finely bred young matrons as can be befound found on any single breeding farm in this country The mares are now kept on eight different farms and andthe the yearlings on four different farms far apart and yet within a few miles of Melbourne for it is my lied opinion that strictly highclass race horses can be bred with more succes if kept apart in small ts rather than banded together in large numbers numbersMares Mares kept in box stalls well bedded down the charges will be 10 per month when running on onrass rass 3 which must be considered a very low price considering the established reputation the Tiel Tielournd ournd Stud has for the care of its stallions mares and all thoroughbred stock It is a practice at the theMelbourne Melbourne Stud to try the mares three times a week until the first of June and after that time every day dayuntil until the season closes July 1st which is a guarantee that every mare will be got in foal if care and andattention attention will accomplish this end Dsual return privilege if horse is alive and in my possession y For catalogue and further information address W S BARNES Proprietor Lexington T y
