Record price at Dorset sale

Goldsbrough Mort & Co. Ltd reports a highly successful dispersal sale of Mr. D. E. Cremasco's Honey View Dorset Horn stud at Finley. Despite bad weather, buyers from New South Wales and Victoria competed strongly. A seven months old ram lamb sold for 200 guineas to K. G. Luke of Deepfields Romsey, a likely world record for its age. A total of 528 mixed aged ewes cleared at an average 23 guineas, top ewe price 49 guineas. Stud rams also drew keen bidding with a three-year-old sold for 170 guineas to Greenbah Pastoral Co., Moree, and a two-year-old for 120 guineas to J. Renshaw of Binnaway.
