TO; TRAVEL IN THE WA'IRARAPA :: :-V;:' DISTRICT,'..;. mHEPiiro Clydesdiilo Staliion, AVON is n bay liorso with black points, and stands 17'lmiuls high, with plenty of bone and hair, lie is come of a great family. His dam was sold at 80 guineas when Rood marcs' were 6old at a fourth of that price, Sho is out of a Blackleg marc-ono of a family of four, oui of tho saniß dam, awl tho .quartette, by Kenfiw Jock, were tho four best horses ever bred in the Oamara District, AVON, by Avon Chief (150,- N.Z.5.8.) bred by w. lioag,; Esq., Fcmlalton, near Chribt- . church, out of his famous prizo maro Grace Darling (3(i), by l'rince of Kilbride, imported (GO2). Grace Darling by Prince Charlie, imported (1 and 020). Grace Darling was the best maro that ever stood in New Zealand, Sho lias been first and champion at Cliristchtircli many times, beating the great Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotland. Sho was first at Duncilin and in hor class and champion of the yard, In fact her career in the ring is unprecedented. _ AVON'S dam, Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock (135) imported from Victoria ; g sire Renfrew, imported from Scotland; g dam Jess, by Blackleg, imported from Scotland, ltcnfrow Jock's dam Ruse, by Cowden Lad, a famous Clydesdale, imported from Scotland by' the late David Ncsbitt. Renfrew Jock was a most successful show horse. Before leaving Victoria he took many firsts, and ho mt three years in succession in Oamatu, Timaru and Duncdin, and Champion of the yard as well, From this history breeders will recognise that they havo in Avon not only a horse of good parts.but an Entire of good lineage, a mattor altogotlicr different from a good looking liorso, The great point in liorso breeding is to have a siro connected with good families of undoubted character, In ihe one case tho stock will be uniformly good, while in tho other case individuals may surpass, but the general character of the stock will be inferior and Nothing is more grievous to a breeder than to see weeds spring from a good -looking sire.
