• I work hearty and well I believe it to be a t medicine unequalled, and oan recommend it 3 . with all confidence to all horse ownerß, as the i beet horse rem;dy in the market, 1 Edward Cobbett Greenwood Farm, ' iv m"i Southbridge, August 2, 1892 ! Mr Walker. Sir,—l am Rlad to bear testi. mony to the wonderful effeots of your Bot Fly-fly Remedies; One of my best horses be came very bad; the skin tight, the eye life- Jess and a bad oolor, ahd got low in condition Anxious to finish ploughing a paddock I did not want to lay him up until he became un able to lift his feet or do any more. We had to hblp him into a stable I gave him jour Remedies, and tne treatment you pre eonbed, and in a few days he was quite better, and now at his work, hearty ana wall I quite believe, had I not given him your Eemedies, he would have died. You oan use this as you please. Robert Thompson Seaside Farm, m wll rv Wakanui, April 14, 1894 Mr Walker.Dear Sir,-I have great pleasure in informing you that the bot-fly mixture I got from Mr Heseltine, your agent, waa a wonderful suocese. I had four horses seriously ill on December last. After using all the remedies I could think of I was induced to try your mixture. The reßult was mar vellous, I strictly followed the directiona given and in a week the horses were out of danger and recovering rapidly I drenohed two more in February with the same result The, all put on flesh rapidly, and are now in prime order P. Stewasi Mr Cross. Burnbam, got the Remedy for a horse suffering last year; on reaching'home be waa dead. Tb l3 season one took bad, also showing the symptoms. He gave tfaeßemedy, and she second day after, the horse passed bots »n hunarsda and is doing well.

Mr Sleisenger, Veterinary Surgeon, Dart ediin, writes:—l am acquainted with thai nuisance more than any veterinary in the Colony, having had great experience it America U S andpraeti ed my profession ie Victoria and New Zealand to such satisfac o ion to the public that no veterinary in the b olonie3 can produce testimonials of the ures effeoted as myself. I have had hunhreds under my treatment, the same which I gave to Mr R Watker, and every horse I treated recovered when taken in time. Walker's Bot-fly Remedies therefore are the only proved guaranteed cure for the bots and ahoud be given to every horse at once, whether he shows signs or not Liuriston, August 18, 1894 Mr Heseltine,—Sir, I think it is only right that I should tell you and my neighboring farmers that I am ihoroughly satisfied with Walker's Bot Fiy Remedies I got from you. After seeing the state of the stomach of my horee that died, I became alarmed about the rest of my stock as they all looked bad, I drenohed eight, following carefully the direc tions, It cleaned them out thoroughly and in a few days there was 1 wonderful change for the better I oan highly recommend it and would advise farmers to loee no time in drenching their stock lest they have their horses dropping dead as I had, I be!i?ve it to be the only safe and certain cure for the suffering of horses James Lemon Ashburlon Fork?, March 1, 1894 Mr J Heseltine. Sir—l cm very glad to tell you that Walker's Bot-fly Remedies I got from you proved quite a success with my dying horse. Ho was ailing for soma days, his coat got very dry, the skin tight, a running at the nose and a very bad cough ; and was scarcely able to walk abouf; we quite expected j he would die. I heard a good deal about Walker's Bot Fly Remedies, and gave it with the most satisfactory results, and shortly ' after he gat the last bottle he began to im- j Drove and by the end of a week wan able for
