Sih, — F-ir the benefit of your corveapondent " B'anncr," anrl those who are interested m eheop breeding, I eend you what I have found to hn tho beet cure for lung worm, better known as bronchial worm, m ohepp and lambs. Tbo following it a safe and effectual remedy fir tho dieaaee : — A. doße for a sheep jor lamb four months old — Talse one dessert spoonful of turpentine and mil well with four of milk, new milk preferred, utiing judgment iiccording to the etnge of the ilißease and conf titution of the sheep to be treated. I havo used the t.b)ve remedy m my flock for the lssl twelve months, and I am glad to nay with success. It may not be generally known that all sheep are subiect to the tlisenßP, acd nt all times of the yenr; nevertheless it ia to. It is a mistake to treat the nholo floo'f, whether tbey want it or not. A man accustomed to the disease can piok oat every ebcop affected, thus saving time and c:cpenee. Before dosing cheep, if it is not convenient lo bring them into tho yard off their camp early m the morning, they should utand m the yard two hours before starting on nheui, aad reinnin m the yard one hour after llnisbing, without food. Two smart men can : IMt through übout 500 m a day. In dosing shcop or lambs that are very wenk and have ' got the blick scour, from one-third to two- i thirds of a doan, given at 9bortor intevals, will be euflioiont;. '. I will be glad to give your readers, any information I poßße3s at any time. : I am, &c., B. Tnaw. < Peel Forest, 18th Peb. <
