MCD0UGAlLS' SHEEP DIP,

McDougalls' on-polsonous sheep dip and
cattle dressing, scab specific and insect eX-
terminator on sheep, cattle, horses, dogs,
poultry, etc, has been used with great success
in this county Tor several years. 1t instantly
Xtermtnates all ticks, lice and maggots; is
the only true specific for scab, and finely
stimulates the growth OF the fleece, making
its use very profitable. When used at a
special strength it also waterproofs the fleeces,
thus affording the animals great protection
from cold and wet. In the United States,
Great Britain and many places abroad it is
now generally adopted-having to a large
extent displaced the use OF tobacco, arsenic,
lime and sulphur, and poisonous mixtures.
1t has important advantages over such dress
ings, and is more certain in its action. For
