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 ceaslesi testing and experimenting, the really perfect CreanrSeparator 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.
