■Matson, cox « 00. DIPPING SEASON, 1884. The Special Improved Glycerine Dip, Soluble in cold water mflIS NON-POISONOUS DIP is a -1- certain preventative and cure of scab, and is unrivalled for the complete destruction of Ticks, Lice, and Parasites of every description infesting the skin of sheep, cattle, and'other animals, It has gained the highest reputation, for itpos. Besses the double advantage of simultane ously repelling contagion and leansing the skin from filth. IT DOES NOT DISCOLOR THE WOOL Or act injuriously upon the natural yolk of same, but feeds the fleece, maintains the natural lustre, and wonderfully pro motes its growth. The great risk in onxred by introducing newly purchased stock amongst healthy animals already on the runs may be entirely avoided by using this Dip. The Dip is not a cheap chemical ‘fluid, but *a blend of ingredients (glycerine being one) which all tend to benefit the animal and the. wool; aad these ingredients are mixed by new power. . fol steam machinery, so that' a thorough consistency is always obtained. One dipping with this Dip (in micL-fleece) will sav the great inconvenience of dipping twice a? is the case with other dips. Sold in drums of 201 b (2 gallons) 501 b (5 gallons), 1001 b (10 gallons) ; 5s per gallon in single drums. A considerable reduction made in large quantities, for large flocks. Among the numerous testimonials we have received last season for this Glycerine Dip, we select the following : : From Reginald Poster, Esq., Rheep Inspector North Canterbury—- “ Amberley, North Canterbury, “ 17th April 1883. Wm Buss, Esq., (Messrs Mataon, Buss | ■• ; and Co.), Rangiora. “Dear Sir,—l have to-day made a careful examination' of Mr T. Croft’s sheep, which were dipped in my presence a t Ashley, by 'Mr Hay ward, on the 2tith March, in Messrs Tomlinson and Hayward’s Glycerine Dip. The result of my inspection today is, .1 am pleased to be able to state, in every respect highly satisfactory. The sheep were badly infected with lice and in consequence, not thriving. ‘ After they were dipped they were, at my request put- back in the same paddock . from ; whence they came. To-day the sheep , have, the appearance of having thriven well since dipping. The Wool is SOST AND SILKY TO THE TOUCH, AND IS . r UNUSUALLY BRIGHTANDGLOSSY, considering ‘ (the, short space of time since they were Although the sheep smell -strongly- of- the dip, there is very slight Stain on the wool; as may be seen by the . samples ! enclose. I found no live lice •i-caticka, and whatsis, in my opinion, highly important, tub tick e*gs weee all dead. ~Ab the Lee ova ate nt-j easily visible to the naked eye, Xam not able to say what condition they are in, but as they are supposed to hatch within fourteen days, and: as the re-are no young lice to be seen, it may, I think, be taken for granted that they are also dead: I attribute this killing . the eggs to.the length of time the shosp were kept in the dip—nearly a minute — which, in my opinion, is not any too long. ‘‘l am, dear Sir, “ Years faithfully, (Signed, - ‘ Reginald Foster. ” Extracts from Letters from John Qrigg, Esq-, Longbeach, Canterbury. “ April 30,188 ST—The general appeararce of the flock is all that could be wished for.” ' “May 10,1883 —I am more and more pleased with the appearance of my sheep that were dipped in your Dip, and 1 shall certaiiily use it next season. ' 1 will care- . fully hote the appearance of the wool as compared With {that in which other dips were .used. ” From John McCaw, Esq., Three Springs . Station. , ’ “ Timarn, March 19,1883. “I have been examining the effect of the Glycerine Dip on the sheep, and I find very. sati. factory results, the ticks as well as this eggs being destroyed.
