CAUTION TO STOCK RAISERS
SCREW W0RM & BLOW FLY.
Loudon & Co's
Cherok ee Liniment.
fpHE original discovery and the only reli-
X able article for the immediate destruc-
tion of the Screw Worm and Blow Fly.
This Linimeut has now been before the
citizens of Texas for over three years, and
has been thoroughly tested as a positive
and speedy exterminator of those destruct-
ive vermin.
Louden & Co. justly claim the discovery
of this great remedy, and until the present
year nootlier Liniment was offered or Known
for the relief of the Graziers of Texas; but
now, the unprecedented popularity of our
Cherokee Liniment has induced—tue pecu-
niary reward—the proprietors of the various
imitations afloat, topalm off their worthless
articles upon the unsuspecting, without re-
gard to justice, or any known merit in the
nostrum offered.
We cull upon all interested to
BE WA RE of all other Liniments
claiming to destroy the Screw Worm nnd
prevent the attack of the Blow Fly, as they
ure nil imitations, covertly to trifle with the
credulity of the people.
as designing persous have imitated our
Liniment, they will doubtless try to imitate
our original Show bill and oullock, the bet-
ter to cover their deception, we refer to
the following well known gentlemen in
Texas—many others might be named—who
will vouch for tho signal efficacy of our
Liniment, to nit:—nr w nenry Elliot nnd
