The chief idea, is to catch the Dominion’s wool season itiif.l the summer trade. At present the Dominion has 30 meat preserving works of a very fail- average capacity. At this time next year that number will be swelled to 41—a lorry per cent increase in (he number of works practically within twelve months, and about twice as many works as exist in I lie whole of the Cqinmonxvealth of Australia.

THE GERMS OF OEKE 13110SriNAii MENIiNOITIH, Are slated by the Director of the Bacteriological Laboratory of the University of Melbourne to be quickly destroyed by eucalyptus. BANDEK’B EUCALYPTI EXTRACT was proved at the Supreme Court of Victoria to possess far greater antiseptic power than the common eucalyptus. Therefore, if you are not particular about your health you use any eucalyptus; if yon arc —you use only SANDER’S EXTRACT. It protects not only from meningitis, but from all infectious diseases scarlet fever, measles, typhoid, influenza, diphtheria, etc. SANDER’S EX TRACT is the strongest and safest antiseptic, and its curative qualities have been demonstrated to he genuine and lasting—it not only disinfects, but stimulates, aud'gives new vigour to diseased parts. Ulcers, poisoned wounds, chilblains, inflamed skin, are quickly cured by SANDER’S EXTRACT
