THE MA KINO Arsenical Caustic Potash Soap SHEEP DIP. THIS DIP is now used by very many Sheep-owners, who have found it to be all that is required, totally destroying all Insects, and lubricating the wool so as to cause all eggs to drop from it. The action of the soap leaves the wool in a eoft, silky condition. If the dipping is carried on until the dip water is very dirty, the first rain falling washeß tbe wool soft, clean, and without the least stain. The Dip is put up in four-gallon tins. Mixes easily with cold water. Each tin makes 400 gallons of Dip, and will dip (mixed sizes) 500 sheep, costing at the rate of 24s per 1000 sheep. If used to the given strength, the maker guarantees the action to be certain and satisfactory, ARSENICAL POTASH SOAP DIP VERSUS MINERAL DIP. Tbe Managing Director of a large chemical works, speaking on Dips, saya : " Arsenic in no manner injures wool." Arsenic in a perfect solvent state, with a careful and for years tested per centage of water, -wiil kill Lice and Ticks, and do no other harm, In a lecture at Lincoln, England, the lecturer said : " The yolk in wool was wrouyly called, as it wan nearly pure potash, and a wet cloth rubbed on tbe f'hecp on a Uot day produced a soap laihcr. 1 ' PoUt-h tioap is mtd in tlje rsanufac» ture of woollen^ from the commencement to the 6nish, and leave 3 that kindly feel to blankets, etc;, without shrinkage. Potash Soap assists the yolk in preventing tbe cold winter rains approach* ing the skin. It lubricates the wool so as to cause, when dipping, all those littlo red eggs to slip from it, so that it is not neces>ary to put c.ff dipping until they have matured, which is well on in winter, when the yards are in a state of mud and the weather co!d Surely it must bn admitted that Cau9» tic Potash Soap Water to form the body of a Dip, with Arsenic as the killing ag*nt, must be suponor for wool to come in contact with thtn the coal retort, unlasting, evaporating, Mineral Dips, from gas works. In conclusion, thinking men may say these ftreign Dips are most expensive, that our sheep are free from scab; so that a plain, simple, home-madb, cheap Dir. which will exterminate Lice and licks is all that is required, saving much money to sheep owners JOHN HOLDEN, MA El NO, DIFYuUK SHMiP W I TH MUETON'S CHAMPION Sheep Dip.
