he ep Dipping Powder,! "■ IS THE CHE APEST AND BEST. i ' It dissolves >in ■ cold water, and should be used in preference to any other Dip [ FOR TICKS, LICE, SCAB, And for all other Sheep-Dipping Purposes. This Dip has been in use upwards of thirty years, and has never been equalled by any other; it is of uniform strength; 'requires no boiling or hot water, does not Btatn the wool,'and is equally good as a .Summer and Winter Dip. It is especially adapted to the requirements of Colonial Sheep-owners. Testimonial from JAMES Alexandeb, Esq.; Wanganui, New Zealand. . . ■ ; ; January 23fd, 1878. To Mr. W.CqoPBH,M^E.o.v.s. . j ,'; ■:■ ■ :■.. : " Four years ago a Merchant in Wanganui, New Zealand, had eight cases of your Sheep Dipping Powder, which he aeked me to buy. Not having used it before, I hesitated to try it on a large scale, so I took a few packets, and dissolved them according to jour directions, and filled my Dipping Bath, which is about five feet deep. I then selected some old Ewes for the experiment, caring but little whether I killed them or not. I made them jump into the bath and those that did not go over the head in the liquid were pushed under by a man with a stick. I allowed them to remain in the dip about the time you proscribe, and then let them walk out, which, by the construction of our bath, they were enabled t6 'do. They stood on the dripping* board until dry, and were then turned out to grass; and not one of them was injured in the least. This experiment proved, to mo that your Dipping Powder, could be used with safety on a large scale, so I purchased the ejgbt cases of Powder already roferred to and dipped my1 whole flock, numbering tea thousand Sheep, in' the same way, 'and did not lose one. I dipped for . Lice/which bad been very bad in my flock for years ; and.l have now got entirely clear of them through the ,us« of your, Powder. I still dip every year, as I think your preparation fosters tbe growth of Wool. I have not seen your dip tried for Scab, but have been told by my neighbors that it is as good for Scab as it is for Lice. ■■:■■':. After the effectual cure of my flock the demand for your Powder became great, and orders were sent to Melbourne and other places where it could be get, and the Merchant before spoken of got shipments from England, as you must be quite aware. I ha,ve dipped ovtr 50,000 Sheep with it, and never lost but one, and that one was seen licking itself just after it left the bath. I have no difficulty in dipping 1000 to 1200 in the day of eight hours, with three men. I consider that with ordinary care your Dipping Powder is as sale on a large scale in the Colonies as it in with the small flocks in England. The chief point to mind is that the Sheep are quite dry before they are turned out to grass." Prepared only by W.
