, and many foreign countrie myself and -wares are well-known Many American families on their return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but you may not be one of these Confidence between man and man is slow of growth, and when found, its rarity makes it valuable. I ask your confidence and make a reference to this Journal to endorse that confidence. I do not think it will be misplaced, I make the best form of cure — an absolute one — for biliousness and headache that can be found m this year. The cure is so small m it- self, and yet its comfort to you is so great — twenty minutes being its limit when relief couies — that it has become a marvel of its time. One and a half grains of medicine, coated with sngar is my remedy, m the shape of one small pill, known to commerce as Dr Haydock's New Livee Pill. It is old m the market of Europe, but is new to North America. The price is as low as an honest medicine can be sold at, 25 cents. Send a postal card for a sample vial, to try ")hem, before you purchase. DR HAYDOCK, 63 Fulton St , N.Y., NEW ZEALAND DRUG CO., Christchurch,
