WALKER'S BOT-FLY REMEDY.

Chertßey, January 15, 1895 I To Mr Heseltine. Agent for Walker's Botfly Remedies, Ashburton Sib,~-I consider it my duty to add my testimony to the marveliouß effects of ihe remedies I got from you on my horse. He got bo bad that I had to lay him up. No matter what I gave him he kept losing oondition and became co weak that he oould scarcely stand. I earefuly 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 his work. lam oonfident only for the remedy he would have died. I can highly recommend it, believing it has no equal.— WIMdtAM StBINGFEUjOW. Launaton, August 18, 1894 i 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 Fly Remedies I got from you. After seeing the state of the stomach of my horse that died, I became alarmed about the test 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 loae no time in drenching their atook lest they have their horses diopping dead as I had, I believe it to be the only safe ana certain cure for the suffering of horses Tames Lemon Ashburton Forks, March 1, 1894 Mr J Heseltine, Sir—l am very glad to tell you that Walker's Boc-fly Remedies I got from you proved quite a suooess with my dying horse. He was ailing for some 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 expeoted he would die. I heard a good deal about Walker's Bot Fly Eemedies, and gave it with the most 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 medicine unequalled, and can reoommend it with all confidence to all horse owners, as the best horea remedy in the market. Edwabd Cobbbtt Greenwood Farm, Southbiidge, August 2, 1892 Mr Walker. Sir,—l am glad to bear testi. i mony to the wonderful effeots of your Bot Fly-fly Remedies; One of my best horses be oame 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 tne treatment you pre scribed, and in a few days he was quite better, and now at his 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. Robrrt Thompson Seaside Farm, Wakanoi, April 14, 1994 Mr Walker.Dear Sir, —I have great pleasure in informing you that the bot-fly mixture I got from Mr Heaeltine, your agent, was a wonderful suooess, I had four horses seriously ill on December last. After using all the remedies I could think of I was induced to try your mixture. The result waß mar vellous, I strictly followed the directions given and in a week the horses were out of danger and recovering rapidly I drenohed two more in February with the same result They all put on flesh rapidly, and are now in prime orde P. Stewart Chertsey, April 12, 1895 Mr Heseltine, Ashburton, Agent for Walker's Bot-fly Remedies gi K| —The remedies I got from you had a wonderful effect on my horse, he got ao bad that I had to lay him up quite expecting to lose him I tried the usual remedies hut he only got worse, at last I pave him Walkers with astonishing results, Bots came away in handfuls and in a few <isys he was hearty and well from the effects of this remedy on my neighbours horses and my own I oon?ider blessing to horse owners and oould the poor offering horses speak they would certainly praise Walkers Bot-fly Remedies as the best ever introduced into this market John Downie Anama, April 3, 1895 Mr Heaeltine, Sir,—l have pleasure in ving to the wonderful effects of Walker's Bot-fly Remedies on my hcrees, They got very low in condition, a dry coat, and very tight skin, and lost all heart at their work, had to lay them up. Hearing so much about this remedy 1 deaided to give it a trial. I tollowod carefully the directions on the labels and the results were fuch aa to satisfy me that it is the only remedy for the Buffering horße. lam certain 1 got back the cost in thei work inside a week. I shall certainly use it in future in preference to anything else as it Das no equal M J TwEEDIE Mr Cross. Burnham, got the Remedy for horse suffering last year; on reaching home foe was dead. This season one took bad, also showing the symptoina. He gave the Remedy, and the aecoud day after, the horae passed bots in hundreds and is doing well.
