Automatic
Carrier
To the Dairy Farmer: The DrewAutomatic Carrier cannot fail to ap
peal to you affording a splendid opportunity of improving your business
operations.
First— By saving time and labor, which means reducing cost of
production.
Second— By insuring cleanliness which means increased valued
your products and healthier live stock.
Third— By greatly enhancing the value of the stable manure,
through not allowing the liquid portion to be lost in wheeling or pitch
ing from one place to another.
These are a few of the advantages derived frem installing an Auto
matic Drew Carrier, but they are enough to show the business farmer
that it is one of the best paying investments he can make.
The following testimonials speak for themselves:

Gentlemen:— In reply to your enquiry will say that the Drew Carrier
is ALL RIGHT. No man with five cows can afford to do without one
as a labor saving device. There is nothing can be put in a barn that
will equal ;t. I would do without a hay fork sooner than a Drew Car
rier. A Drew Carrier is used 365 days in the year and a hay fork only
in haying time, and further the manure saved from 5 cows and 3 horses
over-the usual way will pay for the outfit in one year.
