Thii preparation is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to any thin«r yet discovered for eradicating tick, sorb or lice on sheep, goats orcattle. ItTis sufficient to say that One Shilling Packet of the Powder dissolved in, two buckets of water will wash Eighteen Sheep. This admits the most economial, as woU as the simplest plan in the world for the care and prevention of diseases incident to farm stock. Isy its use the firmer can secure the health of his stock at the rate of |dper head per annum. In all large Sheep District < in Austria, South America, and Africa, no other preparation is ussd. Jhe vermin destroyer is also invaluable for the purpose of the Horticulturist; and it is most extensively used by the Flower and Kitchen Gardener in Europe, America, and the British possessions in all parts of the Globe. One! packet dissolved in two backets of water will servo for over half an acre of ground and will effectually prevent blight and exclude all other garden pests. As a Vermin Killer it is an unrivalled specific. Its use will speedily exterminate all household pests, such as bugs, cockroaches, fleas on animals, moths in furs, and insects on birds of all k nds, from the canary to the poultry. For this purpose simpl and plain direc ions are given on every packet. The powder can also be used in a dry state for the destruction of rats and mice. A little sprinkled on a slice of bread and butter, or a piece of meat or cheese is sought after greedily by those vermin, while the household pots such as cats and dogs will not tou ;h it in any form, and are therefore perfectly safe. The above marvellous discovery has gamed for Herman Bros, and Co., London, the silver medal at the .ntero denial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous tedumonals from Government official and all the elite of the medical faculty in Europe. , , , ■ , HERMAN BROS. & 00. beg to announce that they have appointed CHARLES NEATE, Chemist and Druggist, East street, their sole Agent for Ashburton and vicinity, and from him the preparation car be obtained in parcels.
