FATTENING LAMBS.
Seasonable Notes
The finishing off of his lambs for export is one of the most important items in the New Zealand lambraiser's year. He must have his lambs "prime" without■ being too heavy, and to ensure this the foed he provides for them must be of the most nutritious kind, and at tho same time he must see to it that they are enabled to make the best use of it. Tf affected by ticks or lice they will not "thrive, but to rid them of these pests isfeasy: a bath in Quibell's Liquid Dip (non-poisonous) will cleanse them thoroughly without giving tllsm a check in any way—a danger which is always present if tender lambs are dipped in a poisonous preparation. All lambs intended . for export should be dipped in Quibell's .Liquid when taken from their mothers, and flockmasters would be astonished at the improvement made in the ewos themselves if they are given a bath at thp same time.
