WHAT'S UNDER THE PAINT ON
THE BUGGY YOU HAVE?
Are there cracks in the sides that hove been puttied up in order to make you think you are getting your
money's worth? Are there knots and defective blotches in every part under the paint? If your buggy
is a Staver, you oould scrape off every particle of paint and more than that, take every portion of the
body and examine it thoroughly and you could not say that the buggy is not what it is represented to
be--the best in the buggy line. The Staver buggy is in a distinctive class of its own. The manufactur
ers do not wait until some other firm has put out an improvement and then endeavor to copy that im-
provement. They are generally the first to add a new style to their line. When you buy a Staver, you
do not get a copy, you get the original. Staver gears are made of the best air dried seasoned hickory.
Reaches are ironed on both sides full length. Staver springs are of the best quality oil tempered graded
steel and are thoroughly tested before sent out. Woodwork is primed with lead and oil and rubbed In
the wood by hand, giving It a durable, hanusome fiinish. -:- -:- -:- -:- -:- -:- -:- -:- -:- -:-

MAKING
CREAM
SEPARATOR
HISTORY
The year 1908 will mark an important period in centrifugal
Cream Separators. Probably never again will such a large num
ber of valuable Seperator improvements be brought forth as are
now shown , in the new improved 1908 De Laval machines.
After thirty years of ceasless testing and experimenting, the
really perfect Cream Separator has at last been produced in the
New De Laval. Nothing anywhere near like it has ever been
made before and all who have seen and examined it marvel at the
great degree perfection attained in every feature of the machine
from the supply can to the base. Although the improved De
Laval has only recently been placed on the market it is already
SWEEPING ALL COMPETITION ASIDE and experienced
buyers everywhere are saying of it "YOU DON'T CLAIM
NEARLY ENOUGH." The many new De Laval improvements
are of almost equal importance with the invention of the separa
tor itself and must be seen to be fully appreciated. To this end
you may have a free demonstration of the machine in your
own home for the asking.
Mr. W. P Kirchem, the agent for Oregon City, has arranged
with FRANK BUSCH to have one of the machines in his store
where the merits can be fully examined and catalogues be ob
tained. Call at
