Business Notices, BY BOY A L caa^^^^^^_ LETTERS PATENT. LITTLES CHEMICAL FLUID: THE NEW SHEEP DIP AND SCAB SPECIFIC (NON-POISONOUS). AFTER fowr years' trial, this NEW NON-POISONOUS DIPPING FLUID fc now universally admitted to be the beat ever introduced. Its great superiority over othei materials consists in its cheapness (costing less than |d per sheep), its undoubted efficacy in destroying all ticks, lice, and every insect that infests the skins of sheep or domestic animals, and hi its cleanliness and absolute harmlessness to those concerned in its use. ' The maaufacturers of LITTLE'S SHEEP DIP have mcveased the strength of their preparation 20 pbb cent. Although this addition absolutely causes the destruction of all insect life, the ohief motive has been to further promote and improve the growth of the wool, and the proprietors have no hesitation in aspertinjr that sheep dipped with this Fluid will not only yield heavier fleeces, but the wool itself will realise quite a halfpenny per pound more than if any other preparation bad been used. , ■ All the Fluid we are now selling is of the extra strength, and should you give it a trial, you will find the result as satisfactory as we have described it. IT MIXES READILY WITH COLD WATER. ONE GALLON WILL MAKE 100 GALLONS OP MILK-WHITE WASH (Twice the quantity made by any other non-poisonous .dip) SUFFICIENT TO DIP 200 SHEEP. Being of an oily character, it is highly beneficial to the growth of the wool, which it leaves •oft, clean, and bright, without robbing it of the yolk— its natural nourishment— or leaving it harsh •tad dry, as is the case when alkaline mixtures, such as lime, sulphur, or arsenical preparations, an«*ed. To those who dip in full fleeces, this Fluid will be found invaluable ; for, being of a warm and protecting character, sheep will not catch cold, though clipped in the depth of winter. The following Testimonials fully attest the value of LITTLE'S CHEMICAL FLUID for destroying ticks, lice, &c : — Dunedin, 22nd September 1879. Gentlemen, — I have much pleasure in stating that I have thoroughly tested " Little's Nonpoisonons Dip," and found it to be a thorough cure for lice and, ticks.

For cheapness and efficacy I consider this one of the best, if not the besc, Dip I have ever used. — I am, &c,, Benjamin P. Bayley, Chief Inspector of Sheep, Otago. 1 Elderelie, 7th November 1881.

Messrs Murray, Roberts and Co., Dunedin. Gentlemen,— To-day I received your circular informing me of the additional strength of " Little's Sheep Dip " this season, which will no doubt be a great advantage to its numerous consumers 1 ; but, irrespective of its now increased strength, I am fully satisfied of its advantages, as you are aware that I dipped my sheep with it last April, and from, that time till now I never observed a single sheep pull its wool, and during shearing there were only two ticks seen in 3500 sheep. In future I will dip every sheep, no matter whether for stores or for fattening; it would be alike satisfactory in both cases. (Signed) Peteh Robsbtson, PRICE ... ... ... stf 6d PER GALLON.
