Matson, Cox & Co. : DIPP?NG SEASON, The Special Improved Glycerine Dip, ' ' Soluble in cold water fnHIS NON-POISONOUS DIP is a J certain preventative and cure of scab, and u unrivalled for the complete destruction of Ticks, Lice, and Parasites •of description infesting the skin of ;shee'p,.cattle, and other animals. It has gained the highest reputation, for itpoa- ' 'aesses the double advantage of aimultane ously repelling contagion and leansing the,akin from filth. . ,L . v ' ‘ * I 1! DOES NOT DISCOLOR THE-WOOL act injuriou .3y upon the natural yolk of same, but feeds the floooe, maintains - the natural lustre,- and wonderfully pro motes its' growth. 'the great risk in —curred by introducing newly purchased " slock 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 qpimal and the wool; and these ingredients are mixed by new power. /uLateam machinery, so that a thorough oonsistenoy is always obtained. One dip* ' pfhg with this Dip (in mid-fleece) will sav tbs great inconvenience of dipping twice as is the case with other dips.

Reginald Foster, Esq , Sheep. Inspector North Canterbury—- “ Amberley, North Canterbury, “17th April 1883. f Wm. Buss, Esq., (Messrs Matson, Burs and Co,)j Rangiora, “Dear'Sir,— I have to-day made a careful, .examination of Mr T. Croft’s sheep, - which were dipped in my presence at Ashley, by Mr Hay ward, on the 26th March, in Messrs Tomlinson and Hayward’s Glycerine Dip. The result of my inspection today is, I am pleased to be able to state, *- ‘in every respect highly satisfactory. The sheep were badly infected with lice and ticks, 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.bavethe appearance of having thriven well since dipping. The Wool is 80VT AMD SILKY TO THE TOUCH, AKD IS UR USUALLY bright and glossy, considering the short space] of time since they were 'dipped;' Although the sheep smell strongly of the dip, there is very slight •tain on the wool, as may be seen by the samples I enclose. I found no live lice ;.or ticksrsud what is,,in my- opinion, highly Eimpdrtant, tub tick eggs weee all dead. As the lice ova are noi easily visible to thefcakbd eye, I am not able to say what condition they are in, but as they are supposed to' hatch within fourteen days, &nd«s there are no young |ice to be seen, it may, I think, be taken for granted that they am also dead. I attribute this killing - of the eggs to the length of time the sheep we?6;kept in the dip—nearly a minute—which, in my opinion, is Dot any too long. ‘M am, dear Sir, “ Yours faithfully, .
