From this history bradeui will recognise,that tlicy Imvc in Avon not oidy a home of good parts, but ail Kntire'of good lineage, a matter altogether different from a good looking horse. The great point in horso breeding is to have a sire connected with good families of undoubted character. In the one case the stock will be uniformly good, while in the otkr case individuals may surpass, hut the general character' of the stock will be inferior and disappointing. Nothing is more grievous to a breeder than to see weeds spring from a gcod-lookii'g sire. Terms, i'l, payable by P.N, at first service, due January Ist, ISS7, For full information apply to , .
