Victories for the Vermont Farm Machine Co

The successes of the United States
Cream Separator is source of pardonable
pride to the Vermont Farm Machine Com
pany.
On December 26 and q at the meeting
of the Granite State Dairymen's associa-
ton in Lancaster, n. H., the highest score,
81 3-4 points, was awarded Samuel Il.
Noyes of Colebrook, n. H., who is a user
of this separator. There were 164 entries
in all.
At the recent meeting of the Dairymen' S
association in Rutland, the showing was
very tattering indeed. There were II
entries Of butter, the highest score being
81 3-4 points, awarded the Jersey Hill
Creamery, Of Ryegate. Users of this sep
arator were awarded the gold medal, grand
sweepstakes, and creamery sweepstakes
There were 1s premiums in all, and ten o
these were won by users of the Uniteo
States cream separator. This showing j.
good enough for any machine.
One of the states prominent dairymer
who used a separator on trial found that
the milk Of eight cows Cone milking after
an open setting of 48 hours, was thor
oughly skinned and then run through the
separator and one-half pound Of butter
was then made from the cream extracted
by the separator. A matter Of $50 or 800
per annum from a dairy of eight cows
speaks for itself in favor Of the separator
over the open setting. Surely it is fact
worthy Of notice that our best farmers are
becoming convinced that the cream sepa-
rator, instead of being a luxury, is neces-
sitv.

Something to Think of.

DIR. LePlongeon, the eminent explorer
and arch@ologist, has spent II years in Cen
tral America and about the country OF fu-
catan. From his discoveries, in his estimate
everything points to the fact that there was
the cradle of the human race. There are
the most ancient ruins yet found, antedat-
ing the old pyramids many thousand years,
and also there is the most ancient language
known to man. Notably the Oldest Pyra-
mids were built of granite, but now they
are only heaps of sand. Cheops, sup.
posed to be the last one built, is now known
to be $500 years old, yet her walls show
little if any signs of decay. S. NJ. b.

The Gold Fields of the West

Are now attracting the attention of the
whole world, and the results of placer
and quartz mining are fully equal to
the finds of nuggets in the early Cali
fornia days.
Colorado, Montana, Idaho, Washing
ton and British Columbia vie with each
other as to the extraordinary induce
ments offered to prospectors, practical
miners and investors.
BY next spring the gold fever will
have taken possession of thousands OF
people, and the Western roads will
have all they can do to transport the
fortune hunters.
The Chicago, Milwaukee d st. Paul
ailway, and lis connecting lines, is the
best route TO all sections of the Fai
West. For further Information, address

Soap Root.
why NOT USE A PURE ARTICLE

Can you take the risk of using
toilet soap made from animal fat,
perhaps filled with poison, when
vegetable product can be had equally
as good or better, and at no higher
price? Thousands of people have
thus been inoculated with terrible
blood diseases through a mere
scratch or abrasion of the skin. No
article is so prolific of disease germs,
and almost all of the common skin
diseases are easily traceable to adul-
terated soaps. These dangers are
avoided by using Mexican Root
Soap.
Natures greatest remedy for
Cleaning and Healing and contains
wonderful Medicinal properties to

the alleviation and cure Of all cutane
Gus diseases.
