CELEBRATED VERMIN Thia 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 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 moat 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 peats. 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 thia purpose simpl and plain directions are given on every packet. The powder can also be 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 touch 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 officia and all the elite of the medical faculty in Europe. HERMAN BROS. & CO. beg to announce that they have appointed CHARLES NEATE, Chemist and Druggist, East street, their, sole Agent for Ashburton and vicinity, and from him the preparation car be obtained in parcels Price—One Shilling; or six packets for Five Shillings.

Mari |II E CHAMPION CORD BINDER WARDER, BUSHNBLL AND GLESSNER, Manufacturers, Springfield, Ohio, and Chicago, Illinois. 'ho Champion Binder is a machine made for Hard Service, and upon this present fact the imputation of all Champion Machines is founded. The Cutting Apatus is acknowledge to be immeasurably superior to that on any other Harvester, i finger bar is of angle steel and the fingers of wrought iron. The Platform Belt s within half an inch of the knife, enabling the Champion to cut and convey the rtest crop H good manner. The Butter Belt employed on some machines is a ;etv 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 m the centre is 16in long, is vastly superior to the main wheel ot other binder, and will run a dozen years, and not cant over or get loose and ky Tho Elavating Belts on other harvesters are nearly perpendicular, on the impion, however, the angle is very slight, requiring much less power to elevate grain, and It is not necessary to run the belts so close together, the heads of the n ate not broken off or shelled out. These features are only found m the Chami and every farmer will realise their importance. The Binding Mechanism is a ibination of the best know systems, and is thoroughly perfected. The makers of Champion control the Appleby pa'cats, and all harvesters using this system pay n a royalty. The Champion contains other improvements too numerous to parlarise, and must he seen to bo appreciated. , , he Expensive Materials' used in the Construction of this Harvester make it the KE°TH & AND SPECIAL TERMS Will be made to Farmers ordering for Next Season, or full particulars, apply to the SOLE AGENT, EDWARD REECE, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL IRONMONGER, Colombo sisekx, Chiosichdkch. 5 1003
