TO TRAVEL IN THE WA HARAPA DISTRICT,, , FJIHE Pure Clydesdale Stallion, ' Avon. . . AVON ii a bay horso with black points, and Btands 17 hands high, with plenty of Übne and hair. Ho is come of a great family. His dam was sold at 80 guineas when good mares were sold at a fourth of that price. Sho is out of a Blackleg mare—one of a family of four, out of tho same dam, and tho quartette, by Renfrew Jock, were the four best horses ever bred in the Oamaru Distriot. AVON, by Avon Chief (ICO, N.Z.5.8.) bred by iv, Boaj, Esq., I'ciidolton, near Christchurch, out of his famous prize mure Graco Darling (86), by Prince of Kilbride, imported (602). Grace Darling by Prince Charlie, imported (4 and 626). Grace Darling was the best more that ever stood to New Zealand, Slio. has been "rst and champion at Christchuroh many timet, beating tho great Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotlaud, Sho was first at Duueain and in her clan and champion of the yard. In fact her caroor in the ring is unprecedented, AVON'S dam, Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock (133) Imported from Viotoria j % sirs Renfrew, Imported from Scotland; g dam Jess, by Blackleg, imported from Scotland, Renfrew Jock's damlioßC,by Cowden Lad, a famous Clydesdale, imported from Scotland by tiio lato David Kcßbitt. Renfrew Jock was a most successful show horse, Before leaving Victoria he took many_firsts, and he was three years in succession in Oamaru, Timoru and Dunedin, and Champion of tbe yard as well. From this history breeders will recognise that they have in Avon jiot 'only a liorao of good parts, but an Entire of good liueage, a matter altogether different from a good looking horse. '.Che greot point in horso breeding is to have ft sire connected with good families of undoubted character, In 'lie ono case tiio stock will bo uniformly good, while in the other case individuals may surpass, but the general character of the stock will bo inferior and disappointing, Nothing is more grievous to a breeder than to see weeds spring from a good-looking sire.
