Herman’s WORLD-RENOWNED SHEEP WASH AND CELEBRATED VERMIN DESTROYER. This preparation is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to anything yet discovered for eradicating tick, scab or lice on sheep, goats or cattle. It is 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 well as thocimplest plan in the world for the cure and prevention of diseases incident to farm stock. By its use the firmer can secure the health of his stock at the rate of |d per head per annum. In all large Sheep Districts in Australia, South America, and Africa, no other preparation is used. The 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 buckets of water will serve 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 kinds, from the canary to the poultry. For this purpose simpl and plain directions are given on every packet. The powder can also bo 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 pets such as cats and dogs will not toujh it in any form, and are therefore perfectly safe. The above marvellous discovery has gained for Herman Bros, and Co., London, the silver medal at the .ntercolonial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous testimonials from Government offioia and all the elite uf the medical faculty in Europe.

The Platform Belt 3 within half an inch of the knife, enabling the Champion to cut and convey the :test crop in good manner. The Butter Belt employed on some machines is a ety, rapidly running arrangement, and is superseded in the Champion by an iron ts Packer, durable and effective. The Main Wheel is very high, has a broad tire, the bearing in the centre is 16in long, is vastly superior to the mam wheel of other binder, and will run a dozen years, and not cant over or get loose and iy. The Elavating Belts on other harvesters are nearly perpencicular, on the mpion, however, the angle is very slight, requiring much leas w " grain, and it is not necessary to run the belts so close together, the n are not broken off or shelled out. These features are only found m Ohami, and every farmer will realise their importance. The Binding Mechanism is a bination of the best know systems, and is thoroughly perfected. 0 - Champion control the Appleby patents, and all harvesters using this system pay n a royalty.
