THE VALUE OF DIPPING THE LAMBS.
“Dipping properly carried out repays its cost many times over.” So wrote the Chief of the Live Stock Division of the‘ Department of Agriculture recently. This is especially so in the.cast of lambs, where the advantages ofg ood breeding and a sufficiency of feed arc often lost because of parasitic filth. Lambs cannot thrive when infested with tick. The above statement has been amply proved by Mr It. Bcvan, of Manakau, who writes:—“l am more than pleased with the Quibell’s Dip that vou sent me. I dipped four hundred lambs, and I reckon it has put at last 2s per head on them. I inspected them carefully after dipping and could not find one tick alive.” Dipping the- lambs in Quibell’s NonPoisonous Liquid Dip pays the cost many times over.*
