ACKSON’S SHEEPLIFT (Protected b Ryal Letters Patent,) Is a most useful and simple contrivance for lifting sheep from the hot soak instead of their being dragged up an incline; it can bo fitted to almost any wash. The following statements have been kindly given for publication : I have used one of Jackson’s Patent Lifts et my wash with great advantage, as it saves labor, prevents injury to the sheep economises soap, and helps to insure more perfect ingStoneleigh, near Shipton. I have seen Jacksons’s Patent Sheep Lift at work, and I consider it a valuable inven tion ; the sheep are got under the jets while wool is hot; the washing is greatly facilitated; the sheep are saved from injury by rough usuage, and the color and condition of the wool is improved. Full particulars, price, etc., can be obtained from the patentee, John Owen or Beaufort. PUBLIC TRUST OFFICE OP NEW ZEALAND.
