TO SHEEPOWNERS.

NOW the Wool Market is firmer, and prices are ruling higher every day, SAVE TOUR SHEEP that would otherwise be worthless, at a cost of ONE HALFPENNY per HEAD. It has often been remarked, and is undoubtedly true, that the sheepowners’ worst enemy is FOOTROT. Its effects are soon shown in the declining condition of the sheep and its wool, and although lately many scientific opinions have been expressed with regard to it in the public Press, there is no doubt that the so-called remedies there suggested have all been tried in these colonies, ending only in disappointment and failure, the result being that in using arsenic, vitriol, carbolic acid, and other things that are recommended, they have added fuel to the fire in burning the sheeps’ feet altogether, and in most instances making them worse than before. With all deference to the opinions of these scientific men, our thirty years’ practical (not theoretical) experience of sheep, and study of this question, has led us to come to the conclusion that the CAUSES and NATURE of this disease are not understood, and up to the present time it has always been wrongly treated. We invite the public to read the following testimonial, which shows that we CAN CURB FOOTROT for OVER TWELVE MONTHS, and this in a case where all other means had been tried and failed: —

“ Flaxton, June 28th, 886. «Messrs W. Graham and Co., Southbrook. “ Dear Sirs,—We have pleasure in stating that the sheep you dressed for us in May 1885, OYER TWELVE MONTHS AGO, have remained PERFECTLY SOUND on their feet ever since, and are still running on the SAME MARSHY SWAMP without showing any signs of FOOTROT.—Yours faithfully, Wallace Bbos," We can also bring PROOF that we have not failed in any single instance to effect a COMPLETE CURE, even in the worst cases, where numbers of sheep have DIED EVERY YEAR. Our chief difficulty is to CONYINOB the public that this is not one of the many spurious patent medicines which have from time to time been foisted upon them, but we trust the following disinterested testimonial to our Agents will set them right:— “ Leslie Hills, Oulverden, “ June 17th, 1886.

“ Messrs Matson, Buss and 00., Rangiora. “ Dear Sirs,—l notice by the Standard ( that Graham and 00. are now offering their cure for footrot for sale to the public. I have always been very sceptical as to the results of wiese patent cures for diseases in sheep, of which we have had so many offered us of late. I am quite satisfied that if Graham and 00. will only sell us the quality £»f stuff as he used himself when working on footrot sheep in this district, there will be no necessity for Graham and 00. to go to Kimberley for some years, I have seen a good deal of the Montrose rams these few years; they were TEEBIBLT BAD with footrot, and as Graham cured them with two dressings, I am NOW SATISFIED that a CUBE for footrot HAS BEEN FOUND. I 1 have never had any footrot on this property till the other dav a few footrot sheep came in a mob of crossbreds from turnips. Please send mo at once a gallon of Graham and Oo.’s Patent, to the care of D , and oblige.— Yours faithfully, Dtooah Eutheefobd.” We can assure the public that we have only one standard for our Preparation, and that is the BEST. It is carefully manufactured from the best ingredients obtainable, and we are determined to maintain its present popularity! . . We GUARANTEE to keep stations entirely FREE from FOOTROT on the most reasonable annual terms. We are open to PURCHASE sheep afflicted with footrot, NO MATTER HOW BAD, therefore do not have them destroyed, or allow them to die.
