THE SHEEP LOUSE.
AS A DESTEOYEROFTHEFLEECE, There is no doubt at all tbab the little red sheep louse is responsible for the loss of many thousands of pounds to the pastoraliais of Nevr Zealand overy year, Wool rubbed and matt d will not fetch, within pence per pound ef wool well grown and with a bright lustre, Yet thiore is no reason at all why thu serious leak in the farmer's returns should continue, The great specific for lice in sheep—Quibell's' : Patent Improved Powder Dip—is on sale everywhere, and while it,is a stronti stitement to make, it is a fact that no case of lice infected sheep, where this fasious preparation has been nn&d, has ever come before the courts.
Interested sheep-owners should investigate this statement for themselves, and ask any oE their neighbours who have mod Quibell's Patent Improved Powder Dip what they think of it
