WALKER S BOT-FLY j REMEDY. "* j Chertsey, Januory 15, 1895 To Mr Heseltine. Agent for Walker's Bot fly Remedied, Ashburton Sib,—l consider it my duty -to.add n>y testimony to the marvellous effects of ihe remedies I got from you on my horse. He got bo bad tint I bad to lay him up. No nutter what I gave him he kept loosing condition and became co week that he oould scarcely stand. I carefuly followed the direc tions on the bottles and sturdy af er gett ing the bet boule he passed hots, and at once becan to mend, and in a few days was fit. lor bis woik. lam oor fid.nt only for the remedy he would have H d. I can highly r. commend it, belie vir git has no equal — Wiiii-iAai Stbingfellow. Launsron, August 18, 1894 Mr Heseltine,—Sir, I ihink it is only right that I should tell yen and my neighboring farmers that I am thoroughly eatfcfhd with Walker's Bot Fly Remedies I got from you. After seeing the state of the stomuoh of my horse that died, I became alarmed about the rest of my stock as they all looked bad, I drenched eight, following oirefully 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 acd 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 certain ouie for the laffering of horses Tahzb Limon Ashburton Forks, March 1, 1894 Mr J Heseltine. Sir—l am very glad to tell you that Walker's Bot-fly Remedies t got from you proved quite a success with my dying horse. He was ailing for soon days, bis coat got very dry, the skin tight, a running at the nose and a very bad oough ; and was ■oaroely able to walk about; we quite expected he would diet I heard a good deal about Walker'a Bot Fly Remedies, and gave it with the most satisfactory results, and shortly af er he g( t 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 best horse remedy in the market. Edwabs Cobbkti Greenwood Farm, Southbridge, Augusta, 2892 Mr Walker. Sir,—l am glad to bear testi mony to the wonderful effects of your Bot Fly-fly Remedies; One of my beet horses be came very bad; the skin tight, the eye life less and a bad color, ahd got low in oondition Anxious to finish ploughing a paddock I did not want to lay him up until be became un able to lift his feet or do any more. We had to help him in!o a stable I gave him your Remedies, acd tne treatment you pre scribed, and in a few days be waa quite better, and new at bis 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,—l have great pleasure in informing you that the bot-fly mixture I got from Mr Heseltiae, your agent, was a wonderful success. I had four horses seriously ill on December last. After using all the remedies I oould 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. Stkwabt Mr Dross. Burnham, got the Remedy for a borse suffering last year; on reaching home be was dead. This season one look bad, also showing the symptoms. He gave the Remedy, and the second day after, the horse passed bote in hundreds and is doing well.
