DIPPING SEASON, 1884 j The Special Improved , Glycerine Dip, Soluble in cold water This- non-poisonous dip is a 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 it possesses the double advantage of simultane ously repelling contagion and leansing ' the akin from filth. ■ IT DOES NOT DISCOLOR THE WOOL ' ' y ,Or act injuriously upon the natural yolk of same, bat feeds the fleece, maintains .’the natural lustre, and wonderfully pro motes its growth. The great risk in eurced by introducing newly purchased 1 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; aid these ingredients ate mixed by new power, ful steam machinery, so that a thorough consistency is always obtained. One dipping with this Dip (in mid-fleece) will sav the great inconvenience of dipping twice as is the case with other dips. Sold in drams bf 201 b (2 gallons) 501 b (5 gallons), 1001 b (10 gallons); 5s per gallon in single drums. A considerable redaction made in large quantities, for large flocks. Among the numerous testimonials we L have, received last season for this Glycerine Dip, we select the following : From Reginald Foster, Esq., Sheep Inspector North Canterbury—"Amberley, North Canterbury, “ 17th April 1883. Wm. Buss, Esq., (Messrs Matson, Buts and Co.), Rangiora. ‘ **Dear Sir, —I have tb-day made a careful examination of Mr T. Croft’s sheep, which were tfipped in my presence at Ashley, by Jjft Hayward, on the 26th March, in Meftrs TomUasotV and Hayward’s Glycerine Dip. The result of my inspection today is,-1 am pleased to be able to state, dnevety respect highly satisfactory. The sheep were badly infected with lice and ticks, and in consequence, not thriving. | .4(l^they, werp dipped they were, at my request-put back in the same paddock from whence they came. To-day the sheep hafe the appearance of having -thriven well since dipping. The Wool is SOM ABD SILKY TO THE TOUCH, ASX> IS un usually BKicmx and g lossy, considering the short space of time since they were dipped. Although the shcop smell , -Strongly of -the,dip, there ia very slight on the vroot, Ss may bo seen bj the samples I enclose. 1 found no live lice or ticks; and what is, in my opinion, highly important, tus tick k*us week all dead. As the lice ova are net easily visible to the nakedeye, I am not able to say what condition they are - in, but as they are supposed to Mtch within fourteen days, and as there are no young lice to bo seen, .it may;-1 think, be taken for granted that they ard dead. 1 attribute this killing of the eggs to the length of time the sheep were kept in the dip—nearly a minute — which, ill my opinion, is not any too long. “I am, dear Sir, ‘f Your a faithfully, ~ . (Signed ‘Reoiyalj) Fosteb.” Extracts from Letters from John Grigg, Efiqyliongbeach, Canterbury. : i-'April SO, 1883—The: general appearance of the flock is ali that could be wished for.” “May 10,18?3 —I am more and more pleased with the appearance of my sheep - that were dipped in your Dip, and 1 shall certainly use it next season. I will carefully note the appearance of the wool as compared with that in which other dips were need;” From John McCaw, Esq., Three Springs ; Station. “ Timatu, March 19,1883. *" T nave been examining tbe effect of the Glycerine Dip on the sheep, and 1 find very sati-factory results, the ticks as well as the.eggs being destroyed.
