We are doing everything poss ible to assist our patrons to pro duce cream of the finest quality, and to this end we sell separators on easy payments that we have found by experience will not leave any butter fat in the skim milk. . All successful dairymen recog nize the absolute necessity of owning his own separator and given herewith are some of the reasons that emphasize the nec essity. In the first place you sell cream only to the creamery and the creamery has only empty cans to return to you. This is a great ad vantage, for besides decreasing the bulk of the shipment it as sures the receipt of the cream in far better condition as it is the skim milk and not the cream that sours quickly. Pure cream can be shipped a long distance and arrive at its destination in the best condition, provided reasonable care is taken. The skim milk which you feed to your young stock will be warm and from your own cows, as you separate the cream from the milk directly after milking. A separator is an actual neces sity for profitable dairying, and if you do not own one now, we would like an opportunity of proving by figures that you are losing money every day that a separator will save. Think it over. Cream Buyer. Real Estate For Sale. 10 acres inside city limits of Monmouth. Fine soil and splen did improvements.
