Screw Worm and Blow Fly

, OtJDEN & Co.'s Cherokee L.Rament, the original
| disco, cry, and the only reliable article for the
immediate destruction of the Screp Worm and BioD
Fly 80
This Lpament has now been before the citizens Of
Texas for over three years, and has been thoroughly
tested as positive and sp:cdy cxterminator Of those
destructive yermn.
LoUpEy & Co. Justly claim the discovery of this
great remedy, and until the present year no other
Linamcnt was offered known for the relief OF the
Graziers of Texas but now the unprecedented popu-
larity of our Cherokee Lnament has inducedfor the
peeunaIy rewardthe propretors OF the various lmi-
nticns aoat to palm off their worthless articles upon
the unsuspecting, without regard to justice, or any
known merit in the nostrum offered.
We call upon all interested to
BEWARE OF ALL OTHER LINAMENTS
claiming to destroy the Screw Worm, and prevent the
Blow Fly as they are all mere limitations, covertly
to trife with the credulity of the people.
As designing persons have initiated our Linamont,
they will doubtless try to initiate ORIGINAL Snow
