TO FLOCKOWNERS. r !PHE Undersigned beg to acquaint Sbeep FarJL mers and o ihers that tbey expect to receive by the " Blanche," from London, a shipment of Pure Blood Saxon (not Mecklenberg) Merino Rams and Ewes direct from the Breeders, which they are instructed to offer for sale. Tbese Sheep are selected from pure Saxon Electoral and Escurial, Negretti Flocks noted for Wool of long, fine, close and even staple, that bave repeatedly had Prizes awarded them at the Agricultural Exhibitions at Berlin, Dresden," Leipzig, Munich and oilier places. They are descended from tbe celebrated sheep of Rothshonberg, the Royal Flock of Lohmen, and the flock of his Excellency President of Crosigk, — all of Saxony. — The Shippers are desirous to iniroduce to New Zealand (and of continuing to do so), the pure Saxon Merino, that for 30 years past they have been sending to Ausiralia and the Cape, so that Flockowners may observe the superiority of this Breed of Sheep to that of any other ; as it is an established fact, known to all wool dealers and manufacturers in Great Britain and elsewhere that the wool of first closs Saxon flocks, always realizes higher prices than wool from any Mecklenberg flock whatever. The Undersigued are authorised to state that the average weight of washed wool shorn of the flocks trom whicb the selection* have been made, is 4 lbs. for Ewes and fully 7 lbs. for Rams ; they are also in possession of .-samples of the -Wool and Photographs of the animals, and will be glad to furnish nteuding purchasers with full particulars.
