Because not "Disc" Type.
When you buy the {" United State"
you get q Cream Separator with
modern improvements. Separators
Of the disc type were originated
many years ago. No recent i'm
provements of importance have
been made on them.
Because Latest Patents.
u. S. Separators are manufactured
under the most recent patents on
separators that are effective. All
basic disc" separator patents are
old and have expired. This
accounts for the unrestricted use of
this type by many manufacturers.
Because of Vertical Blade
System "
The vertical blade" skimming de-
vice and "disc" skimning device
are the two systems mostly used in
cream separators. The vertical
blade system, as used IN U. 5.
Separators, completely overcomes
the defects found in disc bowls.
The vertical blade is the modern
system, and fully protected by
patents.
Because no Central Core in
Bowl.
The U. S. bowl has an spen center,
without cumbersome central core,
split wing, or disc, on, tor between
which cream lodges. q. s. bowls
flush perfectly.

A MODERN
Not a disc" Separator

MODERN-Because Uses Bowl Chamber
Liner.
The United States Cream Separator
is the first to adopt this liner. 1t
makes the separator much easier
cleaned, and is the only way tc
keep it strictly sanitary. 1t has the
approval of the Board Of Health.
MODERN Because of Nickel Silver.
The use of Nicke-Silver in the u.
S. skimming device makes for easy
cleaning, and does away with rust,
thereby meeting the requirements
of sanitary laws. Steel discs rust
badly and contaminate milk and
cream, and are hard to keep clean.
MODERN-Because Mechanically Washed,
Sterilized and Dried.
The u S. is the only separator adj
apted to mechanical washing. This
process also sterilizes and dries the
bowl. mechanical washer furn-
ished free with every U. S. Separa-
tor.
MODERN-Because Skins Natures Way.
The u. S. is the only well known
bowl that skins natures way
cream to top, skim milk to bottom.
We haven't known of anyone inn
proving on nature. Have you?
MODERN Because the u. S. is seIf-drain-
ing,

Panama Canal in Bad Shape

In view of the bad state of the
Panama Canal, Gen. Goethals will
remain in charge indefinitely, and
his resignation has been withdrawn.
Ever since the Canal opened, one
year ago. there have been landslides
almost daily in some part of the great
cut. High power dredges have been
working twenty-five hours in every
twenty-four, Sundays included, to
keep the channel clear. After all
this heavy labor the Canal is now
closed for weeks to come. The
earth slides into the Canal faster than
it can be taken out.
Vessels have started to go around
South America by way of Cape Horn
or Strait of Magellan, their COM
manders having become weary of
waiting for the Canal to open.

country the French have lost some

with no signal reverse. The British
maintained their positions fairly
well in the region of HalIuch and Loos,
where the fighting continues to be

The British have carried their SUBJ

and in the last ten days have sunk,

probably in the Gulf of Riga. where
they are supplied by the Russians.

BOOKING AGENTS ARE HIT BY
ACTORS STORY

Stage life is not the grand sweet
dream little Miss Matinee Girl pic
lures it. Everybody knows this by
the time they get out of their teens.
But perhaps few knew the graft con-
nected with the stage.
Every night there are in Chicago
vaudeville houses acts that are re-
ceiVing but one to two dollars per-
son. That does not much resemble
the fabulous sums we have heard
quoted as salaries of even the small,
time" headliners. Also there exists
among Chicago vaudeville houses a
system which robs actors OF their
money.
Tonight there will be good actors
doing turns in pretentious variety
houses outside the loop for $1.50.
That is less than half of what a union
hodcarrier gets for eight hours work.
But the actor is not free of the graft
when playing in the loop. The one
who plays down town probably re-
ceives a good salary for his work. It
is he who is the prey of system
which gets too performers for from
10 to rs per cent of their salary.
To show how the vampire system
sometimes works, an experience of a
vaudeville star, Dr. Royal Raceford,
will be told.
DR.. Raceford, an English doctor of
medicine, made some discoveries
about the X-ray, wireless telegraphy
and electrical phenomena. An Eng
fish music hall circuit prevailed upon
him to demonstrate his discoveries on
the stage. He did so after investing
$4,000 in stage apparatus and train
ing nine men for the act. After a
successful tour of the British Isles he
came to America with his company.
One of DR.. Raceford's last engage
ments was at the Virginia theater,
500 W. Madison, for SIS for three
nights Less legitimate commission,

to sign for it before he gave me the
envelope. refused. On apening the
envelope found not only DuVries'
per cent missing, but an additional
5 per cent from the salary.
Believing the theater and DuVries
were working in cahoots l had Du-
Vries up before Labor Commissioner
Knight and his 5 per cent was refund

Some actors claim they are soak
ed as much as IS per cent of their sal
airy for their booking. Most stars
have managers OF personal booking
representatives Theh manager sell
dom goes to a big circuit to book his
client. He goes to one of the sub
agents, according to some of the
actors. The sub-agent will book with
another sub-agent, the second agent
viii book into some big agency and
the big agency will place the act in
the theaters. Each agency, they
claim; gets its commission; so does
the manager. Often there are COM
missions to be paid.
J.E. Smith, organizer of the actors
union, now in Chicago, says the
above is putting it mildly that often
theh booking agencies, working eth
er in collision with the houses or in
dependently, gets rs per cent of the
performers salary. The circuits
often will not deal directly with an
actor, they make him come up
through the other agencies.
Smith tells of another game. Chi
cago agents he claims will book good
acts at theaters for no salary by CIV
ing hopes of future big bookings.
Such agents mostly own or are
owned by the theaters.

What Matters 1t?

What matters it that all the skies
were dark,
And black the night, and tense?
With morning came the singing of
the lark
And joy for recompense!
What matters it that ever, day by
day,
Up rugged slopes we fare?
Do not loves roses blossom by the
And sweeten all the air?
Lies pathway is a toilsome one, I
know,
Thick-streWn with many a thorn;
But oh, the joyance of the noontide
glow
And rosy smile of morn!
Full oft the footsteps falter in the
road
And slacken near the goal,
But one clear bird song seems to lift
the head
And cheers the fainting soul.
And SO what boots it though the
skies
And black the night and tense,
Since morning brings the singing of
the lark
And joy for recompense?
One day of golden summe amply
pays
For winters storm and sting;
One brief hour of pleasure we'll out
weighs
Long weeks of sorrowing!
Richard Braunstein, in June Farm
and Home.
