EAD tin-: following opinions of Government Inspectors of Stock : Department of Agriculture, Hawera, Dear Sir, —In reply to your request as to my reporting to you my opinion of the result of your dressing sheep at Mr Lysaght's and Mr Nicholas' with your Foot-Rot Specific, I have every confidence in saying that the cure was a perfect one, although the weather was very wet and stormy, and the examination was only six days after the feet had been dressed. Some of the sheep were very badly afiected, nearly the whole of the foot having rotted off. I should recommend all sheep owners to use your Specific if their sheep are troubled with Foot Rot, as it is easily put on, and I am sure it will give satisfaction. I remain, yours truly, Alexander Monro, Inspector of Stock. June 32nd, 1895. Palmekston* North, Department of Agriculture. In compliance with your request that I would give you a testimonial re your " Permanent Foot-Rot Cure," I beg to state that I was present when you dressed eight affected sheep belonging to Mr Chas. Bull, also twelve belonging to Mr S. Mcßae, and on examination about three weeks later I found Mr Bull's to be thoroughly cured, and all but one of Mr Mcßae's, that being affected in one foot only. This, I may state, was a specially bad case at the time of dressing, and from the improvement shown, I have little doubt would be thoroughly cured by a second application of your Specific. Arthur K. Blundell, Inspector of Stock. 17th July, 1895.
