The Scrub Bull Not 0 The Only Robber 0 The “Live Stock Bulletin” ha been hammering away at the Scrub Bull for years, and more and more men are satisfied that he is a curse and a robber. But he is not the only robber. The unthrifty cow may not be as big a loss as the scrub bull, but she is a heavy loss just the same. The loss of 5/- per month per cow means a loss of £ISOO in ten years on a herd of 50 cows, and a 5/- loss can easily be made by neglecting to drench a cow after calving. A good Drench means the cleansing of the system, the toning of it, the <■ strengthening of it, and the enriching of the blood. Good, rich blood means a healthy, vigorous cow in the right fettle to do her season’s work. The best of all Drenches is r Sykes’s Drench —the proved friend of Australian and New Zealand dairymen for over 20 years. Men like Mr. W. P. Brisbane, the well-known Ayrshire breeder of Victoria, swear by Sykes’s Drench. They realise the necessity for cleansing the cow’s systern and of building up her blood. Sykes’s Drench is sold at 1/6 pkt. (sufficient for drenchtwo cows) or 17/- by the dozen; in case lots of 6 dozen, 16/- per dozen. It may be obtained from all chemists and progressive stores. 2
