Charters Towers Combined Agents yarded a total of 1,957 Prime cattle

consisting of 915 Bullocks, 324 Heifers, 461 Cows and 257 Bulls.

The yarding consisted largely of plainer cattle displaying the impact of hot, dry conditions. Competition remained strong for better-finished stock whereas interest in the plainer types was noticeably softer.

The yarding was drawn from Croydon, Mt Garnet, Normanton, Karumba, Chillagoe, Winton, Richmond, Hughenden, as well as local and coastal areas.
