Matson, Cox & Co. DIPPING SEASON, 1884 J The Special Improved Glycerine Dip, Soluble in cold water This non-poisonous dip is a certain preventative and cure of scab, and is unrivalled for the complete destruction of Ticks, Lice, and Parasites of every description infesting the skin of sheep, cattle, and other animals. It has gained the highest reputation, for it pos sesses the double advantage of simultane’ ously repelling contagion and leansing the skin from filth. - IT DOES NOT DISCOLOR THE WOOL Or act injuriously upon the natural yolk of same, but feeds the fleece, maintains the natural lustre, and wonderfully pro motes its growth. The groat risk in curred by introducing newly purchased stock amongst healthy animals already on the runs may be entirely avoided by using ibis 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; aid 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 the case with other dips. Sold in drums of 201 b (2 gallons) 501 b (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 ino Dip, we select the following , From Reginald Foster, Esq., Sheep In spector North Canterbury— “Amberley, North Canterbury, “ 17th April 1883. Wm. Buss, Esq., (Messrs Matson, Buss and Co.), Bangiora. “Dear Sir,—l have to-day made a care ful examination of Mr T. Croft’s sheep, which were dipped in my prosenceat 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, r 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 SXLET TO THE TOUCH, AND IS unusually BRIGHT and glossy, considering the short space of time since they were dipped. Although the sheep smell strongly of the 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, tub tick bogs were all dead. As the lice ova are tu.j easily visible (O the naked eye, lam not able to say what condition they are in, but as they are supposed to hatch s within fourteen days, and as there are no young lice to bo 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 sheep were kept in the dip—nearly a minute — which, in my opinion, is not any too long. “ 1 am, dear Sir, “ Yours faithfully, (Signed 'Reginald Poster.” Extracts from .Letters from John Grigg, Esq., Longbeach, Canterbury. ' April 30, 1883—The general appear ance of the flock is all that could be wished for.” “ May 10, 1833—1 am more and more pleased with the appearance of my sheep that were dipped in your Dip, and I shall certainly use it next season. 1 will care fully note the appearance of the wool as compared with that in which other dips •were used.” Fc<>m John McCaw, Esq., Three Springs Station. “ Timaru, March 19, 1883. " I have been examining the effect of the Glycerine Dip on the sheep, and 1 find very satisfactory results, the ticks as well as the eggs being destroyed. Whilst hand ling the sheep 1 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, Jau, 5, 1884 Wool dipped with the Glycerine Dip last year at the N.Z. and' A.

The prize pen of Lincoln Sheep at the lata Lincoln April Fair and Newark Fair were dipped with the Glycerine Dip, viz., R. A. and J. A. Thorpe’s, Nocton.

It is sufficient to say that One Shilling Packet of the Powder dissolved in two buckets of water will wash Eighteen Sbeep. This admits the most economial, as well as the simplest plan in the world for the cure and prevention of diseases incident to farm stock. By its use the farmer can secure the health of his stock at the rate of |d per head per annum. In all large Sheep Districts in Australia, South America, and Africa, no other pre paration is used. The vermin destroyer is also invaluable for the purpose of the Horticulturist; and it is most extensively used by the Flower and Kitchen Gardener in Europe, America, and the British possessions in all parts of the Globe. One packet dissolved in two buckets of water will serve for over half an acre of ground and will effectually prevent blight and exclude all other garden pests. As a Vermin Killer it is an unrivalled specific. Its use will speedily exterminate all household pests, such as bugs, cockroaches, fleas on animals, moths in furs, and insects on birds of all kinds, from the canary to the poultry. For this purpose sitnpl and plain directions are given on every packet. The powder can also bo used in a dry state for the destruction of rats and mice. A little sprinkled on a slice of bread and butter, or a piece of meat or cheese is sought after greedily by those vermin, while the household pets such as cats and dogs will not touch it in any form, and are therefore perfectly safe. . The above marvellous discovery has gained for Herman Bros, and Co., London, the silver medal at the .ntercolonial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous testimonials from Government officia and all the elite of the medical faculty in Europe, HERMAN BROS. & CO. beg to announce that they have appointed CHARLES NEATE, Chemist and Druggist, East street, their sole Agent for Ashburton and vicinity, and from him the preparation can be obtained in parcels, Price—One Shilling; or six packets for Five Shillings.

The Cutting Ap paratus is acknowledge to be immeasurably superior to that on any other Harvester. The finger bar is of angle steel and the fingers of wrought iron. The Platform Belt runs within half an inch of the knife, enabling the Champion to cut and convey the shortest crop in good manner. The Butter Belt employed on some machines is a rickety, rapidly running arrangement, and is superseded in the Champion by an iron Butts Packer, durable and effective. The-Main Wheel is very high, has a broad tire, and the bearing in the centre is 16in long, is vastly superior to the main wheel of any other binder, and will run a dozen years, and not cant over or get loose and shaky. The Elevating Belts on other harvesters are nearly perpendicular, on the Champion, however, the angle is very slight, requiring much less power to elevate the grain, and it is not necessary to run the belts so close together, the heads-or the grain arß not broken off or shelled out. These features are only found in the Cham pion, and every farmer will realise their importance. The Binding Mechanism is a combination of the best know systems, and is thoroughly perfected. The makers of the Champion control the Appleby pa-ents, and ail harvesters using this system pay them a royalty. The Champion contains other improvements too numerous to par ticularise, and must be seen to be appreciated. . The Expensive Materials used in the Construction of this Harvester make it the Most Costly of any made, but it is decided to MAKE THE PRICE THE SAME AS IHOSE ALREADY IN THE MARKET: AND SPECIAL TERMS Will be made to Farmers ordering for Next Season.

Dear Friends —We have so me hesita tion in addressing you in the manner fol lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it is only our regard for your health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years, and have in the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being baaed on scientific formula and absolnte 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 note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydock’s New Liver Pill. 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 medicine. The Victories of Science— Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much > as to their merit, the remark .ble dis i co'very of Dr Haydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys > tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of | four or five pills enfeeble the stomach * and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite ' with one or two of his extraordinary 1 Vegetable Pills. One_or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place 1 the stomach - in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its fuuc ' tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Bunnah, B I.

TESTIMONIALS : From Hkv. CuauLcS Penny— Reeftou (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884. I am happy to say your Pulmonic Elixir afforded my wife and children a’most 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 (the cough was so distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another case (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 I Solicitor— -1 Inglis’ Buildings, Christchurch. March 20,1884.
