THE IMPROVED
UNITED STATES SPECTATORS
THE UNITED STATES
ARE IN A CLASS BY THEMSELVES
The United States Use inventions of their own exclusively
The United States do not utilize any type of separator ever de-
veloped by their "Wouldbe Competitors"
These "wouId-be Compositions" claim the earth, but word
claims" do not give them the title.
These "WouIdbe Competitors" claim that DR.. De Laval was the
inventor of 1.-THE first practical continuous flow centrifugal Cream
No. 247yso4, ot. 4, 1881" This statement is not true a shown by
the records in the Patent Office. Messrs. Houston & Thomson
(who aherward became famous in the electrical line) were the first
to be awarded a patent n such an apparatus. Application filed
Oct. 29, 1877. Patent issued April 6, 1881, No. 239,659.
This Houston & Thomson Separator was also of the "Bevel
Gear" type and was for either hand or power, therefore the claim
These are the ockofGibraltarlik facts against which mere
"word claims" by WouId-be Competitors fade away like the mist
of night before the rays of the morning sun"
We could enumerate a lot of things these "WouIdbe competL
tors claim, that r not in accordance with the facts or the rec
morning sun" of truth, but this is sufficient on this point for the
present, we think, to convince all thoughtful readers that sword
claims" do not have any weight in face of the facts.
These anne "wouIdbe Competitors" claim their Separator
entitled to that word claim" IS the records show that the United
any National OF International Exposition.
In other advertisements they claim that "99h per cent. of all
expert creamery men, butter manufacturers, and real separator au-
have learned by experience that the DeLaval is the only separator
that will save all the cream all the time under all conditions"
Now every reader of intelligence knows that is another WORD
claim" and is not true, because a very large percentage OF the lead
ing breeders, separator authorities, creamerymen and dairymen,
use and recommend the United States Separator because 1T proved
in the great contest with the DeLaval and others, that 1t exceled
everything in fifty (5) consecutive runs lasting owe one month
on ten different breeds of COWS; also in every day use it has main
tanned it's superiority.
Please read the following letter and see for yourselves If this
looks Is though the 1924 per cent. word claim" is correct.
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, May 27, 1908.
In 1899 w introduced farm separators in our cream gathering
system. Although WI III within six miles of the DeLavai Separa-
tors main works where all of their Separators are made, our pat
rons, after thorough investigation, preferred and purchased the U.
s. separators. There are about three U. I. separators to every one
of the DeLavaI Separators used. Since w have started WI have
steadily Increased our output. We get good prices o. our putter'
and feel proud of the record.
LAGRANGE CREAMERY,
n. r. HOYT, President.
Just think of it, Three United States separators to every one
of the DeLaval right under the shadow of their factory. Why?
Because the United States is superior to all others in every feature
of separator practicabilty. 1t is made stronger, runs easier, wears
longer, skins closer.
