FO TRAVEL IN THE WAJRARAPA DISTRICT, JIHE Pure Olydeadale Stallion, Avon. AVON W a bay horse with black points, and itauds 17 bands high, with plenty of bone and iair. Ho is come of a great family. His dam ras sold at 80 guineas whon good marcs were ■old at a fourth of that price. She is out of a Blackleg maro-ona of a family of four, out of tlio same dam, and the quartotto, by Eenfrow Jock, were the four best horses avor bred in tho Oamaru District. AVON, by Avon Chief (150, N.Z.5.8.) bred by \Y. Boag, Esq., Fendalton, near Christchurch, out of his famouß prize nrnro Grace Darling (36), by l'rince of Kilbride, imported (602). Graoo Darling by Prince Charlie, imported (4 and 626), Grace Darling was tho best maro that ovor stood in New Zealand. She has been "rat and champion at Ghristchurch many time#, beating tho groat Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotland. She was first at Dunoain and in her class and champion of tho yard, In fact her career in the ring is unprecedented. AVON'S dam, Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock (135) imported from Victoria ; g sire Eenfrow, imported from Scotland; g dam Joss, by Blackleg, imported from Scotland. Renfrew Jock's damßoso,by Cowden Lad, a famous Clydesdale, imported from Scotland by tho lato David Nosbitt. Renfrew Jook was a moßt successful show horse. Eeforo leaving Victoria he took many firsts, and ho was three years in succession in Oamaru, Timaru and Dunodin, Champion of tho yard as well. From this history breeders will recognise that they havo in Avon not only a horso of good parts, but an Entire of good lineage, a matter altogether different from a good looking horse. Tho great point in horso breeding is to havo a sire connected with good families of undoubted character. In "the one case the stock will be uniformly good, while in tho other caac individuals may surpass, but the general character of the stook will bo inferior and disappointing. Nothing is moro grievous to a breeder than to see weeds spring from a good-looking sire. Terms, £4, payable by P.N. at first service, due January Ist, 1887.
