This preparation is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to any thing yet discovered for eradictating tick, scab or Hoe on sheep, goats or cattle. It is sufficient to say that One Shilling Packet of the Powder dissolved in tw 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 nse 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 pit. paration is used. The vermin destroyer is also Invaluable for the purf of th Horticulturist; and it is most extensively nsed 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 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 this pnrpose slmpl and plain directions are given on every packet. The powder also he nsed in 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 vermLx, while the household pets such as cats and dogs will not touch it in any form and «ev 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. bag 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 can be obtained in parcels.
