ADDINGTON MARKRT.

Chkistchurch, July 7, The eotriea in a;i clts^es of slock Ht c Addington market were small, except in the case of fat sheep, which again cime forward ia large numbers, and many lines which arrived by the morning train were unlrur ked and classed while the sale was proceeding. The entries for the diy comprised 12,243 sheep and lurabs, 298 heid of cattle, and 322 pigs. Fat.Cattly.v • t)t the 166 head of cattle itbout 50 were ia dealers' hand", aad were dealt with privately. The c included some very prime &t< era. The ott'e which came to auction were mostly light weight steers and h> ifers, the latter predominating. The Bale was extremely dull, and at first pen af er pen were passed without a bi<'. Only a small proportion of the entry change.! hands. Beat be^f realised f com 16s to 17s 61 per 1001b, and inferior to medium ]2s 61 to 15a. Prices per head were— teers £4 17s 6d to £7, heifers £3 12s 6d to £5 7s 6J ; and cows £3 10s to &6 15s. Fat Sheep.—The yards set apart for this department were unable to provide accom modation for tho large entry, and sever.. 1 Hoes were paced in the store pens. Ihe yarding included a fair proportion of really prime ireez°rs, but there were a good many sorts not by any means finished, and rather more ewe mutton of a poorer class than waa required. Considering the fact that the cables from London announce that the stores there are full of frozen muttou, aud that the factories here are experiencing considerable difficulty in getting sufficient space to carry away their output, and have (heir chambers almost blocked, freezers sold very well, and suitable weights fully upheld last weeks quotations. Heavy weights, however, were easier by 6d per head, as buyers for orders are restricted *a carcases which will kill out from 48'b to 721b. Any lines that were not quite finished, aud ewes that showed the slightest signs of being flashed, met poor competition. Only the very best classes of butchers' mutton were in request, half finished and aged ewea being a perfect drug. Several lines were withdrawn. Amongßl the largest lines of freezing sheep were 850 crossbred wethers sent by Mr Q. Rutherford, Dalethorpe, Prime heavy weight wethers brought l-63 6d to 17s, freezing sheep 12a 9J to l&s 9d, according to weight and fleece ; mixed we!hers and maiden ewes, not quite finished, 12a 9d to 14i ; butchers' best heavy weight ewes, 10a to 123 2 I, the lattei price being obtained In the earlier part of the sale medium 7s to 93 ; merino wethers, 6s 7d to 10s 2d, and ewes 4s 3d to 6i 9J, Fat Lambs.—The market tor this clasa is over for the reason. Only uome four or five pens were forwarded, and these were taken for butchers' purposes at from 83 to 10a. Store SHEEP.-Only a few small lots were yarded, and these sold fairly wt>l . Turnip wethers brought 11s lOd to 12s 3d, and some small two-tooths 9a 5d ; crossbred ewea in lamb, 7a 91 to 7s 10.1; lambs 63 7.1 to 8? Id ; aid merino wethers 3s 3J. Pigs —The bulk of the pigs were prim fat sorts, including a line of halfbred Tmn worths and twenty-five splendid Berkshires from Snnnyside Asylum, both of which realised 47s per head. For better class baconers and porkers prices ruled from A^a to 4d per Ib. There was a district nee on late quotations. Baconers 29s 6d to 48a 6d, porkers 17s to 295, good stores 8a to 10a 6d.
