Stud Stock Specialists Mahua Stud Romneys and Pedigree Hereford Cattle NOTED FOB ITS OUTSTANDING CONSTITUTION. THIS FLOCK IS BRED ON COUNTRY 1,200 ft. ABOVE SEA LEVEL. TRIBUTE FROM THE UNITED STATES. >*•s■ ;>>/ One of the most important importations in recent years, says the IJdaWB.* x 'Vr “Californian Wool Record," was the arrival of a yearling registered ’’Romney ram and a two-year-old registered Romney ewe from New jßjy* . . ’*’* "ssh Zealand, consigned to Dr. E. B. Brownell, Romney breeder, of Sulsun, • ’- " - ■ ' Colano County. Tbo'ram shows he was picked by someone who knew jgr ’«i ' ~ t ’H Romney sheep—the breeder is E. E. Short, whose father pioneered the 0 » it?* -> W- ‘ "in■» M Romneys in New Zealand, and who is credited with the statement that R * r’*-, .i- J ’ ’4 the ram " as not for sale to J ' ew Zealan< l sheepmen, but only for exC ' >.portation. He Is a wonderfully deep-bodied fellow, low Bet on heavy- ’ 1 ' > \ A‘*iSo» '’V j 'jS/TM boned legs—typical of the real Romney. He has a very full brisket, ZZ aMi is rugged with all the ear-marks of a sturdy constitution. In looking over tbc ram and tbe ewC| Brownell pointed out the hoofs are jet ~i» y \ black and the lips and nostrils quite dark—a characteristic of the Romney breed, but often lacking in sheep of mediocre quality. Relative ' jjjjglSS to wool—grabbing a fistful along the back or side of both the ram ‘ Bffl and tbe ewe indicatc <l more than the usual density. The wool seemed sZ ijfIHSWM thicker and also finer than in any of our American Romneys. A close C •>" . jaßjufij examination revealed the evenness of fleece. From the shoulder, the <m Cfiy >Nt . fIiJMIM sides, and even the flank, the wool appeared about the same diameter £ : of fibre. Although Romney wool is usually not so lustrous as the - ' .djjMMj Cotswold or Lincoln, these two sheep of Dr. Brownell's seem especially good in that respect. All in all, the Doctor has two Romneys that are mighty hard to beat. E. E. SHORT “Mahua,” FEILDING, N.Z. Mahua No. 66 of 25. Sold for record price of 600gns. Phone No. 9, FEILDING.
