Manuluke Stud One of the prominent breeders with an offering of distinctive quality is Mr. Jas. Haskins, whose Manutuke Stud has won a high name because it contains among the, best butterfat types available. This .statement is supported by expert opinion, for at the National Jersey Show and Sale in Hamilton last year his previous herd sire, Ivondalc Wail's Hero, secured the grand championship and was sold by Mr. Haskins at 105gns. At the same sale he purchased his present sire, Ivondale Bronze Laddie, of the same famous strain as his former sire The last three of the former's progeny will be offered at the sale on Wednesday. Design Stud The blood of a champion butterfat bull, the proven old sire Sprfnglea Owler Again, and of a champion show bull, Meadowland Squireen, are in Mr. E. R. Bull’s offering from his Design Stud. Two sons of each of the bulls mentioned are to be offered on Wednesday, and as the dams are of great quality and with high butterfat records, the Design Stud’s sale offering should attract more than usual attention. One of the dams has a V.11.C. certificate and another is a production gold medalist, while _ the other two also have won recognition for outstanding performance.
