TO TRAVEL IN THE WA' RARAPA . DISTRICT, rjlHB Pure Clydosdalo Stallion, Avon., AVON is a bay horse with black points, and 'stands 17 hands bigh, With plenty of bono and hair. He is comeofa great family;. His dam was sold at 80 guineas when good mares were sold at a fotirfch of that price, '' Sho is out of |a Blackleg mare—-one of a family of four, out of the same dam, and the quartette, by Renfrew Jock, wero the four best horses ever bred in theOamaru District, AVON, by Avon Chief (100, N.Z.5.8.) bred y Vi. Boag, Esq., I'endalton, near Clmstchurch, out of his famous prize mare' Grace Darling (36), by Prince of Kilbride, imported (602). Grace Darling by Prince Charlie, imported (4 and 626), Grace Darling to the best mare that over stood in New Zealandi She has been "rat and champion at Christchurck many times, beating the great Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotland.

AVON'S dam, Gipay, by Renfrew Jock (135) imported from Victoria ; ■ g siro Renfrew, imported from Scotland; g dam Jess, by Blackleg, imported from Scotland. Renfrew Jock's damßose, by Cowden Lad, a famous Clydesdale, imported from .Scotland by the lato David Nesbitt. Renfrew. Jock was a most successful sbow'horse. Before leaving Victoria betook many firsts, and lie was three years in succession in Oamaru, Timaru and Dunedin, and Champion of the yard as well, From thia history breeders will recognise that icy have in Avon not 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 the one case the stock will be uniformly good, while in tho other case individuals may surpass, but the general character of the stock will bo inferior and disappointing, Noth ing is more gnevous to a breeder than to Bes weeds spring from a good-looking sire. fcrms, £4, payable by P.N. at first service, duo January let, 1887.
