LINE AND SULPHUR DIP.

Some inquiry into the effectiveness
and effect Of the lime and sulphur dip
on sheep and their wool. where the
former are affected with scabies, de-
velops the fact that the Government
dip as recommended 10y DIR. Salmon OF
the Department of Agriculture Is IA
sure cure for scahies, II properly pre-
pared; but that il is ruinous on the
wool when sheep are dipped shortly
before shearing. The proprietor OF
one OF the Minneapolis wool buying es.
adjustments, the Northwestern Fur
and Hide Company, says that lime and
sulphur wool brought six cents below
market price and that IL was harsh
and inferior while the wool OF sheep
subjected 10 other dips was not deter
iorated by the process. The sheepmen
OF Montana make the same statement
in effect. but say that lime and sulphur
should be used only Immediately fol-
lowing shearing, after any cuts made
by the shears have healed up, and be-
fore the wool has grown out. II the
scabies require dipping during the
growth OF the wool, other dips than
the lime mixture should be used. With
the wool short we are informed that
the lime and sulphur dip is very
cheap, effective and satisfactory rem
edy for scab; the formula for making,
however, must be nicely observed. The
sheep are swum the length OF n trough
full of the mixture, requiring three
minutes, ana are thrice entirely sub
merged as they pass along. A second
dipping is given within ten days TO
destroy any remaining vestiges OF tho
unless they are dipped too soon fol-
lowing shearlny IT is best 20 use other
dips, as they DO not hurt the wool.
and are equally effective IN scabies
