rO TRAVEL IN THE WARABAPAI DISTRICT, mflE Pure Clydesdale Stallion, Avon. AVON is a bay home with black points, and Btiwdn 17 hands high, -with plenty of bone and haii'. He is corao of a great family, His dam was sold at SO guineas when good marcs were sold at a fourth of that price, Sho is out of a Blackleg of a family of four, out of the same dam, and tho quartette, by Ronfrew Jock, were the four best horses ever bred in the Oamaru District. AVON, by Avon Chief (150, N.Z.5.8.) bred by w. Boag, Esq., Fendalton, near Christehnrcb, out of his famous priro mare Graco Darling (36), by Trinco of Kilbride, imported (602), Grace Darling by Prince Charlie, imported (4 and 626), Graco Darling was tho best man that ever stood in Now Zealand. Sho lias been "rst tnd champion at Christohurch many timet, beating the great Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotland.

AVON'S dam, Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock (138) imported from Victoria ; g sire Ronfrew, imported from Scotland; g dam Jess, byßlaoklag, imported from Scotland. Ronfrew Jock's damßoeo, by Cot den Lad, a famous Olydosdale, imported from Scotland by the late David Nesbitt. Renfrew Jock was a most suocosaful show horse, Before learlng Viotoria he took many firsts, and he m three years in succession in Oamaru, Timaru and Duncdin, and Champion of the yard as woll, From this history breeders will recognise that they hare in Avon not only a horse of good altogether different from a good looking horse. The great point in horse breeding is to bare a sire connected with good families of undoubted character, In the one case the stock will bo uniformly good, while in the other caso individuals may surpass, but tho general character of the stock will be inferior and disappointing. Nothing is more grievous to a breeder than to tee weeds spring from a good-looking sire, Terms, £4, payable by P.N. at first service, due January Ist, 1887.
