HOW TO GET OFF AN ADDITIONAL BATCH OF FAT ' LAMBS IN THE SEASON.

The cultivation of a j"U>e crop costs money, therefore it -s essential that tlio grower make the most of it. If an additional batch of fat lambs can bo got oil' in file season u distinct gain has been scored —a gain which pays all working expenses entailed in the production of the crop, land something more. To ensure this, see that your lambs* got* •the benefit of every ounce of feed they consume. tree them from ticks and lice before putting them on the rape, and you can turn .them off fat weeks before your neiguuor who attempts to “finish” off his stock in ail undipped state. For freeing young lambs of ticks and lice without retarding their progress, QuibeU’s Liquid Xon-pqi-sononis Dip has no equal. To dip your iambs in this valuable preparation costs one-fifteentli part: of a penny per head, and the enhanced value of your limbs, not to speak of tile value of the feed you save- as the result of getting them “finished” quickly, will he at least Is to Is Cd per head. Oil 1000 lambs this means from £SO to £75 of a gain. Oan you afford to throw away this •money for the sake of saving flet'6 than £2 in dip? Never use a _ poisonous, dip for lambs going on to feed: it may check their growth seriously. All you want is to keep them clean till they are fat. For autumn dipping of sheep and lambs that you intend to keep throughout the wi liter use Quibeil’s “Improved” Powder Dip. It destroys all parasites and pre-' vents rainfestatlon, besides giving a beautiful lustre to the wool, which always means more competition at the sales. Gisborne racing club, SUMMER MEETING.
