“A small number of new season and old season lambs were forward. New season lambs slightly easier on week and a very mixy show of old season were had to cash as most companies have made the transition into new season lambs. Well fleshed hoggs are still keenly bid for, however lesser rates than of late, A great number of ewes again forward this week from all over the north. Strong well fleshed ewes of all breeds still sell past seller's expectations.”
*Notice to Vendors*
Could all vendors of prime lambs please deliver their lambs to the Mart before 10.30 A.M. to allow us time to have them clipped prior to the start of the sale. Thank You.
