Matson, Cox & Co. DIPPING SEASON, 1884 j The Special Improved < i 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 itpoa aesses the double advantage of simultane, oualy 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 great risk in curred by introducing newly purchased stock amongst healthy animals already on ] the runs may be entirely avoided by using 1 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; 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) ; 5a 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., Rheep In spector North Canterbury— “ Amberley, North Canterbury, “ 17th April 1883. Wm. Buss, Esq., (Messrs Matson, Buss and Co.), Bangiora. “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 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 1 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, 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. “ 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, 1883—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 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 satisfactory results, the 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 , etc. Vide Hawke’s Say 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 Loudon 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 Medal at the late Paris Exhibition.
