are talking about when we say that
Weston can boast of aa handsome a

The World's Closest Slrimmer
The U. S. not only won the World' Record in the greatest el
all separator contests, but has continuously retained and strength
ened this wonderful record at all important International and State
events from the beginning of this century, in the Agricultural
Colleges and in actual ever day work right on the farm tinder all
conditions.
In competition the United States has been able to prove that
it can always skim closer than any other cream separator,
mainly because it is the only well-known separator that is built
to skim according to Nature's laws; cream from the top, mule
from the bottom therefore, no conflicting bowl currents. Aa
yet we have never heard of anyone who has improved on Nature.
Have you?
At "finish of the run" do you know that most cream separa
tors lose considerable cream? - The U. S. never does, for it flushes
perfectly clean. The vertically arranged skimmer and
open center of the bowl render it impossible for creaa.
to lodge in the bowL
We shall appreciate further chance to prove these
facta to your satisfaction.
