Journal of Agriculture, Victoria. [10 Aug., 1918. 



As there are a number of four and five year old horses in this branch 

 sound, it may be assumed that the tendency to unsoundness is at any 

 rate diminishing. 

 * The stallion 3.102 was not examined, but he left 42 per cent, of 

 unsound descendants, and of the sound ones, 24 were three years of age 

 or under at time of examination. This horse appears very frequently 

 as the sire of dams in unsound pedigrees. 



The balance of the members of this sub-family show so much unsound- 

 ness that one is forced to the conclusion that the defects are i:)resent 

 in the stallions themselves, and could not be carried entirely by the 

 dams. 



The line with 3.4 at its head is apparently sound, for, in the seven- 

 teen descendants examined, no trace of sidebone was found. 3.41 was 

 from a mare by 6.1, a horse which, from the records, appears to be 

 sound. 



The complete tables for this family are as follows: —
