WORLD-RENOWNED SHEEP WASH AND CELEBRATED VERMIN DESTROYER, * This preparation is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to any thing-yet discovered for eradictating tick, scab or lice on sheep, goats or cattle. It is sufficient to say that One Shilling Packet of the Powder dissolved in two buckets of water will wash Eighteen Sheep. 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 firmer 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 fa 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 othor 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 simpl and plain directions are given on every packet. The,powder can also be 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 Go., London, the silver medal at the mteroolonial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous testimonials from Government officia and all the elite uf 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 car be obtained in parcels Price—One Shilling; or six packets for Five Shillings.

I he Champion Binder is a machine made for Hard Service, and upon this pre ment fact the raputation of all Champion Machines is founded. The Cutting Ap atua is acknowledga-to be immeasurably superior to that on any other Harvester. 3 finger bar is of angle steel and the finger# of wrought iron. The Platform Belt s within half an inch of the knife, enabling the Champion to out and convey the rtest crop in good manner. The Butter Belt employed on some machines is a cety, rapidly running arrangement, and is superseded in the Champion by an iron bts Packer, durable and effective. The Main Wheel is very high, has a broad tire, I the bearing in the. centre is 16In long, is vastly superior to the mam wheel of - other binder, and will run a dozen years, and not cant over or get loose and ky. The Elavating Belts on other harvesters are nearly perpencioular, .on the impion, however, the angle is very slight, requiring much less power to elevate grain, and it is not necessary to run the belts so close together, th§ beads of the in are not broken off or shelled out. These features are only found in the Oham n, and every farmer will realise their importance. The Binding Mechanism is a ibination of the best know systems, and is thoroughly perfected. The makers of Champion control the Appleby patents, and all Harvesters using this system pay m a royalty. The Champion contains other improvements too numerous to par ilariae, and must be seen to be appreciated. , 'he Expensive Materials used in the Construction of this Harvester make it the at Costly of any made, but it is decided to ~. ,KE THE PRICE THE SAME AS THOSE ALREADY IN THE MARKET: AND .SPECIAL TERMS Will bo made to Farmers ordering for Next Season.
