DAlRYMEN OF WINDHAM COUNTY
AND VICINITY
Before You Buy See and Try a
[IazS!ZII
SEPARATE

is THERE ANY DOUBT IN YOUR
MIND as to which cream separator will
give you the most satisfactory service
and be the most economical for you to
buy?
Here is a proposition that should Interest
you.
Write me to bring a DE LAVAL out
to your house and set 1t up for you. Try
out any other SEPARATOR you wish along
SIDE 1t. Give them both a fair. honest
trial. Then buy the machine that
Skins the cleanest, turns the easiest; Is
best constructed, Is easiest to wash.
If there is any doubt in your mind
when you make this test as to the COM
parative Swimming of the two machines.
take a sample of skim milk from each
separator and send it to your state ex-
pertinent station. They will tell you
which sample contains the most butter
fat. Thousands and thousands of DE
LAVAL SEPARATORS are sold every
year on just such tests.
We don't hesitate to ask you to make
such a test because we know the DE
LAVAL will skim cleaner and give you
better service than any machine on the
market. That's why we are perfectly
willing to let you try it out alongside
or any "would-be" competing machine
ever built. Our willingness to have YOU
make such a test should mean more to
you than volumes of printed claims.
Give your cows a square deal. Be fair
to yourself. If there is ony one farm
machine that should be of the best pos
sible construction it is the cream separa-
tor. 1t is used oftener than any piece
OF farm machinery-730 times a year
and the very best machine you can buy
will be far the cheapest in the end. You
always heard the DE LAVAL
spoken of as a high grade machine. All
LAVAL users are DE LAVAL
boosters" because it always ''makes
9S per cent of the worlds
use DE LAVAL CREAM SEPARATORS.
We take old and inferior separators
IN trade and give plenty of time to pay,
should you buy. Catalogues and all in
free.
