WALKEB'S BOT-FLY EEMEDY. Cbertsey, January 15, 185)5 To Mr Headline, Agent for Walker's B6t fly Remedies, Ashburton Sib,—l consider it my doty to add my testimony to the marvellous effects of the remedies I got from you on my horse. He got so bad that I had to lay him op. No matter what I gave him he kept losing condition and became so weak that he could scarcely Bland. I earefoty followed the direc tions on the bottles and shortly after gett ing the last bottle he passed bote, and at once began to mend, and in a few days was fit for bis work. lam confident only tor the remedy he would have died. I can highly recommend it, believing it baa no equal.— WIKJASI STBINOrBLLOW. Launaton, August 18, 1894 Mr Heeeltine, —Sir, I think it is only right that I should tell you and my neighboring farmers that I am thoroughly satisfied with Walker's Bot Fly Remedies I got from yon. After seeing the state of the stomaoh of my bor-e that died, I became alarmed about the rest of my stock as they alt looked bad, I drenched eigh% following carefully the direc tions, It cleaned them out thoroughly and in a few days there was a wonderful change for the better I can highly recommend it and would advise farmers to lose no time in drenching their stock lest they have their horses dropping dead as I had, I believe it to be the only safe and ooitaua cure for the suffering of horses James Lemon Ashburton Forks, March 1, 1894 Mr J Heseltine. Sir—l em very glad to tell you that Walker's Bot-fly Remedies I got from you proved quite a success with my dying horse. He was ailing for some days, hia coat got very dry, the skin tight, & running at thejnose and a very bad cough ; and was scarcely able to walk about; we quite expected 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 get the last bottle he began to im prove and by the end of a week was able for work hearty and well I believe it to be a medicine unequalled, and can recommend it with all confidence to all horse owners, as the beat horse remedy in the market. Edward Corbett Greenwood Farm, Southbridge, August 2, 1892 Mr Walker. Sir,—l am glad to beartesU* mony to the wonderful effects of your Bot Fly-fly Remedies; One of my best horses be came very bad; the skin tight, the eye life less and a bad color, and 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 help him into a stable I gave him jour Remedies, and ton treatment you pre scribed, and in a few days he was quite better, and new 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 Seaside Farm, Wakanui, April 14, 1894 Mr Walker. Dear Sir, —I have great pleasure ; in informing you that the bot-fly mixture I got from Mr Hetseltioe, your agent, was a wonderful auocesß. I bad four horses seriously ill on December last. After using all the remedies I could think of I was induced to try your mixture. The result was mar vellous, I strictly followed the directions given and in a week the horses were out of danger and recovering rapidly I drenched two more in February with the same result They all put on flesh rapidly, and are now in prime order P. Stewart Mr Cross. Burnham, got the Remedy for a horse suffering last year; on reaching home he was dead. This season one took bad, also showing the symptoms. He gave the Remedy, and the second day after, the horse passed bots in hundreds and is doing well. Chertsey, April 12,1895 Mr Hpseltjnp, Asbburton, Agent for Walker's Bot-fly Remedies Sib,—The remedies I got from you had a wonderful efftet on my horsp, he got sp bad that I had to lay him np quite expecting to lose him I tiled tha usual remedies Jut he only got worse, at last I Rive him Wa kerß with astonishing results, B>ts came aw*y in hnndfuls and i'> a few tfays be wjs hearty and well from the eff ots of this remedy on my neighbours horses and my own I consider blessing to horse owners and c-uld tbe poor ufiferins hoißea apeak they wou'd certainly praise Walkers Bot-fly Remedi s as the bett ever introduced in:o this market Ji UN DOWSIE Anama, Aprl 3,1895 Mr Heseliice Sir, —I have pUasureii&aa fviog to the wonderful effeo s of Walker's 80-fly Ramedies on icy htrses, They got very low in condition, a ("ry coat, and very tight skin, and lost all heart at their wcrk. I had to lay them up. Hearing so much about this remedy I deaided to give it a trial, I followed carefully the directions on the labels and the results were euoh as to satisfy me that it isjhe only remedy for the suffering horse. lam certain 1 got baok tbe cost in their work inside a week.
