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 case of lambs, where the advantages of good breeding and a sufficiency of feed are often lost because of parasitic filth. Lambs cannot thrive when infested with tick. The above statement has been amply proved by Mr R. Bevan, of Manakau, who writes:—“l am more than pleased with the Quibell’s Dip that you sent me. I dipped four hundred lamb", 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 NoilPoisonous Liquid Dip pays the cost many times over.*

Most important is it that the' smoker should know the percentage of nicotine in the tobacco he uses—for even the most robust constitution is undermined by this poison when absorbed by the system regularly and in large quantities. American tobaccos contain as much as 4 per cent, and 5 per cent, of nicotine. Smokers will be interested to learn that our Now Zealand-grown tobacco contains only 14 per cent, of nicotine. Small wonder that it is so much milder and less harmful. New Zealand has now its own tobacco industry, and we can well bo proud of the local product. Recently tile quality of Gold Pouch iobaccci has been greatly improved, and nothing more perfect and purer <an possibly. be produced than the New Aromatic blend of . Gold Pouch, which excels all foreign tobaccos, in mildness, in. flavor and combustibility. More economical, too —a big stout bag for Is. Cigarette smokers should use the N.Z.-grown Three Diamonds tobacco, which leaves no sharp and bitter aftertaste like the yellow brands -'from oversea.*
