At Sifley fair in Berks on Monday last a fair turnout occurred with heavy sales though prices were lower than at any fair this year. The rise in wages from 4s to 5s and 5s to 6s per day is blamed on late imports from the West Indies, not by higher living costs. Prices for beef are said to fall due to a turnip failure, with expectations of cheaper stock at future fairs.
