Queensland Sheep and Cattle Market Report of Darling Downs
A detailed auction summary notes a $4,000 sheep lot drawn mainly from Gunnarauna and Darling Downs districts among others. Wethers and lambs saw strong demand with prime weight ewes and carcass beef trading amid fierce competition, while inferior lots sold at lower prices. Calves and cattle also showed active bidding, with meatworks representatives present and firms like Swifts and Tenders competing throughout.
