BAD CLEANSING AT CALVING TIME. When a cow calves every attention must be given to her, so that she has every chance to regain her former vitality in order to ward off attacks of milk fever, mammitis, colds, chills, etc. Drenching her with Sykes’s Drench ensures a proper cleansing of the afterbirth, thus preventing the membrane remaining in the uterus and decomposing, setting up the various ills cows are subject to at this critical period. Remember Sykes’s Drench acts as a tonic, not as a purgative. It tones up the blood and digestive organs, and quickly restores the cow to profitable condition. Do not waste money in experiments. Use Sykes’s Drench in the first place, and avoid the disappointments which arise from the use of imitations. FoUow the advice of practical and sensible farmera and commence this season by methodically drenching every cow with Sykes’s Drench. Sold everywhere 17/- a dozen, 1/6 a packet. Each packet contains two drenches. (advt.)
