THE “SCOUR” IN CALVES.
It is calculated that fully 20,000 calves have, sin the past, died annually in this Colony:, from the complaint known as the “ Scours.” This represents a loss to the farmers of, at least, .£25,000. Thore is no ■necessity for calves to die.from scours, if the proper remedy is used in time. Mr Alex. Colson, of New Plymouth, so well and widely known in Connection with the stock sales of Mr Newton King, the well-known auctioneer, says: “ Thero is no mistake, those Scour Drenches- made'by Ellis, of Stratford, are a wonderful remedy. I never saw anything equal tq them. I had some calves, the other day, lying almost dead from scour. I gave them ono dose each, jdst on the off chance, hardly \expecting them to live. Next day, those same calves were strong and well, and as lively as crickets. I strongly recommond every farmer to keep them by him, for I can guarantee if. he uses them in time he will never have ~his calves die from the Scours. These Drenches may be obtained through all storekeepers, at Is 6d per packet, with full directions ; or they will be sent free by post on receipt of the amount, in postal notes from the'"sole manufacturer, W. A. Ellis, M.P.S., Veterinary Druggist, Stratford. The wholesale agents are Sharland and Co., Web ling toa tod Auckland,
