THOMAS' Carbolised Sheep - Dipping Composition Has invariably, when applied m accordance with the proprietors' instructions, proved to be the CHEAPEST and MOST EFFICIENT DIP for either Longwool, Crossbred, or Merino Sheep. THOMAS' DIP was not only placed first at the Hawkes Bay competition m 1883, being pronounced by the Special Committee to bo superior to the eight other specifics then competing, including Cooper's, Little's, Tomlinson and Hayward's (Glycerine), Hall's, Jeye's, Logan and Wilson's (vow Hatch's), McDougaTl's, and Gill&rd'a, but tho report on tho wool then dipped, made at the request of tho H.B.P. and A. Association, by the welMinown Wool-brokers m London, Messrs Helmnth Schwartzo and Co., also placed THOMAS' DIP AT THE HEAD OF ALL OTHERS as regards tho wool, as the following extract from that report will show : — "At the conclusion of the Hawkes Bay trials, samples of tho wool from tho sheep dipped were forwarded by the Association to tondon for special examination and report, and tho Wool Valuer for Messrs Helmuth, Schwartzo and Co., of that city gave as his award : — Thomas' — Little or no smell, free staplo and eound ; good lustre ; soft feel. Coopeb's — Slight smell ; more yolk than m others ; fair lustre ; sound staplo. Little's — Smells strong ; staplo strong ; rather dried up ; brownish east. Hall's — Slight chemical smell j staple quite sound ; no coagulation of greaso; fairluatre. ToiiLiNSON and Haywabd's— Sour smell | dried up appearance ; and dull look ; rather tender." Thomas' Carbolised Sheep Dip — for many years favourably known m Tasmania and Victoria as " Hood's Specific," and now greatly improved m manufacture *nd value — when brought into fair competition with other curative agencies has never yet been surpassed or equalled. It is a cold water dip, easily dissolved, and the cost of application scarcely exceeds one half-penny per sheep, whilst a fair application rarely fails to add one penny per lb to the wool. Amongst numerous letters tho following are extracts :— From the Manager of tho Heaton Park Estate (the property of the Trustees of the late Hon. W. B. Rhodes), near Wanganui. " Heaton Park, 21st Sept., 1885. " I have dipped 20,000 sheep with Thomas' Dip, and have found it effectual m killing the ticks and lice, with which somo of tho sheep were very bad. The wool after dipping is m excellent condition, and free from stain, and there are fewer matted fleeces thau ever I have known m my flock. The bath is easily prepared, by first dissolving the dip m hot water, after which it easily assimilates with cold water. It is one of the cheapest and best dips I have used, m an experience of thirty years. " I am, &c, "Robbbt Wilson." " Inglewood, Flaxton, Oct. 13, 1885. " Messrs Miles and Co., Christchurch. " Dear Sirs, — Having just bad all my sheep through the yards (dipped on May 4th, 1885), I have to express my satisfaction with Thomas' Dip. The wool is m nice order, and I have not seen a tick or other parasite on any of the sheep dipped, nor have I been able to see a tick on any lamb tailed, whose dam had been dipped.
