Also, the Acme creamer, with butter cooler attachment. It uses no ice, the 

 butter cooler being entirely surrounded by water except on top. The milk can be 

 kept in the coldest weather without freezing. It is a top skim, and therefore no 

 sediment is left in the cream, and it has two sets of cones or lids. This is an ad- 

 mirable apparatus. 



The Flint Cabinet Creamery Company, Flint, Mich., exhibited Wilson's Cabinet 

 Creamery. It has a narrow can with a large cooling surface, and a tin cover which 

 retains the condensed steam and prevents it from running back into the cream. 

 The water is introduced under the can, and ri.«es, stopping the bottom to the water 

 tank. It is cleaned without removing the cans, and the cans are skimmed without 

 removing them from the tank. Al.w, Wilson's Barrel churn. The pressure of the 

 cover is by a screw and lever, for which rea.son the cask will last longer. Also, the
