THE "SCOUR" IN CALVES

It is calculated that fully 20,000 calves have, in the past, died annually in this Colony from tlio complaint known as tno "Scours." This represents a loss to the farmers of, at least, ,£25,000. There is r.o nocessity for calvos 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: "There is no mistake, those Scour Drenches made by Ellis, of Stratford, arc a wonderful remedy. I never saw anything equal to them. I had some calves, the other day, lying almost dead from scour. I gave them one dose each, just on the oft' chance, hardly expecting them to live. Next day those same calves were strong and well, and as lively as crickets. I strongly recommend 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 fcho Scours.' These Drenches may be obtained through ill storekeepers, at Is M per packet, with full directions ; or they will bo sent tree by post on receipt of tho amount, m postal notes from tho solo manufacturer, W.
