ADDINGTON STOCK MARKKT.

Preßß Association— By Electric Telegraph

Christchuroh, April 13 Tiiere were but medium entries m most classes of stock at the Addington market to-day. The attendance was good, but business was anything but brisk. Lhe entries for the day comprised 15,53* sheep and lamb?, 298 head of cattle, and 584 pigs Fat i attlk —The supply of beef, which cousiaterl of 147 head, was just ICO less than were yarded at the corresponding sale last year, contained nothing of ex-ra prime quality, and was more than sufficient for requirements. Although a little improve tnent was noticeable m the tone of the sale, prices showed no improvement. Best steers brought. £6 10a to £7 10d, others down to £4, good hciferß £4 10* to £5 7s 63, others down to £3, cowa from £2 10a to £5 10s. Prices per ICO b - prime beef 153 to 163 6a, medium to good 12a to 143, cow and inferior orts down to 7s. Fat Sheep.— About 5000 fat sheep were on offer, including very fair lines of freezers, for which there was a good demand. Good young ewes quite held their own, and a few aged sorts were taken for preserving. Pricea realised were— Best crossbred wethers 12a 6d to 14s Id, not bo good 9a 4d to 11s 63, mixed wethers and maiden ewes 11s to 12s 9d, maiden eweß 9a to 12s 6(3, good young ewes 6b to 9a 6d, aged sorts 3s 6d to ss. Fat Lambs.— The entry of fat lambs was heavy, and included a fair proportion of freezing quality. The better classes Bold well m spite of the fact that the factories are now almost blocked, owing to scarcity of freights. One buyer for export secured over 2000 good lambs, whinh ruled 7a to 9a 6d, an extra prime lot 10a 4d, butchers' sorts 4s 6d to 6a 6d, backward down to 2s 4d. Htore Sheep.— With the exception of two or three lines of wethers, the yarding of store sheep was mostly of four-tooth, six tooth, and full mouthed oroßsbred ewes. The dry weather and the poor prospects of feed for the winter prevented any specu lation m this portion of the market. Two or three small lines of four and six-tooth wethers changed hands at 5a to 6 3 sd, four tooth wethers from Blenheim 6s Id. Aline of 2,000 two-tooth Lincoln cross wethers from Springfield eßtato was offered but with drawn at auction at 5a 2d. The bulk, how ever, were taken privately afterwards ab 6s 6d. One or two lines of ewes of mixed ages sold from 4a to 53, fair mouthed ewes a«i 3s to 3s 7J, lambs brought from 3s to 4s 6d, a line of 500 going ab the latter figure. Pigs —The fat pig market was well sup plied, but matters remained about as laßt week, baconers averaging 4d per Ib, and porkers a shade more, Baconers ran from 258 to 553 and up to 61s 6d for an extra prime line ; porkers 18* to 32s 6d ; stores 123 to 25s ; and suckers aud weaners from 3-i 6d to 9s 6d.

Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics and Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government i be of perfectly pure origin, as per | information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we tate : — It iB proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prutßia, andreported by Dr. Sohulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr; Mossier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of ds resinous and other substancos, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the sanative qualities proper to the plant \ll crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpentines, which are abandoned long since as an nternal udioament. Theße crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, ate discernible : 1 By their deficiency m pungent odour — which our product, the only genuine Euoalypti Extract develops most freely through its surplus oxygen. By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear- ance being reduced m specifio density through the presence of acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resina and tennates.
