Matson, Cos & Co- DIPPING SEASON, 1884 j The Special Improved Glycerine Dip, Soluble in cold water mms NON-POISONOUS DIP is a certain and cure of scab, and is unrivalled for tho complete destruction of Ticks, Lice, and Parasites of every description imeating the skin of sheep, cattle, and other animals. It has gained the highest reputation, for itpos. sesses the double advantage of simultane ously repelling contagion and loansing the skin from filth. IT DOES NOT DISCOLOR THE WOOL Or act injuriously upon the natural yolu of same, but feeds the fleece, maintains the natural lustre, and wonderfully pro motes its growth. The great risk in curred by introducing newly purchased stock amongst healthy animals already on the runs may be entirely avoided by using this Dip. The Dip is not a cheap chemi cal fluid, but a blend of ingredients (glycerine being one) which all tend to benefit the animal and the wool; and these ingredients are mixed by new power, ful steam machinery, so that a thorough consistency is always obtained. One dip ping with this Dip (in mid-fleece) will sav the great inconvenience of dipping twice as is tho case with other dips. Sold in drums of 201 b (2 gallons) 50lb (5 gallons), 1001 b (10 gallons) ; 5s per gallon in single drums. A considerable reduction made in large quantities, for large flocks. Among the numerous testimonials we have received last season for this Glycer ine Dip, we select the following : From Reginald Foster, Esq., Sheep In spector North Canterbury— “ Amberloy, North Canterbury, “17th April 1883. Wra. Buss, Fsq., (Messrs Matson, Buts and Co.), Rangiora. “Dear Sir, —I have to-day made a care ful examination of Mr T. Croft’s sheep, which were dipped in my presence at Ashley, by Mr Hayward, on the 26th March, in Messrs Tomlinson and Hayward’s Glycer ine Dip. The result of my inspection to day is, I am pleased to be able to state, in every respect highly satisfactory. The sheep were badly infected with lice and ticks, and in consequence, not thriving. After they were dipped they were, at my request put back in the same paddock from whence they came. To-day the sheep have the appearance of having thriven well since dipping. The Wool is SOFT AND SILKY TO THE TOUCH, AND IS UNUSUALLY BRIGHT ANDGLOSSY, considering the short space of time since they were dipped. Although the sheep smell strongly of tho dip, there is very slight stain on the .wool, as may be seen by the samples I enclose. I found no live lice or ticks, and what is, in my opinion, highly important, THE TICK WERE ALL BEAD. As the lice ova are no; easily viainle to the naked eye, I am not able to say what condition they are in, but as they are supposed to hatch within fourteen days, and as there are no young lice to be seen, it may, I think, be taken for granted that they are also dead. I attribute this killing of the eggs to the length of time the shoap were kept in the dip—nearly a minute — which, in my opinion, is not any too long. “ I am, dear Sir, “ Yours faithfully, (Signed ‘Reginald Foster.” Extracts from Letters from John Grigg. Esq., Longbeach, Canterbury. April 30, 1883—The general appear ance of the flocu is all that could be wished for. ” “May 10, 18*3 —I am more and more pleased with the appearance of my sheep that were dipped in your Dip, and 1 shall certainly use it neit season. I will care fully note the appearance of the wool as compared with that in which other dips were used.” From John McCaw, Esq., Three Springs Station. - “ Timaru, March 19, 1883. “I have been examining the effect of the Glycerine Dip on the sheep, and I find very sati factory results, the ticks as well as the eggs being destroyed. Whilst hand ling the sheep I find ou: dipping has been very effective.” At the late exhaustive trial of sheep dips in Hawke’s Bay the judges reported as follows :—“At the second examination on the 18th October, we found the sheep dipped with Tomlinson and Hay ward’s (Glycerine) free from parasites and wool in good order,” etc , etc. Vide Hawke’s Bay Herald, Jan. 5, 1884. Wool dipped with the Glycerine Dip last year at the N.Z. and A. Land Company’s Stud Flock Station realised the highest price in the London market. Vide Account Sales, 1883. The prize pen of Lincoln Sheep at tho late Lincoln April Fair and Newark flair were dipped with the Glycerine Dip, viz., R. A. and J. A. Thorpe’s, Nocton. Wool dipped with the Glycerine Dip obtained the Silver Medal at tho late Paris Exhibition.

Dear Friends —Wo have some hesita tion in’ addressing you in the manner fM -1 lowing, but hope that it will not be t looked at in any invidious light, when we . state that it is only our regard for your r health that causes us to do it. We have i been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for , mmy, many years, and have in the long f course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on scientific I formula and absolute care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far*in advance of any other Pharmaceuti ” cal Preparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been in this, is only to f note the extraordinary amount of the • gales of our Haydock’s New Liver Pill. 1 We have the pleasure to state that we , have sold 28,' 89 Vials of Dr Haydock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Haydock’s New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated J. medicine. The Victories of Science — Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing i- —revolutionised the whole system of the ’ globe, and made mankind wiser and fcet - ter. So, although there are countless - Pills use I for diseases and claiming much S as to their merit, the remark ible dis covery of Dr Haydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys e tern. The Doctors, whose vast doses of s four or five pills enfeeble the stomach e and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary s Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place :■ the stomach in perfect order creates an t appetite, and renders the spirit light and h buoyant. If the Liver is affected its funo iS tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION.

TESTIMONIALS : From Rev. Charles Penny— Reefion (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884. I am happy to say your Pulmonic Elixir afforded my wife and children almost im mediate relief in coughs and colds, and many to whom I have had the pleasure of recommending your specific have spoken of it as invaluable. In one case when every remedy tried was powerless to give relief (thff cough waa bo distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another cise (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else. Other cases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mean order. From C. F. Salter, Esq., Barrister and Solicitor— Inglia’ Buildings, Christchurch. March 20, 1884.
