Next Door to Perfection 



POUR your milk into an I H C cream separator. 

 Out of the cream spout will come close to 9,999 parts 

 of cream for only one part that gfoes into the skim- 

 milk pail. That's marvelously close separation; it means every pos- 

 sible dollar of dairy profit from your cows. 



It takes an I H C sejiarator to do such efficient work. Every detail 

 has its use, every mechanical point its purpose. Shafts and spindles 

 are the strongest made for separators. Bearings all have phosphor 

 bronze bushings. Gears v^ork without back lash, and they are pro- 

 tected from dirt and grit. In short, everything in 



I H C Cream Separators 



Dairymaid, Bluebell, or Lily 



makes for great strength and durability. Perfect adjustment and bal- 

 ance mean smoothness and ease in operating, hence continued satisfac- 

 tion during long life. All parts are easily accessible for cleaning. 

 There are four convenient sizes of each style. 



Then if you have a one-horse power back-geared I H C engine to 

 complete your separator outfit, you will soon find that an indispen- 

 sable helper on the farm. It will run steadily and at the proper speed 

 to puuip water, run washing machine, churn, grindstone, etc. 



Study 1 H C separat(jr outfits at the local agent's. Catalogues 

 may be obtained from him, or, write to
