GOOD NEWS ! GOOD NEWS ! ! NO MORE FOOT ROT. GRAHAM & CO.'S Permanent Cure for Footrot (PATENTED). TO SHEEPOWNERS. NOW the Wool Market is firmer, and prices are ruling higher every day, SAVE YOUR SHEEP that would otherwise bo worthless, at a coat of ONE HALFPENNY per HEAD. It has often been remarked, and is undoubtedly true, thnt the Bheepowners' worst enemy is FOOTROT. Its effects are soon shown m the declining condition of the sheep and its wool, and although lately many scientific opinions have been expressed with regard to it m tho public Presa, there is no doubt that the so-called remedies thero suggested have 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 are recommended, they have added fuel to the fire m burning the cheeps' feet altogether, and m most instances making them worse than before. With all deference to the opinions of these scientific men, our thirty years' practical (not theoretical) experience of sheep, and study of this question, bas led us to come to the conclusion that the CAUSES and NATURE of this disease are not understood, and up to the present time it has always been wrongly treated. We invite the public to read the following testimonial, which shows that we CAN CURE FOOTROT for OVER TWELVE MONTHS, and this m a case whore all other means had been tried and failed : — " Flaxton, June 28th, 1886. "Messrs W. Graham and Co., Southbrook. " Dear Sirs, — We have pleasure m stating that tho Bheep you dressed for us m May 1885, OVER TWELVE MONTHS AGO, have remained PERFECTLY SOUND on their feet ever since, and are still running on the SAME MARSHY SWAMP without showing any signs of FOOTROT.— Youre faithfully, Wallace Bros." We can also bring PROOF that wo have not failed m any singlo instance to effect a COMPLETE CURE, 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 one of the many spurious patent mediiines which have from time to time been foisted upon them, but we trust the following disinterested testimonial to our Agents will 6et them right : — " Leslie Hills, Culverden, " June 17th, 1886. " Messrs Matson, Buss and Co., Rangiora. "Dear Sirs, — I notice by tho Standard that Graham and Co. are now offering theii cure for footrot for ealo to the public. ] have always been very sceptical aa to the re suits of these patent cures for diseases ir Bheep, of which we havo had bo many offeree us of late. I am quite satisfied that il Graham and Co. will only sell us the quality of stuff as he used himself when working or footrot sheep m this district, there will bo nc necessity for Graham and Co. to go tc Kimberley for Bomo years. I have seen n good deal of tho Montroso rams these few years; they were 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 hnd any footrot on this property till tho othor day a few footrot sheen came m a mob of crossbreds from turnips. Please send mo at once a gallon of Graham and Co.'b Patent, to the care of D , and oblige. — Yours faithfully. Duncan Rtjthebpobd." Wo can assure tho public that we havo only one standard for our Preparation, and that is the BEST. It is carefully manufactured from the best ingredients obtainable, and we aro determined to maintain its present popularity. Our terms are CASH — NO CERE NO PAY. Price, 10s per gallon (sufficient to dress about 250 sheep). We GUARANTEE to keep largo stations entirely FREE from FOOTROT on the most reasonable annual terms. We aro open to PURCHASE Bheep afflicted with footrot, NO MATTER HOW BAD, thereforo do not havo them destroyed, or allow them to die.
