GOOD NEWS .' GOOD NEWS ! ! NO MORE FOOT EOT. GRAHAM & CO.'S Permanent Cure forFootrot (PATENTED). TO SHEEPOWNERS. NOW tho Wool Market is firmer, and prices aro ruling higher every day, SAVE YOUR SHEEP that would othorwi>o be worthies?, at a cost of ONE HALFPENNY per HEAD. It has often been romarked, and is undoubtedly true, that the sheepowners' worst enemy is FOOTROT. Its effects nro soon shown m tbo declining condition of tho cheep and its wool, and although lately many scientific opinions have been expressed with regard to it m the public Press, there is no doubt that tho so-called remedies there suggested hovo all been tried m these colonies, ending only m disappointment and failure, the result being that m using arsenic, vitriol, carbolic acid, and other things that aro recommended, thoy have added fuel to tho Cro m burning the Bheeps' I feet altogether, and m most instances making tlicm worse than beforo. With all deference to tho opinions of these scientific men, our thirty years' practical (not theoretical) experience of sheep, nnd study of this question, has led us to come to tho conclusion that tho CAUSKS and NATURE of this disease are not understood, and up to the present timo it haa always been wrongly treated. Wo invito the publio to read the following testimonial, which shows that wo CAN CURE FOOTROT for OVER TWELVE MONTHS, and this m a case where all other meanß had beon tried ond failed : — " Flaiton, June 28th, 1886. "Messrs W. Graham and Co., Southbrook. " Dear Sire, — We have pleasure m stating thafc tho sheep you dressed for us m May 1.585, OVER TWELVE MONTHS AGO, ,havo remained PERFECTLY SOUND on their feet ever since, nnd are etill running on the SAME MARSHY SWAMP without Bhowing any Bi'gns of FOOTROT.— Yours faithfully, Wallacb Bbos." We can also bring PROOF that we have not failed m any eingle instanco to effect a COMPLETE CDRE, even m the worst cases, where numbers of sheep have DIED EVERY YEAR. Our chief difficulty is to CONVINCE the public that this is not ono of the many spurious patent medicines wbich have from time to time been foisted upon them, but we trust the following disinterested testimonial to our Agents will set them right : — " Leslie Hills, Culverden, " Juno 17th, 1886. "Messrs Matson, Buss and Co., Rangiora. " Dear Sirs, — I notico by tho Standard that Graham and Co. are now offering their euro for footrot for sale to the pu&lic. I have always been very sceptical as to tbe results of theso patent cures for diseases m sheop, of whioh we havo had so many offered us of late. I am quite satisfied that if Graham and Co. will only sell us tho quality of stuff as ho used himself when working on footrot slieep m this district, there will bo no necossity for Graham and Co. to go to Kimberley for somo years. I have soen a good deal of tho Montrose rams these few yeara; thoy wero TERRIBLY BAD with footrot, and as Graham cured them with two dressings, I am NOW SATISFIED that a CURE for footrot HAS BEEN FOUND. I have never had any footrot on this property till the other clay a few footrot slieep came m a mob of crossbreds from turnips. Please send mo at onre a gallon of Graham and Co.'s Patent, to tho caro of D , and oblige. — Yours faithfully, Duncan Ruthebpobd."
