R AM S . 20 Pure Lincoln Shearling Rams, bred by Joseph May, Esq , of Auckland. These Rams, for length of staple, lustre, and stamina, can hardly be surpassed, and are deservedly held in highest favor. 4 Shearling Pubs Lincoln Rams, bred by Messrs. Sutton Bbos., Southland. 4 Foub-Tooth pube -Lincoln Rams bred by Messrs. Sutton Bros., Southland. These breeders for years have commanded the highest rates, from the fact that their wool is highly prized, not only in the English, but also in the French and German markets. The fleece is long, dense, and level, while the sheep are of a strong, healthy constitution. “ CHAMPION,” a 6-tooth Ram, also by the same breeders, winner of the Silver Cups at the Invercargill and Dunedin Shows. 2 Sheabling Rams, bred by J. R. Kirkham, Esq.) of Caiston, Lincolnshire, and imported per “Calypso” to Dunedin in ti e end of October. This flock has been renowned for the length, quality, and quantity of their wool for 150 years, and were considered at the Canterbury Shows the handsomest and most masculine sheep of their type ever imported to the colonies. COTSWOLD. 5 Ram Hoggetts, First Class 5 “ “ Second. Class These Cotswolds are sample pens from J. D. Canning, Esq.’s well-known . Oakbourne Flock. The complete satisfaction which Rams from this flock has given to buyers, and the marked success of their crosses on the “downs,” for weight of wool and constitution, render comment here almost unnecessary. This breeder’s “ Champion ” of the Longwools of a previous Show seems to beget like all over, as from the breech to the neck the wool is wonderfully level, and of a clear, strong fibre.
