CREAM SEPARATORS
"STOP!" and think before you buy a sep
arator. There are many things to be con
sidered in the purchase of a cream sepaiator.
You want the lightest running machine on the
market. You want the machine that is the
easiest to wash and keep clean, you also want
the machine that will produce all the butter fat

that you wont be continually paying for repairs.
Now the famous Empire Separator is the ma
chine you want as it has all these advantages
over every other machine on the market.
Any company can make claims but let us
show you the Separator that makes good

If anybody would make me the great

coaches, and beautiful clothes and
hundreds of servants, on condition that I

Great interest is shown in taking timber

Those foreign anarchists, or American
anarchists, if there be such, must rem
ember that in this land of comparative
liberty there is no license for lawlessness
and although we have free speech and a
free press we draw the line at anarchy
because the people of the United States
believe in law and order. We allow
everyone to speak his mind, if he does
not incite a disturbar.ee of the peace of
the community. Our socialists, it is truf.
preach the overthrow of the present
methods of government, but they aim to
do so at least in their open " declarations
by the rule of the mapr.ty and under the
guise of law. There is a vast differencn
between liberty and license and to abuse
the right of free speech so that what is
said would incite a breach of the peace
is a crime and the perpetrator is liable
to punishment according to the law of the
several states. Democrat
