The year 1908 will mark an important period in centrifugal Cream Separators. Prohahly 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. Nothihg anywhere near like it has ever been made before and all who have seen ami 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 senara- 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. V. P Kirchem, the agent for Oregon City, has arranged with FRANK BUSCH to have one of the machines in'Tfis store where the merits can be fully examined and catalogues be ob tained.
