WALKER'S BOT-FLY I BEMEDY. Chertsey, January 15, 1895 To Mr Heseltine, Agent for Walker's Bot-fly Remedies, Ashburlon Sib, —I consider it my duty to add my testimony to the marvellous eSeefcs of the remedies I got from you on my horse. He got bo bad tfast I had to lay him up. No matter what I gave him be kept losing condition and became bo weak that be could scarcely stand. I oarefuly followed the direc tions on tha bottles and shortly after gett ing the last bottle he passed bots, and at once began to mend, and in r few days was fit for hie work. lam confident only tot the remedy he would have died. I can highly recommend it, believing it has no equal.— William Stbinofellow. Launeton, August 18, 1891 Mr Heseltine, —Sir, I think it ie 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 you. Alter seeing the state of the stomach of my horse that died, I became alarmed about the rest of my stook as they alt looked bad, I drenched eight, following oarefully 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 ac I had, I believe it to be the only safe and certain cure for the suffering of horses James Lemon Ashburton Forks, March 1, 1894



Mr J HeseUine. Sir—l am very glad to tell you that Walker's Bot-fly Bemediee I got from you proved quite a Bueeese with my dying horse. He was ailing for come days, his coat got very dry, the skin tight, a running j at the nose and a very bad oough ; and was scarcely able to walk about; 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 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 ie to be a medicine unequalled, and can recommend it with all confidence to all horse owners, as She best horse remedy in the market. Edwabd Cobbett Greenwood Farm, Southbridge, August 2, 1892 Mr Walker. Sir,-—I Bra glad to bear testi mony to the wonderful effects of your Bot .Fiy-fiy 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 your .Remedies, and tna treatment you pre scribed, and in a few days be was quite better, and new at his work, hearty and well I quite believe, had I not given him your Remedies, he wouid have died. You oan uae this as you please.



Robebx 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 Heaeltine, your agent, wae a wonderful success, I had four horses eeriouslv ill on December last. After using al! 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 horees 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 prims order P. Stewart Mr Cross. Burnbam, got the Remedy for a horse suffering last year ; on reaching home he was dead. This season one took bad, blbo showing the symptoms. He gave the Remedy, and the seoond day after, the horse passed bots in hundreds and is doing well.



Chertsey, April 12, 1895 Mr Heeeltine, Ashburton, Agent for Walker's Bot-fly Remedies Sib, —The remedies I got from you had a wonderful effect on my horse, he got ao bad ihit I had to lay him up quite expecting to lose him I tried the usual remedies tut he only got worse, at last I gave him Walkers with astonishing results, Bats came away in handfula and i»> a few days be was hearty and well from the effects of this remedy on my neighbours horses and my own I consider blessing to horse owners and could the poor raftering horses speak they would certainly praise Walkers Bot-fly Remedies as the beet ever introduced into this market



John Downie Anama, April 8,1895 Mr HeseKioe, Sir,—l have pleasure in lying to the wonderful effects of Walker's Bot-fly Remedies on my horses, They got very low in condition, a dry coat, and very tight skin, and lost all heart at their work, had io lay them up, Hearing so muoh about this remedy I decided to give it a trial. I followed carefully tho directions on the labels and the retulta were fuoh as to satisfy ran that it is the only remedy for the suiJering horse. lam certain 1 got back the cost in ihei work inside a week. I shall certainly use it in future in preference to anything else as it has no equal M J TWEEDIE AGENTS FOR ASH BURTON—J Hesel Tine, Saddler; Recardus Henry, Saddler.
