All thesofeatures on tho Sharpless
Tubular Cream Separator commend It
to tho thoughtful man who buys a

cases run. Tho cut abovo shows tho
Sharpless as you find It. Milk can
oasy of'roach, only waist high, and tho
separator bowl only ono plcco in It,
against from 10 to' 30 In most othor3.
Tho cleaning of tho bowls In other
machlnos would drive most any wo
man crazy, trying to clean thoroughly
tho Bmall bowlB or Jagged points.
Tho Sharpless bowl Is hollow and
smooth, and thoy enn be cleaned in
stantly. The gears run In oil and aro en
closed, so that.'thoro Is absolutely no
danger, as In many other machines.
Tho separator season will soon bo
