Matson, Cox & Co. DIPPING SEASON, 1884] 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 itpos* seises the double advantage of simultane ously repelling contagion and leansing the akin 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 onrred by introducing newly purchased stock amongst healthy animals already on the tuns 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 powerful 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 of 201 b (2 gallons) 501 b (6 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 : Ejrom Reginald Foster, Esq., Sheep Inspector Nprib Canterbury—- “ Amberley, North Canterbury, O ' ;• “ 17th April 1883. Wm. Buss, Esq., (Messrs Matson, 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 at Ashley, by Mr Hayward, 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 aheep 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. sheephave the appearance of having thriven well since dipping. The Wool is SOFT AND SILKY TO THE TOUCH, AND IS unusually briqhx and glossy, considering the short space of time since they were dipped. Although the sheep smell strongly of the dip, there is very slight stain on the wool, as may be seen by the samples I enclose. 1 found no live lice or ticks, and what is, in my opinion, highly important, tub tick xam were all dead. As the lice ova are not easily visible to the naked eye, lam not able to say what condition they are in, bat as they are supposed to hatch within fourteen days, and as there are no young lice to be seen, it may, I think, be taken for granted that they are also dead. I attribute this killing of the eggs to the length of time the aheep Were kept in the dip—nearly a minute—which, in my opinion, is not any too long. “ I am, dear Sir, “ Yours faithfully, (Signed 'Reginald Foster.” Extracts from Letters from John Grigg, Esq-, Longbeach, Canterbury. ' April 30,1883 —The general appearance 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 I shall certainly use it next season. 1 will carefully note the appearance of the wool as compared with that in which other dips were used.” From John McOaw, Esq., Three Springs , Station. “ Timaru, March 19,1883. “ I have been examining tbe effect of the Glycerine Dip on tbe sheep, and I find very satisfactory results, the ticks as well as the eggs being destroyed. Whilst handling the shhep I find ou.* dipping has been very effective.” At the late exhaustive trial of sheep dips in Hawke's Bay the judges reported as follows :—“ At the second examination qn the 18th October, we found the i sheep, dipped with Tomlinson and Hayward’s (Glycerine) free from parasites and wool in good order," etc , etc.—Fide Hawke’s Bay Herald , Jan. 6,1884.
