ADDINGTON STOCK MARKET.

! Chbistcbuboh, December 1. 1 The entries in nearly all classes of stock at Addington market to-day were smaller i than last week. The attendance wu good, and a* a consequence of the splendid rain of the previous day, farmers and grwiers spoke in Ims gloomy tones ot the prospects than was the o»se the previous week, All round the stock looked much better than was expected. Business generally assumed a better tone than at the previous w«ek> sale. The entries for the day comprised 6574 sheep and iambs, 357 head of cattle, and 498 pigs. Fat Cattle.—For this department, the entry of beef was made up of 213 head, of which between fifty and sixty were in dealers', hands. Those whion came t* auction included some very prime steers and heifers, mostly small, but many were really prime. There was good competition for the heavier classes of beef. Butchers were anxious to secure Christmas supplies, but the lighter sort* were not much in request. As showing how short beef is. in South Canterbury, it may be stated that a line of.. twenty dealers' steers was bought privately ! for trucking to Temuka. Pricts per head were—ordinary steera, £5 to £715s ; heifers, £3 10s to £6 7u 6d ; cows, £3 to £6 2» 6rl. Per 1001b, prices were about the same as last week, viz:—l6a to 18t jfor prime beef ■, 14a to 15s for good; and 12s to 13j 6d cow and inferior. Store Cattle—This department was poorly represented both v to numbers aud quality. Very little buainess was done at auction. Not many dairy cows were in, and no better demand wu manifested. £4 was the best price realised. Fair cows were ob tainable at £2 to £3. Fat Sheer—Between 3,000 and 4,000 fat iheep were entered. The quality was a decided improvement on the late sales. The entries included quite 1,000 really good fret zing wethers, and a fair proportion of good ewes; bat still there was a lot of un finished and aged ewts. The market opened rather better than last, week in all classes, but as the sale progressed any ewe mutton of not undeniable quality soon «»bm down to last week's level, and before the sals cloned became a perfect drug; but the majority of the vendors seemed prepared to accept the position rather than risk future Hales, and quitted consignments in several iustancee. However, the market was erratic and in a, few cases, even to warns the end of the sale, penw of inferior ewes brought more ihau tome better ones had done. Butchers went into competition with export buyers for better lots of freezing wethers, but the expos lere were not anxious to s'oure much, and would only touch ihe very primest, which sold fairly well, considering the un*. jiv isfuetory news ftum the home markets. A fairiy large line ot quarterback weihers, whic'i showed rath, r much merino, could not find buyers. Best crossbred wethers, iCs to 12s ; medium, 8b to 9i 64 ; best cross bred «we«j, 8s to 9' 6(1; medium 8* to 9s 6d ; beat crossbrod ewea, 8s to 9s 6d ; medium, 8s to 9-s 6<3; aged and inferior, 2* 6Ho 5s 6d. Fat Lambs—Butchers' lambs ro-e from !«■. to Is 6d ; best; sorts ran from 10a to lls 7d ; good 8s 6d to 9s 9d ; and inferior 7s to 83 ; only a very few, which should not have been in the fat pens, going beSow that price.

Stores Hhkbp—Very few sheep were on offer, and little disposition was shown to do Uisinees, the only- sales of importance being .. 295 shorn wethers at 7s 9d, and 460 shorn crossbred ewes, with backward lambs, all counted, at 2«t lid.

Pigs—There were rather more pigs offered. Fats were well repiesented, selling at fully laßt week's prices, viz-, 3jsd to 4d for porkers, and 3£d to 3|d for baconere. Good stores were in full request, selling up to 30s, whilst weaners brought from 8a to 12s 6d per head. Baconere ran from 29s to 495, and porkers from 20s to 27s 6d.

CYCLING.

Press Association—By Electrio Telegraph— Ohristchurch, December 1. ' A well-known gentleman has offered the League ot Wheelmen a shield, the winner of which will be entitled to £1 a week as long as he can hold. it against all challengers. The donor of the shield agrees to pay £100, equal to two years' payment. The only stipulation is that the League shall maintain its present principles regarding the govern ment of cycling, and that the shield shall bear the name of the donor. The acceptances ' for the New Zealand wheel race close on December 11, The nominations number 57 —the largest entry received in the colony.

Among the applicants for the poet of harbormaster at Waitara was a humorist, who uffecied to be inter alia a model book keeper, 'a lightning tally clerk, and an expert shorthand writer. Then he went on to say ; —" The Chairman will always find mo hie right-hand man incase of a heated discus sion, as 1 have bad practical experience as' a chuoker-out; one wink, lam all there, and in future we will at least have order. The rendering of accounts, and especially the collecting, I have always looked upon as. an Arab looks upon an oasis in the desert—to think about and sigh for. If there are many I of I hose red-letter days, what a dream of pleasure will be mv work! The duties of Collator cf Customs come under the same , heading. As long as there is Fomething to i collect it seems to appeal to my better I nature, and certainly if anything is neg lected this will not. . . It has been a ! standing disgrace that weeds and all sorts , of unsightly things grow anil accumulate on Waitara wharf. Gardening is my hobby, I never regret gettiug up at four o'clock on a fine morning to do a bis of weeding. la juture the weeds will have a bad time of is |in Waitara. I hwe no donbt in summer,, I when the river is low, while I take my bath, this time might be utilised iv removing a few | boulders in the channel."

Holloway's Pills and Ointment.—The most effectual cure fur gout and rheumatism. -A frequent cause of these complaints is he inflammatory state of the blood, : attended with bad digestion, lassitude and great debility, showing the want of proper circulation of the fluid, and any impurity of the blood greatly aggravatesth^se disorders. Holloway's Pills are of so purifying a nature that a few doses taken in time are an effectual preventive against gout and rheumatism, but anyona who has an attack of either should use Holloway's Ointment also, the powerful properties of which, combined with the effects of the Pills, ensure a certain cure. The Ointment should be thoroughly rubbed into the parte affected »t least twice a day, after they have : been sufficiently fomented with warm water [to open the pores to faciliate tbe ictro , duotion of the Ointment to the gland*.
