IMPORTANT TO FLOCK-MASTERS ! ! COOPERS SHEEP DIPPING POWDER IS THE CHEAPEST AND BEST. It dissolves in Cold Water, and shouldbe used in preference to any other Dip FOR TICKS, LICE, SCAB, AND FOR ALL OTHER SHEEP-DIPPING PURPOSES. This Dip has been in use upwards of 30 years.and has never been equalled by any other; it is of uniform strength, requires no boiling or hot water, does not stain the wool, and is equally good as a Summer and Winter Dip. It is especially recommended as a certain care for Scab, and is thoroughly adapted to all the requirements of Colonial Sheep-owners. Testimonial from JAMES ALEXANDER, Esq., WANGANUT, New Zealand. To Mr W. Cooper, M.HCV? January "Four years ago a merchant in Wangawm, New Zealand, had eleht oases of yonr Sheep Dipping Powder, which he ssked mo to buv. Not having used it- b fore, I hesitated to try it on a large ecale, so I took a f««w packets, and dissolved them according to yonr dinotions, «Dd filled tny Dipping B»th, which is about s't deep. I then selected gome old Ewe-i It the experiment, caring but little wh- ther I killed them or not. I made them jump into the bath, and those Wat rid not go over the head in the liquid were ptmhi-d under by a man with a stick. I allowed them to remain in the dip about the t'me -ou prescribe, and then let them walk out, which, by the construction of our bath, they were enabled to do. They stood on the dripping board until dry, and were then turned out to grass, and not one of thrm was injured in the least. This experiment proved wme that your Dipping Powder could be used with safety on a large scale, so I pnrch«sed the eight oaseß of Powder already referred to, and dipped my whole flock, numbering 10,000 sheep, in the same way* arid did not lose one. I dipped for Lice, whioh had been very bad in my . I°s>W V ars I * n<J I h ave now, gotentirely clear of them through the use of your Powder. I still dip every year, as 1 think your preparation fosters the growth of Wool. I have not seen your Dip tried for Scab, but have been told by my neighbors thss it is as good for Scab as it is for Lice. "After tbe effectual cure of my flock, the demand for your Powder became great, and orders were sent to Melbourne and other places where it could he got, and the merchant before spoken of got shipments from England, as you must be quito aware. • r " ' « .i.'i'u 1 have dipped over 80,000 sheep with it, and never lost but one, and that one was seen licking its If just after it |«t the ]» th - l nave no difficulty in dipping 1000 to 1200 in the day of eight hours with three men. ' I consider that with ordinary care your Dipping Powder is as safe on a large scalein the Colbnios as it is with the small flocks in finglana. The chief point to mind is that the ..heep are quite dry before they are turned out to grass."
