TO tIiAVEL IN THE .WAIRARAPA DISTRICT, IJIIIE Pure Clydesdale Stallion, Avon. AVON is a bay hoi'so with lilack points, and stands 17 hands high, with plenty of liane ami liair, Ho is como of a great family. His dam was sold at 80 guineas when good mares were sold at a fourth of that price. She is out of a Blacking mare—one of a family of four, out of the same dam, and the quartette, by Renfrew Jock, were the four best horses ever breil in the Oanmu District. AVON, by Avon Chief (150, N.Z.S.U.) bred by w. lioag, Esq., Pcndclton, near Clinstcliurcl), out of his famous prize mine Grace Darling (3D), by l'riucc of Kilbride, imported (1102). Grace Darling by J'lince Charlie, imported (4 and (12!)). Grace Darling was the best mare, that ever stooil in I\ T ew Zealand. She has ken first and champion at Christchurch many time?, beating the great Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotland.' She was iirst at Diuieilin and in her class and champion of the yard. In fact her career in the ring is unprecedented. _ AVON'S dam, Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock (l!i5) imported from Victoria ; g sire Renfrew, imported from Scotland; g dam Jesa, by lilackleg, imported from Scotland. Renfrew Jock's dam Rose, by GWiicn Lad, a famous Clydesdale, imported from Scotland by the David Nesbitt. Renfrew Jock was a most successful show horse, liefore leaving Victoria he took many firsts, and lie was three years in succession iii Oamaru, Timaru end Dunedin, and Champion of the yard as well. From this history-breeders will recognise that, tlioy liave in Avon riot only a horse of good parts, but an Entire of good lineage, a matter altogether different from a good looking horse. The great point in horse breeding is to have a sire connected with good families of undoubted character. In ihc one case the stock will be uniformly good, while in the other case individuals may surpass, but 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 good-looker; sire. forms, £l, payable by P.N, at lirst service, duo January Ist, 18S7, For full information apply to ROBSRT DONALDSON, 2121 Groom in charge.
