PAUPERS ON THE FARM.

Why keep an army of paupers? Ticks and Lice are 1 padpert— -and fat ones at that. You cannot grdvif 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 fleeces. Coopers Dip was invented sixtyfive years ago especially to accomplish these purposes. That it has well succeeded, is proved by very remarkable facts, which admit of no comparison. It would be invidious, and impracticable, 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. i . . As an instance, take tbat great sheep gathering of the world, name* ly, the Royal Agricultural Show of England. Tie 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 Isles, where all the leading dips of tbe world are rhanufactured and pushed for alll they are worth. ' . Please take ano thei" instance. Tasmanian flocks are perhaps the highest - priced and finest- woolled sheep in the world. ActiPrding to a census taken there, 'five-Sixths of the leading breeders use ' 'Cooper. " If individual instances were quoted, here would be found a proof of the superior merits of "Cooler." The Belie Vue Jflodk is) his.6*ip. Probably no Merino flock in lhe WpHd has secured so many princely., prices as Belle Vue sheep. "Pfc.-Md-._t" was a Belle ,Vue sheep, and teailSed 1600 guineas. And it wa_ dhly <thq other day that the manager Of tniS classic flock told the writer .hat bf all the dips that had been vied Pb Belle Vue, Cooper's had given tha greatest satisfaction, and ' nj&body need now try to persuade him to u9i any other dip. t . .. ■' Another prominent , Tagmabiab breeder was, however, last seaSoh diverted __oiii "tJooper" by, atety ments that a certain otlter dipping powder, "Whilst being the same aa 'Cooper's' was more finely prepared." But tbis gentleman has ile* cently signified his intention to rectum to the use of "Cooper" in future. .11 In every wool-growing country In tho .world, Cobpef*H Dip occupies. . similar position. King Edward, by Royal Warrant, recently appointed the proprietors of Cooper's Dip, fiheep Dip Manufacturers to His Majesty, and by Royal v Decree "Cooper" has been officially recommended, on account of its superior merits, for use upon the flocks of the Spanish nation. ' tfhe merits of Cooper's Dip aire not only recognised by great tlheei.--breedeifS, but by tbe rank and file bf the sheepowners of the world, for the anhUal sales' of "Cooper" suffice to dip over 2_o millions, of sheep;, All, through the beriod of sixty-five years it nas thus constantly and Steadily increased in popularity and esteem. Tbis acceptance throughout the pastoral wdrld may not, perhaps, justify the assumption that Cooper's is the best sheep dip. It is evidence, however, that the majority of the wbrld's sheepowners find that it is — that its use yields the most profitable results— oi? they would not thus patronise it. Upon these glrounds Cooper's Dip is repsectf ully recommended to sheep owners the comibg season. Its credentials show that it will be to their interests tb use it. It is THE Dip for the show ring, for the freezing works, and fdr the wool market.
