PAUPERS ON THE FARM.
Why keep an army of paupers? Ticks and Lice are paupers— and fat ones at that. You cannot grow good wool and good mutton— and good Ticks too. Coopers Dip' will, however, clear out these paupers, and 'if usedas directed, prevent them from returning for the longest possible period after ; leaving the sheep with nothing to do but to eat and grow fat, and yield good fleeceei Coopers' Dip. was. invented sixtyiive years ago especially to acoomplish these purposes. That it has well succeeded, is proved by very remarkable facts, which admit of no comparison. It would be invidious, and unprao^ tioable, too, to publish the names of all the great sheep breeders who use Cooper's Dip. for .their name is legion. And the same applies to the top'prices realised by Cooper-dipped clips. As an instance, take that great sheep gathering of the world, namely, the Royal Agricultural Show cf England. The latest census to hand shows that out of 229 sheep prizes awarded, every prize- winner- excepting only two— was a user of Cooper's Dip. And. by the way, please note that this occurred in the British Isies, where all the leadin* dips of the world are manufactured and pushed for all! they are worth. ' . Please take another instacce. Tasmaniah flocks are perhaps the highest - priced and finest-wbolled sheep in the world* According to a census taken there.'five-sixtbs of the leading breeders use "Cooper/" If individual, .instances were quoted, here would be found a. proof of the superior merits of. "Cooper." The Belles Vue Stobk is .historic.- Pro* b ably no Merino flock in the world has secured so many princely prices as Belle Vue sheep. "President" was a Belle Vue dheep, and realised 1600 guineas. And it was only .the other day that the manager of this classic flodk told the writer that of all the dips that had been used on Belle Vue, Cooper's tad given the greatest satisfaction; and; nobody need now try to persuade him to use any other dip. .. Another prominent Tasmanum breeder was, however, last season diverted from "Cooper" by arguments that a certain other dipping powder, "Whilst being the same as 'Cooper's' was more finely prepared." But this gentleman has recently signified his intention to return to tfce use of "Cooper" in future. In every wool-growing "country in tb9 world, Cooper's Dip pcoupies a similar position. King Edward, by Royal Warrant, recently appointed the * proprietors of Cooper's Dip, Sheep Dip Manufacturers to His Majesty, and by Royal Decree "Cooper" has been officially recommended, on account of its superior merits, for use upon the flocks of the Spanish nation. The merits of Coopßr's Dip are not only recognised by : great sheepbreeders, hut by the rank and file of the sheepowners of tne world, for the annual sales of "Cooper" suffice to dip over 240 millions of sheep. All through the period of Bixty-five years it has thus constantly and steadily increased in popularity- and ■. esteem. ' . : ■ '" • ■ • " ' Tbis acceptance throughout the pastprai world may not, perhapi, justify the assumption that Copper's is the best sheep dip. It is evidence} however, that the majbrity ! . of the world's sheeppwners find that it is— that its use yields th§ most profitable results— or they wduld hot thus patronise it; . . . Upon these grounds Cooper's Dip is repsectf ully recommended to sheep owners the coming season. Its c're» dentials show that it will be to their interests to use it. ItisJFHE Dip for the show ring; for the freezing works, and for thb wool market.
