This preparation la known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to any thing 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 diabase" Incident to farm stock. By its use the farmer can secure the health of his stock at the rate of |d per head pec annum. In al large Sheep Districts in Australia, South America, and Africa, no other pro* paration is used. The vermin destroyer is also invaluable for the puree of the Horticulturist; and it is moat extensively used by the Flower and Kitchen Gardener n 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 Terrain Sailer it is an unrivalled specific. Its use will speedily exterminate all household peats, such as bugs, cockroaches, fleas on animals, moths in fun, and insects on birds of ail 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 in dry state for the destruction of rats and mice. A little sprinkled on a shoe 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 tt; therefore perfectly safe. The above marvellous discovery has gained for Herman Bros, and 00., London the silver medal at the mtercolonial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, numerous testimonials from Government offioia and all the elite of the faculty in Europe. HERMAN BROS. & 00. beg to announce that they have appointed CHARLES NEATE, Ohemlst and Druggist, East street, their sole Agent for Ashburton and vicinity, and from him the preparation car be obtained in por'f'T Price—One Shilling; or six packets for Five Shillings.
