j WALKER'S BOT-FLY REMEDY. | Ch.rtsey, January 15, 1895 To Mr Heseltine. Agent for Wa'ker'sßot fly Remedies, Ashbuv'on Sir, —I consider it my duty to add my testimony to the marvellous effects of the remedies'l got from you on my horse. He got bo bad that I had to lay him up. No imtter what I gave bim he kept lo.ing condition and became so weak that he could i scarcely e'and. I carefu'y followed the direc tions on the bottles and shortly after gett ing the last bottle he passed bots, and at once began to mend, and in a few days was fit for bis work. lam confident only for the remedy he would have died. I can highly i recommend it, believing it has no equal.— I William Stringfellow. j L'iurieron, August 18, 1894 Mr Heseltine, —Sir, I think it ia only right that I should tell you and my neighboring farmerß that I Bin thoroughly pati&fied with Walker'a Bot F>y Remedies I got from you. ' After seeing the state of the stomach of my horse that died, I.became alarmed aboat the rest of my stook as they ah looked bad, I drenched eigh h, following carefully tha direc tions, It cleaned them oufc thoroughly and in a few days there was a wonderful change for the better I oan 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 ccly safe and certain cure for the suffering of horses



Tames Lkmon Ashburton Forks, March 1, 1894 Mr J Heseltine. 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 waa ailing for some days, hia 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 d6al about Walker's Bot Fly Remedie?, and gave it with the moßt satisfactory results, and shortly after be 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 medioine unequalled, and can recommend it with all oonfidence to all horse owners, as the best horse remedy in the market. Edwabd Cobbett Greenwood Farm, Southbridge, August 2, 1892 Mr Walker. Sir,—l am glad to bear testi 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 end a bad color, and got low in condition Anxious to finish ploughing a paddock I did not want lo 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 quit better, and new at his work, hearty and well I quite believe, had I not given him your Remedies, be would have died. You oan use this as you please. Robekt Thompson Seaside Farm, Wakanui, April 14, 1894
