HOWDEN & MONCRIEFF, NURSERYMEN SEEDSMEN, 51 Princes Street, DUNEDIN. HENRY BOWIE, Agent, CROMWELL. TOXA TOXA. TOXA. The Toxa Rabbit Poison has evidently come to stay, and through its agency the Rabbits will (as they say in America of the Chinese) have to go ; our friends, the runholders, will be glad to hear that wherever this powerful and attractive preparation has been well tried, the results have been all that could be desired. The manager of the company informs us that on one station no less a quantity than a quarter of a million of rabbits were killed with toxa. in the course of 12 weeks, and the laud has been so cleaned of the vermin that several thousand more sheep will, in the spiing, be placed on the property than it has been able to carry in former years. The small bird post is perhaps not so severely felt in this district as it is on the Canterbury Plains ; but still we have more than we require, and their numbers could be sensibly reduced, “ and they never would be missed.” Those who wish to save their crops and fruit trees from the depredations of these feathered nuisances, should try Toxa poisoned grain, an article that enjoys a considerable sale for this purpose in other parts of the Province. The Otago Agents for TOXA RABBIT & BIRD POISONS ARE MESSRS STRONACH BROS. & MORRIS, Stock and Station Agents, DUNEDIN. Are you interested in the rabbit question ? Have you ever given “Toxa” a thorough and exhaustive trial ? If you have not done so now is the time to do it. READ THIS, Dunedin, June 14, 1894. To the manager “ TOXA ” Manufacturing Co., Dunedin. Dear Sir, —We are very pleased indeed with your rabbit po’son. Mr Donald M ‘Gibbon, of Branches Station, Upper Shotover, in sending an order for “TOXA ” writes as follows “Send this on as soon as possible, as I find the ‘ TOX A ’ is better in hard frosty weather than Phosphorus.” Yours Faithfully, Stronach Bros, and Morris, Otago Agents for “Toxa.” AND THESE,— Abbotsford, North Island, June 9, 1894. To W. Lowes, Esq , Agent for “TOXA,” Masterton. Dear Sir, —We are very pleased indeed with the rabbit poison we got through your agency. In our opinion it is far and away the most killing poison which has yet been invented for the destruction of toe pest. We look forward to as good results during the coming spring and summer as we have already experienced during the six weeks we have used it, —Yours Faithfully, Whatman Bros. Masterton, June 2, 1894. Messrs Low r es and loins, Agents for “ TOXA” Manufacturing Co. Dear Sirs, —We have used a considerable quantity of “TOXA,” and the results have more than fulfilled expectations. We shall continue to Jay it, believing that it will prove to be the solution of the rabbit difficulty in rough country. —We are, etc., Cameron Bros. Stew-art and M‘Gee. Wooloomooloo Station, Hay (N.S W.), May 23, 1894: We have much pleasure in stating that we have found the “ TOX \ ” rabbit poison which you sent us to be without a doubt the best exterminator yet invented for use at this time of the year when feed is so plentiful and rabbits are breeding. At a trip round a warren with a small tin we got 244 rabbits, and as we got all the skins they paid fully four times what the “ TOXA ” cost to kill them. “TOXA” can be used in the Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter ; in fact, it is the only poison that rabbits will take in the Summer. “TOXA” BIRD POISON The best preparation on the maiket for killing sparrows, green linnets and other grain-eating small birds.
