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 over3 T description infesting the skin of sheep, cattle, and other animals. It has rained the highest reputation, for itpos. sesses the double advantage of simultane ously repelling contagion and leans'ing 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 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 o? ingredients (glycerine being one) which ail tend to benefit the animal and the wool ; aad 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 wo have received last season for this Glycer ine 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.), ilangfora. “Dear Sir, —I have to-day made acare ful examination of Mr T. Croft’s sheep, which were dipped in my presence at Ashley, by Mr Hayward, on the 2(ith March, in Messrs Tomlinson and Hayward’s Glycerr ine Dip. Tho 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 and qlossy, considering the short space of time since they were dipped. Although the sheep smell strongly of the dip, there is very sligh t 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 WERE ALL DEAD. As the lice ova are no« easily visible 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, bo 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. “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 flock is all that could be wished for. ” “May 10, 18i : 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 next season. I will care fully note the appearance of tho wool as compared with that in which other dips were used.” From John McOaw, 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, tho ticks as well as the eggs being destroyed. Whilst hand ling the sheep I find our 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 , ere. Vide Hawke's Bay Herald, Jan. 6, 1884. Wool dipped with tho Glycerine Dip last year at tho N.Z. and A. Land Company’s Stud Flock Station realised tho highest price in the London market. Vide Account Sales, 1883. The prize pen of Lincoln Sheep at the late Lincoln April Fair and Newark Fair were dipped with the Glycerine Dip, viz., R. A. and J. A. Thorpe’s, Nocton. Wool dipped with the Glycerine Dip obtained the Silver Meda at the late Paris Exhibition.

Dear Friends —We have so ue 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 jmur health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for m>ny, many years, and have in the long course of this lime manufactured certain Medicines that being baaed on scientific 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 • I'te the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydock’s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold £8, (, 89 Vials of Dr Haydock’s Now 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 tho whale system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter. ;So, although there are countless Pills use i for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remark ble dis covery of Dr Haydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pibs 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 Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place tiie stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the i-pirit light and buoyant. It the Liver is affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous •System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Bnrmah, 8.1.

In another (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else. Other eases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mean order. From C. P.
