butor of Hinman Milking Machines
in the states of Ohio and Michigan
was at once happy and busy man
last Friday; the occasion was a con-
vention of the salesmen and dealers
who are working under Mr.. Myers
direction and supervision and who in
these days of shortage of farm labor
land under production of food essen
tials are doing a real missionary
work among the dairymen of these
two states, making it possible for
them to overcome the obstacles aris-i
ing from present economic and indus
trial conditions and produce more of
that one food product which is said
to contain all of the food elements

hunger of the people of this and

social, political, domestic foreign and
religious why every man who owns
cows should have Hinman Milking
machine and use it. at least twice
daily. That is why the convention
