No matter what I gave bim be kept losing condition and became so weak that he could scarcely stand. I careiuiy followed the direc tions on the bottles and shortly after sett* iog the laet bottle he passed bota, and at once began to mend, and in a few days was fit for bia work. lam confident only for the remedy he would have died.

Lauriiton, August 18,1694 Mr Heaehine,-Bir, I ibick it Is only tight that I Bhould tell you and my neighboring farmera that I am thoroughly satisfied with Walker's Bot Fly Remedies I got from you. After seeing the state of the stomach of my horee that died, I heoama alarmed about the rest of my stock as they all looked bad, I drenched eight, following ouefully the direc tions, It cleaned them out thoroughly sod in a few days there was a wonderful change for the better I oan highly recommend it and would advise farmers to lose do time in drenching their stock lest they have their horns dropping dead as I had, I believe it to be the only safe and otrtain cure for the suffering of horses - Jambs Limon Aehburton Forks, March 1,1894 Mr J Eeseltine. Sir—l am 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, his coat got very dry, the skin tight, a running at the nose and a very bad cough ; and was scarcely able to walkabout; we quite expected he would die. I heard a good deal about Walker's Bot Fly Remedied, and gave it with the most satisfactory results, and shortly after be git 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 s medicine unequalled, and oan recommend i' with air confidence to all horse owners, as the best horse remedy in the market. Edward Corbstt Greenwood Farm, Boutbbndge, August is, 1892 Mr Walker. Sir,—l am glad to bear teati 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 leJßß and a bad color, and got low in condition Anxious io finish ploughing a paddock I did not want to lay him up until he became uo able to lift his feet or do any more. We had to help him into a stable I gave him your Remedies, and tno treatment you pre scribed, and in a few days he was quite better, and new at his work, hearty and well I qnite believe, had I not Riven him your Remedies, he would have died. Tou oan use this as you please. Robert Thompson Seaside Farm, Wakanui, April 14, 1894 Mr Walker.Dear Sir,—l have great pleasure in informing you that; the bot-fly mixture I got from Mr Heseltioe, your agent, was a wonderful success. I had four horse a seriously ill on December last. After using all the remedies I could think of I was induced to try your mixture.

Stewabt 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, flo gave tbeßemedy, and the second day after, the horse passed bots In hundreds and is doing well.
