Hmotlg Our Patrons
A Remarkable List of De Laval
Separator Users.

In the De Laval advertisement in
this issue will be found a truly re-
markable list of some of the more
widely known of the nearly LOO, 600
users of De Laval cream separators,
and it would probably be difficult to
find any other article of which list
of patrons could be produced as re
preventative in so many spheres OF
business ard professional prominence
and containing the names of so many
men we'll known to the public at large.
While many of them are bankers and
the heads of great railroads and cor
porations, merchants, lawyers, editors,
physicians and even actors, they are
all dairy farmers as we'll, and 1T is
pleasing to those of us who are dairy
ing for a living TO have the fact thus
bought home to us that so many rep
resentative men who don't have to
practice dairylng for dollars and cents
results nevertheless find pleasure and
in many cases their chief relaxation
from the cares of their various voca
tions in the breeding of good COWS and
the production of pure dairy foods.
The De Laval Company claims, and
not without justification, that such
list of users as this is of important
significance to every prospective buyer
of cream separator because the fact OF
the use of De Laval machines by most
of these men reflects thousand
sources of authoritative information
and experience not possessed by the
ordinary purchaser, who not infre-
Quently buys separator simply be-
cause his local dealer happens to
handle that particular kind or the
claims made in some ''ad' or cata-
logue may appeal to him.
They make the point, too, that while
it is true that many of these men are
not dependent on profit from their
separators they want the best cream
and the best butter and the most of
it just the same. as we'll as the ma
chine which will wear best and give
the least trouble, and that they are
the kind of men who are able to ascer-
tain and command the best and be
content with nothing less, in cream
serarators as IN everything else.
There are doubtless prominent users
of other makes of sepsrators, but so
. far as we know this DE Laval list is
the most unique and widely represen-
tative that has ever been published of
serarators or any other implement,
and the DeLaVal Company is ce1 tain
ly Is to be compllmented upon it.

The Stino Of = Bee.

An eastern fable tells ot IL potentate
who demanded that there should be
brought to him the stings of a thou
sand bees killed because one of their
colony had dared commit iese majesty
by singing the hand of royalty. When
they were brought in tiny golden
thimble the king was so amazed to
find that a thousand OF the hypoder-
mic points made such a little mass
that he issued a manifesto to the eff
feet that thereafter no person within
the bounds Of the kingdom should
complain Rt the sting Of bee. The
lesson Of the fable Is that petty an
noyances hurt because they are exag-
gerated in the mind: that when they
are seen In their actual proportions
they are so slight as TO merit only
contempt. How much comfort would
come to the majority OF persons IL
they could but see the tiny size Of the
bee stings that lead them to acts of
petulance. words OF anger. expressions
OF reproach. The bee sting annoy
ances have caused lifelong breaches Of
friendship. They have broken up fam
lilies and caused anger and resentment
to take the place OF love and feaity.-
