Herman’s WORLD-RENOWNED SHEEP WASH AND CELEBRATED VERMIN DESTROYER

This preparation Is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to ««y 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 economlal, 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 Jd per head per 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 purpc of the Horticulturist; and it Is most extensively used by the Flower and Kitchen Gardener T .n Europe, America, and the British possessions in all parts of the Globe. Ono packet dissolved in two backets 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 fora, and insects on birds of all kinds, from the canary to the poultry. For this purpose and plain directions are given on every packet. The powder can also be used to ' dry state for the destruction of rata and mice. A little sprinkled on a slice of bread and batter, or'a piece of meat or cheese la sought after greedily by those vermin, while the household pets such as cats and dogs will not touch it In any form, and a*; therefore perfectly safe. The above marvellous discovery has gained for Herman Bros, and Go,, London,' the silver medal at the intercolonial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, Iwmides numerous testimonials from Government officla and all the dite of the medical faculty in Europe.
