IRON CLAD MILK CAN.-Among the
last improvements for dairymen is the
iron clad milk can, manufactured in New
York by a company respectfully organized
for the pan. The reasons why it is supe-
rior to all other cans now in use are!
1st. They are provided with a solid
metallic bottom and hoop combined, COM
posed of wrought iron, stamped and
timed.
Cd. The cover Is stamped from one
piece of iron, thereby doing away with
all seams, which make it the most
durable of any cover ever made, and az
the came time easy to clean.
Sd. The handles are mad" OF the best
wrought and maleahle iron,tinned which
makes them proof against breaking under
any circumstances.
4th. The hoops are swedged iron, which
makes them far superior 10 tin, as they
are more durable, and at The same time
support the cans.
9Th. This can has great advantages
over all others by the bottom being ele-
waited from the floor by rests, which gives
a free cfrcu'aticn under the can while
being conveyed to the factory, and also
when used as & cooler, and at the same
time protects the bottom from All M
necessary wear.
The cover is stamped from piece, there
are no seams to come apart or collect i'm
pure matter Of any kind, aud it will last
much longer with one-fourth the trouble
of cleansing than tbs cid style, because
the less seams you get in can the longer
it will last. This can is worthy the at
tertjon OF all dairymen, and should at
tract the especial notice of the Vermont
Dairymen's Association now in session at
Burlington. These cans With Eyen =
strainer attachment, make the most per-
feet impienent for the farmers use now

of their simp licity, cleanliness and dura-
bility, one of these cans with attachments
