On Account of Sir W.D. and Mr W. E. Hunt. AT WAITORU DOWNS, NEAR INVERCARGILL. ON WEDNESDAY, Bth FEBRUARY, 1939. WRIGHT, STEPHENSON & CO, VV LTD, acting under instructions from Sir William and Mr W. E. Hunt, will sell by auction—-30—ONE-SHEAR STUD RAMS. 270—ONE-SHEAR FLOCK RAMS. The Waitoru Romney Stud was reestablished in 1928 with a special selection of the best quality stud ewes yet sold out of the famous Waiorongomai (Mr R. W. Matthews) and Alloa (Mr Q. Donald) flocks, and another selection from the same flocks was secured the following year. Additions of specially selected ewes have been made annually from Waiorongomai. Ewes were also secured from Mr Donald Macdonald’s Edendale flock which was built up largely from the old Bainfield (almost pure Waiorongomai blood) flock and at the, dispersal sale of Messrs Murray Bros.’ Clydevale flock and the Castlerock flock (Trustees late T. L. Barnhill). As Waiorongomai blood predominated in all these studs, the Waitoru Stud can be said today to be practically pure Waiorongomai blood. The first sires used in the stud were secured from Waiorongomai and included the great breeding ram, Waiorongomai 25/28, a son of the great No. 4/21. This ram sired Waitoru 13/30, generally admitted by leading North Island judges who have inspected the flock to be one of the best breeding rams in the Dominion. His dam was an Alloa ewe of pure Waiorongomai blood. After being used with great success at Waitoru for six years, this ram was exchanged for one of the leading sires at Waiorongomai and is now in service there. Several other sons of 25/28 have also been successfully used. The type of sheep bred in the stud today are bold, low set, splendid constitutioned sheep with great weight of bone and ideal covering. Northern buyers have the opportunity' of securing at this Sale Romneys representing the best North Island type but with the heavier bone and greater vitality for which the Southland bred sheep are so widely famous. Nothing has or will be sold privately prior to the sale. All sheep are for unreserved sale. North Island purchases will be placed F. 0.8. Lyttelton at the Vendors’ risk. Catalogues will be available later from the Auctioneers who are prepared to make purchases as directed by absentee buyers. WRIGHT, STEPHENSON & CO, LTD, Wellington, Invercargill and Branches. Nw7oo
