S.B. HOLLINGS ON THE PRODUCTION OF PERFECT WOOL. Tho production of a perfect fleece of wool, according to tho breed of sheep in which he is interested is, or should be, the aim of every owner of sheep. For many years Mr. S. B. Rollings, of Bradford, has been recognised by tho most up-to-date wool men in all countries as perhaps the most practical authority on wool living to-day. His pronouncements on the numerous questions relative to the growth of the fibre is thereforeof the greatest importance to pastoralists wherever situated.
It is frequently argued by flockowners who ought to know hotter that because there arc no ticks in ■their flock there is no necessity for clipping at all. Listen to what Mr. Rollings says—i.e.: “In tlieso days of light and learning it seems to me almost incredible that any man should want convincing of tlio fact that there is money profit in dipping.” The experience of tho world’s most noted sheep men to-day fully bears out all Mr. Hollings says in this connection. Take the experience of the most successful exhibitors at the great annual show of tho New South Wales Slioepbreeders’ Association, 1907—the most famous sheep show in the would, because of tho fact that Australasian breeders are recognised as being the most up-to-date,—and what do we find?—i.e., 47 per cent of the total prize money awarded was won by Quibell-dippetl sheep, 17 per cent was won by sheep oil which no dip at all had been used, leaving only 36 per cent, to be divided lip among the users of'every other dip on the market combined. What do tho above facts prove? Why, in the opinion of the men best able to judge as to tlio merits of a sheep dip, the superiority of Quibell’s is undoubted.
IT DAZZLES THE WOULD. No discovery in medicine has ever created ono quarter of the interest that has been caused by Dr. Sheldon's New Discovery for Coughs, Colds, and Consumption. It has brought relief in the most helpless cases, when all else has failed. Obtainable at A. W. J. Mann’s Chemist, -Agent,
