WALKKR'S BOT FL.Y R-EMEDIKS CITARRANTED TO CURE ANY HORSE AFFECTED WITH BOTS IF GIVEN » IN TIME, and to Improve the Condition of the Horse, whether he has Bot«= or not, given in two drenches. LOCAL TESTIMONIALS.



Gray's road, Amberley, September 6,1892. Mr Walker, Sir,—Your Bot Fly Remedy reached me in due course. I i gave them to one that; was very bar*, and as I had lost a splendid young horse, I got very anxious, as the stomach presented one mass of bots in all stages, with the coating eaten away. I am glad to tell you that the one I drenched according to your instructions got quite better, and is now at his w»rk asrain. I would highly recommend farmers to use the same in time, as I am satisfied that they will save and greatly improve the condition of the horse. Send m« some of your Bot Fly Preventive for the summer, and oblige, —Yours veiy respectfully, Edward Watson. Rilllnchy, September^ 14, 1892. Mr Robert Walker, Christ church, Dear Sir —Your Bot Fly Remedies have proved a complete success with my horse. He had been very bad for some dm a ; the coat dry, a tight skin, got very low in condition, and got scarce able to walk. I quite expected he would die, as he had all tbe symptoms of one that my neighbour lost with the bots. I gave your remedies as you directed, with the following re sults :—The horse, after gettilng the late bottle, became very pained, lying down rolling and groaning with pain, in the paddock. He began to cough very hard, each cough bringing away a thick humor ous imtter from the nostrils, the like of which I never saw before coming from a horse. This continued all next d&y, which I am cerain were the botn burst ing from the fleets of the Remedy, and coming up through the nostrils by the effects of the*cough. After this ceased, the|horse began to mend, and in six days I had him at work again, heartv>nd well. You should make these Remedies public, so that farmers- might knew there ia a remedy for this destructive pest. Send me some Preventive for keeping off the fly n summer,--And oblige, Robert Molorraw. Araberley, July 26, 1892. To Mr Robert Walker, Christchurch. Sir,—Having lo&t three good horses, and on examination found the stomach of two completely eaten through, and the whole of the stomach thickly covered with bots



in all stnges-of <'transforma<inn, I Jecama much alarmed about the rest <^f my stock, i user! your Bot Fly Remethes on one that was very bad, and had. m rery symp tom of dying, and in three days she was completely cur<d, and is doing well, I I believe it is the prapef thing, and if given at the proper time we shall have no more deaths from the Bot Fi>. Davit* Bkown. Brookside, December 12, 1892. Mr Walker,—Sir,—l wish to add my testimony to the wonderful effects of your Bot-fly Remedies, 1 had a valuable horse which got very bad and gradually got worse, I quite believed he would have died. He kept losing flesh, got a dry coat, tight skin, careworn expression of the eye, a cough, running at the nos trils, and could scarce walk I got your remedies and gave them as directed, with the most beneficial results. The second day after getting the last drench he began to pass bots in handfuls, some of which I herewith hand you. Immediately after passing the bots he began to mend, and is now as fat as butter, hearty and well, thanks to Walker's Bot-fly Remedies. Any who doubt them send them to me, and I will convince them that your reme dies are a boon to the community and the suffering horse. Every horse should have them in the season^ as lam confi dent if usedthere will be no more deaths from the bot-fly. U«> this as you please. H. Lovell Greenwood Farm, Southbridge, August 2, 1892. Mr Walker, Sir,—l am glad Co" bear testimony to the wonderful effects of your Bot Fly Remedies, vne of my best horses became very bad } the skintight, the eye lifeless and a bad colour, and got low in condition. Anxious to finish ploughing a paddock I did not want to lay him up until he became unable to lift his feet, or do any more. We had to holp him into the stable. I gave him your Remedies, and the treatment you prescribed, and in a few days he was quite better, and is now at his work, hearty and well. I quite believe, had I not given him your Remedies, he would have died. You can use this as you please. Robert Thompson.
