(TE K ABU RANG I) ITVL'NDINCi there ia a strong feeling to retain the services of Somnus in this District, and wißhiog to use biai ourselves to a greator extent than before, th* Pioprietors have arranged to send the son of "The Painter" to Efowke's Bay. where he j will serve at a fee of Seven GuiueHS for j Thoroughbreds, and Five Guineas for Crossbrejs. Tfrfc Celebrated ThoroughbredJChampion ■priza winner, SOMNUS (sire of Dudu, I FoXton, Cyclone, Miuuie, Waiter and a ( j host of other most promising youngsters, I somn of which wilt, no doubt, in the com | ing racing season afford additional proof I of the value of this fir3t class sire) will therefore staud ab the Proprietors' stud stables, Feilding, this season, commencing Monday, the 2nd, September. J We have stuck to S mnus, because on his size, breeding, performances, and beautiful symmetry, we believed he was destined to become a Great Horse ; and we have uo doubt whatever now, that like his illustrious sire '' Traduce r," and the great "Musket," Somnus inherits that great power possessed by so few sires, of transmitting his excellent qualities to his progeny, that wejmean to stick to him still, notwithstanding the tempting overtures that have been made for him, not in New Zealand (because he was bred here), but from America, where bis old stable companion and near relation, '* Sir Modred,';' has attained such a high reputation aa..a Sire, and from other parts of "the world whefe the fame of Somnus has reached. We did intend to charge a fee of Ten Guineas all round this season, butfrom representations made by some of our friends that they were unable to pay so muoh for Hack mares, we have decided to reduce the fee on the following scale, '.viz.: — Ist Glass Thoroughbreds, Ten Guineas. Claaa C., Seven Guineas. ' ; ! A limited number of good Hack mareß, • Five Pounds ten shilling Paddooking (if required) 2a per week. Choice mares can be fed as per agreement. Guarantees as per agreement „'•;'. Allowance made for two or tnore'mnres, the property of, one owner. , Mares left at the Proprietors' Homestead, Foxton, will be forwarded to Feilding free of coßt.
