Clearing Sale
The most successful sale ever held by them in the Wimmera, say the
Auctioneers, Messrs HAGELTHORN and BOLTON, was that conducted on Wednesday
at Mr Jas. WILLIAMS farm, Lake Natimuk. A large number attended, and did
justice to the really excellent viands provided by the caterer, Mr CULLIVER,
of Horsham. High prices were realised throughout, and bidding was brisk.
For horses, top price was £42/10/ for a light draught mare, given by Mr R.
WILLIAMS. Draughts sold to nearly £40, and yearling ponies to £7.
Comeback ewes made to 18/ 7d, and milk cows to £7/ 5/.
