^fTHE COOLEY CREAMER 



Raises all the cream between the milkings. Saves two-thirds the labor. 

 Increases yield of butter. Improves the quality. Quadruples the value 

 of skim milk. Will pay for itself twice or more every season. The 

 Cooley System is the only uniform dairy method in existence. Requires 

 no spring house, or milk room. May be placed in a shed, cellar, or any 

 place that cold water is handy. 



The Best Hired Girl. 



In the fall of 187'J I bought a Cooley Creamer. I liave used it ever since with entire 

 satisfaclion. It makes more butter, of better quality, without ice, and half the labor, than 

 the old process. A lady friend who has used one for about six months says it is "the best 

 hired girl " she ever had. I have also used the Davis Swing Churn for the last 16 months, 

 and am highly pleased with it. It churns the cream at a.higher temperature and brings the 

 butter in a better condition than any other churn. I have given the Eureka Butter Worker 

 a fair trial, and am happy to recommend it to others. I can work twenty pounds of butter 

 with it in five minutes, and thus save a half hour's work. 



Yours truly,
