AFTER four years' trial, this NEW NON-POISONOUS DIPPING FLUID is now universally admitted to be the best ever introduced. Its great superiority ovi'r othtj materials consists in its cheapness (costing less than §d per sheep), its undoubted efficacy ii destroying all ticks, lice, and every insect that infests the skins of sheep or domestic auuuals, aau> in its cleanliness and absolute harmlesaness to those concerned in its use. The manufacturers of LITTLE'S SHEEP DIP have increased the strength of thei. preparation 20 per cent. Although this addition absolutely causes the destruction of all inseci life, the chief motive has been to further promote and improve the growth of the wool, and thi proprietors have do hesitation in asserting that sheep dipped with this Fluid will not only yid<' heavier fleeces, but the wool itself will realise quite a halfpenny per pound more than if any othei preparation had been used. All the Fluid we are now selling is of the extra strength, and should you give it a trial, you will fiud the result as satisfactory as we have described it. IT MIXES READILY WITH COLD WATER. ONI3 GALLON WILL MAKE 100 GALLONS OF MILE-WHITE WASH (Twice the quantity made by any othfr non-po?,«onous dip) SUFFICIENT TO DIP 200 SHEEP. Being of an oily character, it is highly beneficial to the growth of the wool, which it leave soft-, clean, and b y !ght, without robbing it of the yolk — its natural nourishment— or leaving it bar.}. and dry, as is tbeesasK when alkaline mixture", such as lime, sulphur, or arsenical preparations, ft'iisfd. To i hose who dip in full fleeces, this Fluid will be found invaluable ; for. being of a warm a.t.i protecting character, sheep will not catch cold, though dipped iv the depth of winter. The following Testimonials fully attest the value of LITTLE'S CHEMICAL FLUID for destroying ticks, lice, &c : — Dunedin, 22nd Septembor 157.9.

TESTIMONIAL. " "- 'V.- 2 ' * The following is one of numerous Testimonials received in its favour:— Shag Valley Station, 23rd February 1886. Mr J. S. Reirl, Dunedin. Dear Sir,— l am in recoipt of yours of 16th inst., and willingly give you my opinion as to the merits of your Titan Wire Strainer. After a fair trial, I have found your Strainer to be light, handy, and compact, and at the same time strong and durable. It has proved thoroughly efticfrut in either putting a tight strain on a fence from a straining post, or repairing or tightening a broken wire in tbe mi<idle of a strain. Though my fencers were ak.first'greatly prejudiced against any new kind of Strainer, they now admifc the advantages of the Titan and never think of using the old windlass and handles. I have now supplied my boundary shepherds with « ny each, and expect them, and have no doubt they will be able, to keep the boundary fences in coiu« plete repair with but little loss of time from their regular work. Until using your strainer 1 had never seen one combining lightness, simplicity in working, and efficiency ; but I am now satisfied with the Titan on all three points. I can confidently recommend it, therefore, as a very valuable acquisition to farmers and other having fences to erect and keep in repair. — I am, &c., Fpank D, Bell. Price, 17s Gd each. A ILibera!
