EAT LAMBS. [ EXPERIMENT BY THK MANAGER Off THE NORTH BRITISH AND HAWKE'S RAY PUKETAPU STATION. With 1 * a view to ascertaining the truth or otherwise of certain statements made to the profits to bo derived from dipping lamba in Quibell's Non-poisonous Liquid Dip prior to putting them on rape, tho following report from Mr M. A. M't.eod, manager of the North British and Hawko'a Bay Puketapu Station, will-be read with interest by sheop-ownera generally—i.e.— "To Messrs Dalgety and Co. (Ltd), Napier, H.B. "Dear Sirs, ''Having: heard a great deal about tho benefits to be derived by dipping lambs before putting them on rape in Quibell's Non-poisonous Dip, I resolved to prove the assertions made for mysolf. "I accordingly selected a flock of lambß of uniform quality, and' run off one-half the number, which I dipped in Quibell's Liquid as directed j tho other half I left undipped. At the end of a month both lota were sent to tho freezing works and killed; the undipped lot averaged 311b each and those- dipped, as before stated, 341b each. "In my opinion tho results far moro than justif-, ajiy olaima made for tho dip in thin direction. "Signed) M. A. M'Leod." The gain on the dipped as compared with the undipped thus shows a nroiit of something like 1500 per cent, on the cost of dipping, including labor, material, etc., a gain, surely, not to bo despised in these days of low prices for wool, cto. T>ip your lambs in Quibell's Fluid (nonpoisonous), and you can count on 1500 per cent, profit on tho operation as -in absolute certainly. DALGETY & CO., LIMITED. NEW ZEALAND AGENTS.
