"A smaller number of lambs forward cashed in at increased rates on the week for all classes. Another strong trade greeted the ewe vendors today, with an increased number of buyers forward. Meat was in short supply and dearer as too were the feeding types which sold away to a larger than usual ringside of buyers."
