Mr Heseltine,—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 Ply Remedies I got from you. After seeing the state of the stomach of my boree that died, I beoame alarmed about the rest of my stock as they all looked bad, I drenched eight, 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 horsefl dropping dead as I had, I believe it to be the only safe and certain cure for the suffering of horses James Lemon Aahburton Forkp, 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 waa ailing for soma days, hii coat got very dry, the skin tight, a running at the nose and a very bad cough ; and was scarcely able to walk about; we quite expected he would die. I heard a good d&al about Walker's Bot Fly Remediea, and gave it with the most satisfactory results, and shortly after be %i I the last bottle he began to im prove and by the end of a week was able for work hearty end well I believe it to be a medicine unequalled, and can reoommend it with all confidenoe to all horse owners, as the belt taorae remedy in the market. Edward Cobbett Greenwood Farm, Southbridge, Augusts, 1892 Mr Waiker. Sir,—l am t?lad to bear testi mony to the wonderful effeots of your Bot Fly-fly Remedies; One of my be6t horses be earns very bad; the Bkin tight, the eye life less and a bnd 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 your Remedies, and tne 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 Riven him your Remedies, he would have died. You oan use this as you please. Robebt Thompson Seaside Farm, Wakauui, April 14, 1894 Mr Walker.Dear Sir,—l have great pleasure in informing you that the bot-fly mixture I got from Mr H>-Beltinp, your agent, was c wondarful success. I had (our howe teriously ill on December last. After using ali the remedies I could think of I w&s induced to try ynur mixturp.
