WHY?
Because there is no other windrnill outfit that will com
pare with the STAR. Not only will it furnish plenty of
pure water for domestic purposes, but it will maintain
a pressure for use in case of fire, thus lowering your in
surance rate.
This windmil outfit will pump plenty of
water for your stock and for sprinkling
purposes. Many farmers use them for
irrigating. Galvanized after making ev
ery part thoroughly coated.no part can
rust. Galvanized Bolts, Double nutted,
can't get loose and rattle. Ball bearings
in the turn-table. Turns freely in the
wind.
Ball Bearing thrust in the wheel, runs in
lightest wind. Least possible amount of
power absorbed by friction. Greatest
possible amount of power reserved to
perform the work to be done.
Weight Regulators-always the same. Do
not vary with age and temperature as
does a spring regulator,
All Star outfits should he equipped with Myer's

Drink Talk
There is hardly a spot inside of the
tropic zone where tea or coffee cannot
be grown, possibly barring the Sahara
Desert. So it is natural to suppose that
there are a hundred different qualities
of teas and coffees.
It is a matter of your personal taste
as to what suits you best. In Japan the
the natives, brew tea that Americans
would not care to drink you would
probably call it "vile stuff."
The way to find tea or coffee that is
just exactly what you like is to keep
trying different brands until you find
yours.
Our understanding of the tea and cof
fee situation has made it possible for us
to select a number of grades that pretty
nearly cover the whole scale of variation
in taste.
We can just about guarantee to give
you the finest "cup" you ever tasted if
you will sample a few of our brands.
