It is therefore one of the longestestablished flocks in New Zealand, and throughout the 33 years’ of its existence, great care has been taken to maintain the purity, quality , and constitution of- the Flock. In 1906 Mr Rodger imported at considerable expense two Rams from Mr A. Finn, Kent, England, namely, “Westbroke, No. 84 of 1905” and “Westbroke, No. 78 of 1905,” and these have been used during the seasons 1907-1910. The demand for purebred Romneys was never more, active than at present. The prices realised for Stud and Flock Rams at the Wairarapa Sales held recently were phenomenal, and the demand as far as can be forecasted is likely to remain keen for a considerable time. The Sheep advertised will be sold to the highest bidder and all those interested in purebred Romneys are therefore strongly recommended to attend the Sale of the Blrchwood Flock. The Flock Sheep are strong constitutioned, big framed and well-woolled Romneys and Romney Crosses, and both farmers and pastoralists with tussock country will find them good doers. aO CLYDESDALE MARES AND ££ GELDINGS, comprising—--15 MARES, 3 years to S years old. 1 MARE, aged. 1 GELDING,' 3 year old. 6 GELDINGS, aged (good fresh sorts). -j LIGHT MARES AND OELDINGS, comprising—--1 5-year-old MARE. 1 6-year-old GELDING. 6 Unbroken MARES and GELDINGS 4 BROOD MARES, with foals at foot by "Golden Vein.” The Horses are a superior lot, particularly the Clydesdale Mares ; all are straight out of hard work.
