Price Five Bbillinga. LONDON : PRINTED BY WILLIAM CLOWES AND SONS, LIMITED, STAMFORD STREET AND ChARING CROSS. PREFACE. In issuing to the Fellows of the Royal Geographical Society and the public the fifth edition of Hints to Travellers it is desirable to give some account of the various changes the work has gone through before reaching its present form. As long ago as 1854 the Council of the Society, in consequence of the frequent questions addressed to them by intending travellers, requested the late Admiral Pitzroy and Lieutenant Raper, R.N., to consider what instrumental outfit might best be recommended to explorers. Their report, together with suggestions submitted to them by Admirals Smyth and Beechey, Colonel Sykes and Mr. Francis Galton, was printed in vol. xxiv. of the Journal of the Society, and separately circulated in pamphlet form under the title of ' Hints to Travellers.* The exhaustion of this first edition led, in 1864, to the revision and enlargement of the original work by a Committee of Council, consisting of Sir George Back, Admiral Collinson and Mr. Francis Galton. Their ' Hints ' were prefaced by the remark that they were addressed to a person who, proposing to explore a wild country, asks what astronomical and other scientific outfit he ought to take with him, and what observations he may attempt with a prospect of obtaining accurate results. Hints on Photography by Dr. Pole, and on the Collection of Objects in Natural History by Mr. Bates, were added. The success of this volume resulted in the publication, in 1871, of a third edition under the same editorship. This edition was followed in 1878 by the fourth, published under the sole editorship of Mr. F. Galton. and in a new form more convenient for pocket use. This, in its turn, has recently become exhausted. IT PREFACE. In preparing a fifth edition the Council have been anxious to increase the usefulness of the volume, and to make it meet the in some ways higher requirements of a new generation of young travellers, many of whom receive scientific instruction in the Society's office before leaving Eng land. To this end, Mr. F. Galton being unable again to take charge of the work, an Editorial Sub-Committee was appointed to remodel the ' Hints,' subject to the general direction and advice of a large Committee of Council. The first object of those charged with the direction of this edition has been to furnish such help as may be possible within the compass of a convenient pocket-book to the intelligent explorer who, in the hope of obtaining from his travels valuable geographical results, has been at some pains to acquaint himself with the use of instruments. The Hints on Surveying, the principal portion of the work, have been placed in the hands of Mr. Coles, late R.N., the Society's Map-Curator and Instructor in Practical Astronomy and Surveying, who has taken great trouble both to add such new matter as his experience in teaching and travel lead him to consider requisite, and to combine and rearrange the Hints given in the earlier editions by various scientific explorers. Many travellers, however, have not the natural disposition or the train ing necessary for this branch of observation. The Editors have desired therefore to direct the attention of these to the several ways in which, at a trifling expense of well-directed energy, they may add to the daily interest of their travels, and bring home results valuable to science. With this object the Hints on Collections in Natural History have been expanded, and Hints on how and what to observe in other sciences, Geology and Anthropology, have been added by Mr. W. T. Blanford and Mr. E. B. Tylor respectively. The section on Photography has been re written by Mr. W. P. Donkin, who has, in the High Alps, had exceptional experience in taking photographs under circumstances of great difficulty, both as to transport and exposure. Since the success, and therefore the scientific result, of every journey PREFACE. V depends primarily on the health and suitable equipment of the members of the expedition, the Editors decided further to enlarge the scope of the work by supplying Hints on Medical Treatment and Precautions, and on General Outfit. The former, drawn up by Surgeon-Major Dobson, will, it is believed, be found of great value, and are recommended to the best attention of travellers. In a work of this character numerous omissions must of necessity be discovered. In order to reduce their number and importance as far as possible, it has throughout been the aim of the Editors not only to intrust each chapter to a competent hand, but also to provide for its being read and revised before publication by high independent autho rities in the same branch of knowledge. This course could not have been carried out without the cordial assent and co-operation of their responsible contributors, to whom, as well as to the many gentlemen who have given the benefit of their advice, the Council desire to return their grateful acknowledgments. After careful consideration, it has seemed best to the Editors to supply a full Table of Contents in place of an Alphabetical Index. The arrange ment of the book is such that no one who uses it seriously is likely to lie at a loss where to look for the particular heading he may require. Any corrections or additions which may suggest themselves to readers should be communicated to the Secretary of the Society, 1, Savile Row, W., for the use. of the Editors of the next Edition. H. H.

To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

    COMPILED SPECIFICALLY FOR Tempo BROODMARE ANALYSIS REPORT A broodmare’s nicking analysis with up to 50 potential stallions Copyright © 2011 The Jockey Club Information Systems, Inc. BROODMARE ANALYSIS REPORT TrueNicks: An Explanation Nicks in History Compatibilities between stallions from one sire line with mares of another sire line has helped shape the breed since the Eclipse/Herod cross of the late 18th century. These successful crosses, called nicks, have impacted Thoroughbred development through such examples as Hermit/Stockwell, Lexington/Glencoe, Bend Or/Macaroni, and Phalaris/Chaucer. In the modern era, the prolific Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer cross has produced outstanding racehorses and sires such as Kingmambo, Distorted Humor, and Elusive Quality. Fast-Forward to the 21st Century Computer databases have made it possible to measure and rate nicks, giving rise to a commercial market for such statistics. The first nick ratings offered to the public, though popular, were compromised by incomplete data and yielded results based on hypothetical rather than actual opportunity. This statistical gap was the impetus behind the development of TrueNicks. A Statistically Valid Approach Unlike other ratings that are calculated based on hypothetical opportunity within a limited group of horses, TrueNicks references the international database of The Jockey Club—the world’s most complete record of Thoroughbreds and their performance—to produce a sophisticated rating based on all starters and stakes winners on a given cross. The Statistics The TrueNicks rating is derived from two statistical elements: the Sire Improvement Index (SII) and the Broodmare Sire Improvement Index (BSII). Each figure compares the percentage of progeny stakes winners to starters.
