A Unanoisl aud an ailietia standpoinl.
Indeed, tbe acting of these young lad

management of Pint. Muttbews, being
practically tiee from tbe usual ama
teurish diffidence. The different parts
were well carried out and tbe lines,

sentonoes, were well learned. Mies
Rnbv Banister as the shrewish biide,
Miss Gladys Andre at tba grand lady

' "A Recent
U. S. Government Report
makes plain your need of a
NITED
STATE
CREAM SEPARATOR
With Guaranteed Non-rusting Skimming Device
u
The Scientific Staff of the
Dairy Division in the United
States Department of Agricul
ture recently conducted a series of
experiments to learn what effect, if
any, iron (rust) has on cream and
butter.
The tests definitely established
thefactthatevenminuteparticles
of iron (rust) caused certain undesir
able flavors and that in every in
. stance when butter was scored a few
days after the making, the samples
in which iron (rust) was present
scored lower than the butter made
from cream which contained no iron
(rust). .
In using the United States
Cream Separator with non-rusting
skimming sections of solid
nickel silver you avoid all risk of
cream and butter with an "off"
flavor.
The U.S. skimming sections are
positively guaranteed never to
rust. No other separator manufac
turer gives you a printed non-rusting
guarantee.
A demonstration gladly given
right at your home, without obligation.
