It will be seen from the abs-vo that the stout-hearted Fisherman lias been evcu nv>ro to the Australian Tint than Traducer to the New Zealand. The fact that Piscatorious is the only Fisherman and Traducer nick obtainable should be sufficient to entitle him to the respect of breeders. Yearlings by Piscatorious, out of Thoroughbred mares, wou'd bring at auction from 100 to 150 guineas in any part oi the world. Owners of mates who are desirous to breed high priced youngsters should stick to winning strains and put their mares to a horse bred on the lined of wh:so breeding alone would command him a big season in any part of the world. Pkcatoiious' first get whon a yearling brought 250 guineas. He was shipped to Sydney to take part in the big two-year-old events of New South Wales and Victoria, and since ho lulled in Sydney lie has been purchased at the high figure of 700 guineas by a well-known New Smith Wa ! es sportsman. After his pei formance in the Hawker bury Guineas in September the 1, T0 , .vu& Country Journal" stated that the owner of Kiiijifis'li had refused an olfer of four liguivs for the colt.

ill Iliuvkos B-iy Pi-.catorioas has obtained Champion Prizes ho years in succession, and 1:0 matter what olasi of mare pttronisos him, the breeder is sure to pet something that will recoup him for his outlay, on account of his puroncss of Wood, size and substance. J lis two-year-olds in llawkcs Bay, cut of average marcs, cannot be purchased under CO guineas. Hermit is by Hcwminstcr, by Touchstone, Blood will tell. Pkatorious has more pure Touchstone Hood coursing through his veins than any otho ■ lior.« hung. It is no idle boast to say th't Fisca'.onous is the lust b ed fire south of the Ims, for undoubt edlylioia, and, moreover, he is in every respect what his pedigree would imply—a magniliccnt stamp of a thoroughbred racehorse, possessing great power, and full of stout and fast blood. No donbt the Hon, J, White's big success is through keeping strictly to winning strains. The best horse he ever owned was Trident, by Kobinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman. Some sportsmen aver that it is 11 White's luck." It is no such thing. It is his sound sens?, and gooJ judgment, that earrys that gentleman through. There Uno secret in th* matter, and ho knows that to breed winners, it is necessary to slick to winning families. In color Piscatormus is a beautiful dark brown, with black points, scantling 16 hands 2iu high, has a neat expressive head (never a neater or cleaner bead sot on a neck), im'Titivc of a g.-od temper.

[SJ,2x\ TO TRAVEL IN THE WAIRARAPA DIS;' TRICT, fHB Pure Clydeailnlc Stallion, Avon. AVON is a bay horse with black points, and stands 17 hands high, with plenty of bone and hair. He is come of. a great family. His dam was sold at 800 guinea when good marcs wcio sold at a fuuilii of that price, She is out of a Blackleg marc—one of a family of four, out of the same dam, and the quartette, by Renfrew Jock, wot the four best horses ever bred in the Oitmaru district, AVON, by Avon Chief (150, N.Z.5.8.) bred by AY. lloag, E.-.q., Fendalton, near Christchurch, out of liis famous prize marc Grace Darling (30), by Prince of Kilbride, imported (002). Grace Darling, by Prince Charlie, imported (-1 and 020). Grace Darling was the best marc that ever stood in New Zealand. Sho lias been first and Champion at Cbristcburcb many times, heating the great Maggie Craig, Champion of Scotland. .She was first in Duncdin in her class and champion of the yard. In fact her career is unprecedented. AVON'S dam, Gipsy, by Renfrew Jock (135) imported from Victoria; g sire. Renfrew, imported from Scotland; g dam Jess, by Blackleg imported from Scotland. Renfrew Jock's dam Uosij, by Crowden Lad, a famous Clydesdale, imported from Scotland by. tho Into David Nesbitt, Renfrew Jock .was a most successful show horse. .More leaving"Victorii' he took many firsts, and he was tlireo years in succession in Oamani,'Timaru and Duncdin, and Champion of tho yard as well. From this history breeders will recognise the t they have in Avon not only a horse of good parts, but an Entire 6t 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 caso tho stock will be uniformly good, while in the other case individuals may surpass, but the general chaiacter of the stock will be inferior and disappointing, Nothing is more grievous to a breeder thb to sec weeds spring from a good looking sue.
