This preparation is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to anythin" yet discovered for eradicating tick, scab or lice on sheep, goats or cattle. Itis 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 the simplest plan in the world for the cure and prevention of diseases incident to farm stock. By its use the farmer 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 peats, 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 be used m a dry state for the destruction of rata 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 touffi it in any form, and are therefore perfectly safe. , , , _ „ , _ . The above marvellous discovery has gained for Herman Bros, and Go., London, the silver medal at the .nterc denial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous testimonials from Government officia and all the elite of the medical faculty in Europe. . ... HERMAN BROS. & CO. beg to announce that they have appointed CHARLES NBATE, Chemist and Druggist, East street, their solo Agent for Ashburton and vicinity, and from him the preparation car be obtained in parcels.
