“ROYTON” JERSEYS

TYPE AND PRODUCTION

OFFERING NEXT WEEK.

Comprising all the in-milk females, • total of fifty head, the dispersal Dale of the “Royton” Jersey Stud, the property of :Mr Harold Moreland, at iNewstead on June 11, should prove an undoubted attraction to Jersey breeders generally. Two of the offering are holders of the coveted V.H.C. title, the highest award under type classification, while the majority of the others old enough for classification hold lI.C. records. Practically all have good official Herd Test records under everyday dairy conditions. Several of the heifers are by that phenomenal butlerfat sire, Fairy Flag’s Raleigh (Imp.), C. 8.8., whose daughters hold a world’s record production average, while others are by Mr Moreland’s own bull, Eminenta’s Fairy Lad (Imp.), who is 80 per cent the same blood as the Beechland’s recordbreaker. The other Royton herd sire, Coronation King Financier (Imp.), who is represented by some very desirable heifers, is a son of 'Coronation’s Daisy, R.0.M., G42lb fat in 305 days as a junior two-year-old, one of the greatest daughters of Coronation’s Oxford King, America’s leading sire for combined type and production. Such outstanding sires as the Soumise Majesty bull, Hawkesbury Gale, who left many splendid daughters including the well-known champion, Beechland’s Queen Mab, V.H.C., are the sires of the older cows. A big number of the offering are in calf to the two imported sires, a fact which should be a stimulus to buyers who arc seeking the opportunity of securing some of the most celebrated overseas blood.
