jpixlblic Notices. THE WONDER OP THE WORLD. HERMAN’S WORLD-BEN OWNED SHEEP WASH AND CELEBRATED VERMIN DESTROYER. This preparation is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to anything yet discovered for eradicating tick, scab, or lice on sheep, goats, or cattle. It is sufficient to say that one SHILLING PACKET of the Powder dissolved in two buckets of water will wash EIGHTEEN SHEEP. This admits the most economical as well as the simplest plan in the world for the cure and prevention of diseases incident to farm stock. By its use the farmer can secure the health of his stock at the rate of fd per head per annum. In all large Sheep Districts in Australia, South America, and Africa no other preparation is used. The Vermin Destroyer

is also invaluable for the purpose of the Horticulturist: and it is most extensively used by the Flower and Kitchen Gardener in Europe, America, and the British possessions in all parts of the Globe. One packet dissolved in two buckets of water will serve for over half-an-aore of ground, and will effectually prevent blight and exolude all other garden pests. As a VEBMIN KILLER it is an unrivalled specific. Its use will speedily xterminate all household pests, such as bugs, cockroaches, fleas on animals, moths in fnrs, and insects on birds of all kinds, from the canary to the poultry. For this purpose simple and plain directions are given on every packet. The powder can also be used in a dry state for the destruction of rats and mice. A little sprinkled on a slice of bread and butter, or a piece of meat or cheese is sought after greedily by those vermin, while the household pets, such as cats and dogs, will not touch it in any form, and are therefore perfectly safe. The above marvellous discovery has gained for Herman Bros, and Co., London, the silver medal at the Intercolonial Exhibition, Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous testimonials from Government officials and

all the elite of the medical faculty in Europe. HERMAN BEOS. & CO., beg to announce that they have appointed aa sole agent for South Canterbury W. GUNN, Chemist, Timaru,and from him the preparation can be obtained in parcels. Price ONE SHILLING ; or six packets for FIVE SHILLINGS. Liberal reduction allowed to the Trade.

WILLIAM LEWIS. Stoneleigh, near Skipton. I have seen Jackson’s Patent Sheep Lift \t work, and I consider it a valuable invention ; the sheep are got under the jets while the wool is hot; the washing is greatly facilited; the sheep are saved horn injury by rough usage, and the colour and condition of the wool is improved, PETER McINTYEB, Makwallak.
