Business Notices* [MPOKTANT TO SHEEPOWNERS. DIPPING SEASON 1886. WHICH is the most efficient, most reliablo, and most economical SHEEP-' DIP? THOMAS' Carbolised Sheep - Dipping Composition Has invariably, when applied m accordance with the proprietors' instructions, proved to be theCHEAPEST 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 be superior to the eight other specifics then competing, including Cooper's, Little's, Tomlinaon and Hayward's (Glycerine), Hall's, Jeye's, Logan and Wileon's (vow Hatch's), MoDougall's, and Gillard's, but the report on the wool then dipped, made at the request of the H.B.P. and A. Association, by the well-known Wool-brokers m London, Messrs Helmuth Schwartze and Co., also placed THOMAS' DIP AT THE HEAD OF ALL OTHERS as regards the wool, as tho following extract from that report will show : — "At the conclusion of the Hawkes Bay trials, samples of the wool from the sheep dipped were forwarded by the Association to London for special examination and report, and the Wool. Valuer for Messrs Helmuth, Schwartze and Co., of that city gave as his award :— Thomas' — Little or no smell, free staple and sound ; good lustre ; soft feel. Coopbb's — Slight smell ; more yolk than m " others; fair lußtre ; sound staple. Little's — Smells strong ; staple strong ; rather dried up ; brownish cost. Hall's — Slight chemical smell ; staple quite sound ; no coagulation of grease; fair lustre. Tomlinbon and Hatwahd'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 and valuo — when brought into fair competition with other' curative agencies has never yet beon surpassed or equalled. . It is a cold water dip, easily dissolved, and tho cost of application scarcely exceeds one half-penny per sheep, whiUt a fair application rarely fails to add one penny per lb to the wool. Amongst numerous letters tho following are extracts : — From tho Manager of tho Hcaton Park Estate (tho property of the Trustees of the late Hon. W. B. Rhodes), near Wanganui. "Heaton Park, 2lßt Sept., 1885. " I havo dipped 20,000 sheep with Thomas' Dip, and have found it effectual m killing the ticks and lico, with which some of the sheep were very bad. The wool after dipping is m excellent condition, and free from stain, and there are fewor matted fleeces than over I have known m my flock. The bath is easily prepared, by first dissolving tho 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, " Robbet Wilson." "Inglowood, Flaxton, Oct. 13,1885. " Messrß Miles and Co., Christchurch. " Dear Sirs, — Having just hud all my sheep through tho yards (dipped on May 4th, 1885), I hare to express my satisfaction with Thomas' Dip. Thn wool is m nice order, and I havo not seen a tick or other panisito on any of tho sheep dipped, nor have I been able to see a tick on any lamb toiled, whose dam had been dipped.
