It was noticed that clinging to the end of almost every hair of the cow's hide were' innumerable lice. Ah effort was made to roughly estimate their number, and by taking a patch six inches square and counting them and multiplying the remaining space a conservative estimate put. the number of lice on the cow in question at the incredible number of half a 'million. A farmer present made the observation that almost half the cows ■ in the Waikato were infected with, lice in the Winter and early Springy and also that in his opinion this reduced their milk yield at least onequarter. Just reckon the astounding waste: If half the herds in the country are infected with lice, and .a, quarter ,of their yield lost to the farm-/ er, it means that thousands of pounds every year go to feed these hungry parasites. Here, then is a remedy: Buy a tin of "THOMPSON'S LICERINE" and smear a little down the animal's back. "Licerine" kille them all. An absolutely new preparation—wonderful in its results. Effective on cattle, horses and pigs. For Cattle Tick: Apply small quantity on affected parts. Obtainable at all Stores, oi* 2tb sample tin posted on receipt of 3/6.
