LETTERS ' FROM LARGE SHEEPOWNERS. THE Proprietors of COOPER'S DIP had almost abandoned the publication of Testimonials, relying on extensive salea to speak for its superiority ; but as many Dip • Makers now publish Testimonials given ONLY A MONTH OR TWO after the MRST TRIALS of their preparation, the following letters from well-known men, whose single purpose has been to find the BEST DIP, knowing that to be the cheapest, ' are now made public. car PLEASE OBSERVE THAT THESE LETTERS TELL OF Positive Results, obtained not only with large numbers of sheep, but year after year for long periods. 12 YEARS' EXPERIENCE ON 50,000 SHEEP. From Mb EDWARD EL WORTHY, Pareora, Timaru. 7th December, 1895. " T HAVE used Cooper's Dip for the past X TWELVE YEARS on an average of 50,000 SHEEP EACH YEAR, and during the whole of that period I H&VE FOUND THE RESULT MCST SATISFACTORY." SELECT COOPER AFTER 20 YEARS' TRIAL. From Mr E. H. DOBSON, Manager Lowcliffo Estate, Ashburton. 6th January, 1896. " X HAVE, during a 20 years' residen^ JL in the Ashburton County, given are the leading dips a fair trial, WITH THE RESULT THAT FOR/THE LAST THREE YEARS I HAVE USED COOPER'S EX CLUSIVELY." 11 YEARS' EXPERIENCE ON ABOUT 80,000 SHEEP. From Mb E. D. GILES, Manager, Horaley Downs and Heathstock Estates. 30th December, 1895. " ~S BEG to state that I have used Cooper's JL Dip for a number of years (since 1884), and also tried many of the other patent dips, and prefer Cooper's to any other I have used, as it stains the wool less, and is THOROUGHLY AND PERMANENTLY EFFECTIVE, if properly used, both with icks and lice." VERY SATISFACTORY FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. From Mr H. T. WINTER, Station Superintendent of N.Z. Loan and Mercantile Agency Company, Limited, Christchurch. 4th April, 1891. " T HAVE much pleasure in stating that JL I have used Cooper's Dip for a number olfyears with very satisfactory results, and ha ye found it better than any other I have tried. I USE IT NOW ON ALL THE COMPANY'S STATIONS AND FARMS UNDER MY CONTROL, the aheep being free from ticks and less sandy at shearing time." 7 YEARS' EXPERIENCE ON 33,000 SHEEP. From Mr J. E. FOUNTAINE, Manager for Sir John Hall, Horora 28th February, 1896. "TN reply to yours re Cooper's Dip, I X have used it for the last SEVEN YEARS on Sir John Hall's flock, and it has given every satisfaction. I have used several other dips, but HAVE ALWAYS FOUND COOPER'S GIVE THE BEST RESULTS." 10 YEARS' EXPERIENCE ON ABOUT 60,000 SHEEP. From Mb W. ACTON-ADAMS, Chris tohurch. 3rd January, 1896. " I* HAVE used Coopor's Dip for many JL years on the ' Salop Downs,' ' Tipapa,' 1 Woodbauk,' and ' Tarndale ' flocks, and although I have from time to time tried other dips that were strongly recommended to me, yet on the whole I am of the opinion that COOPER'S DIP IS MORE PERMANENT than any of the others, and I AM NOW USING NONE OTHER THAN COOPER'S. Though its first cost is slightly higher than Borne other dips, I fully realise that the permanency of its effects may MAKE IT CHEAPER IN THE END." AN IMMENSE USER. From Mk THOMAS BRYDONE, Manngor in New Zealand fortheN.Z. and Australian Laud Company, Ltd., Dunedin. " T HAVE pleaaure in stating that the JL N.Z. and Australian Land Co., Ltd., began to uae Cooper's Sheep Dip some seven or eight years ago on a small scale, but now dip about a QUARTER OF A MILLION SHEEP ANNUALLY with it, which is a sufficient guarantee of our opinion of its efficacy." CHEAPEST IN THE END. From Mb PETER CHALMERS, Wakanui Road, Ashburton. 11th December, 1895. " COOPER'S DIP IS MORE LASTING \J IN ITS EFFECTS THAN ANY OTHER I HAVE TRIED, and although the first cost is somewhat greater than some other dips, IN THE END IT IS THE CHEAPEST, as one dipping does j whereas, WHENEVER I HAVE USED OTHER AND CHEAPER DIPS, I HAD THE TROUBLE AND EXTRA EXPENSE OF DIPPING TWICE A YEAR." Mk HENRY OVERTON, "Highfield," Kirwee, the well-known Stud Lincoln Breeder, who acted as Judge in that much advertised Canterbury Sheep Dip Trial, IN RETURNING TO THIS USE OF COOPER, after giving another dip a trial, writes : — 10th December. " "YOU arc quite at liberty to tell the ¥ public that you have already received my order for this season, and so long as Coopor's Dip is kept up to its present standard, I SHALL USE NO OTHER." Under the above conditions, it will be a long time before Mr Overton will try any other dip.— W.C. & N. PLEASE NOTE: If the above writersall practical sheep men — find COOPER'S DIP — after trying others — serves them Best, SO ASSUREDLY WILL YOU, and be saved costly experiments on your flocks.
