Stud Notices THE-PUREBKED CLYDESDALE :STALLIO>:, Kins? of Quality, WILL STAND at Owner's Farm, Willow by, and Travel Longbeach, Wakanui, Ashburton Forks, and Wester- fild Districts. Will be ab Newmans Stables every Saturday. Kino or Qttamty is a dapple bay, rising six yeata old, bred by Mr R» G&wn, North Taieri. He is a colt of great substance and power, with mary points to recom mend him to a breeder j has splendid feeb and pasterns, also great bone, clean and flowing, with nice silky h&lr — the trae badge of a well bred Clydesdale. He is a prime mover, has good temper, and sound constitution. His Bire is Lion King, by British Lion, Imported by Mr Hngh Rae, from Scotland, by Argyle (2567 vol vi), dam Darling, by Prince of Wales (673, vol I), grand dam Maggie, by Lochend Champion (448, vol I). Lion King was first at Dnnedin Show as a three-year-old, first at Dunedin m 1894 and 1895, for horse with three of his pro* geny. Lion King's dam Scotch Annla (imported from Scotland, 343, N Z 8 B), was a mare belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of blood. She was shown In New Zealand four times, gaining first and champion upon eaoh occasion. Her sire was Ivanhoe 2nd (299, 80 S B), grand eire Ivanhoe Ist (Imported ; 113, NZ S B). He was got by the great Sir Walter Scott, whose breeding needs no comment. Lion King's sire, British Lion, is so favorably known as to need no com- meat. He was considered by competent judges to be one of the best horses ever la- ded m New Zealand. King of Quality's dam, Que^n of Quality, (608, N Z S B) show yard career ie co well and favorably Imown to breeders, , that it is needless to go into details ; suffice it to Bay, she has taken fourteen first prizes and seven champions ; among the others she was champion mare at the Exhibition show, Danedin. This career has stamped her as a mare of nnusual excellence ; her sire is the far famed Lord Salisbury, who retired from the show ring an unbeaten horse. Queen of Quality's dam Jess, by Ivanhoe (imp. ; 113, S.B ) King of Quality as a yearling gained first prize at Taieri show and second at Dunedin. It will be seen from the above that King of Quality is descended from the purest strains of prize-taking Clydes- dale blood, and cannot fail to make a name for himself as a sire. Has proved himself In this district as a sure foal getter. Terms :— Guarantee —£4 4s. Season mares, £3 3s. doomage fee, ss. All mares changing hand?, first owners held responsible.
