De Laval Separator Butter 



makes clean sweep at the 



great Chicago Dairy Show and 



1907 State Fairs 



TN keeping with the triumphant record of fifteen years, butter exhibits made from 

 1 DE LAVAL SEPARATOR CREAM made a clean sweep of all high scores at 

 the big NATIONAL DAIRY SHOW in Chicago the week of October 14-19. 



First Prize went to A. Lindblad, North Branch, Minn., with a score of 97, 1 -s 

 Second Prize went to A. Schroeder, Adams, Minn., with a score of 97 

 Third Prize went to Herman C. Raven, Bloomer, Wis., with a score of 96'i 



94/^ per cent of all the entries were De Laval made, showing the overwhelming use of De 

 Laval machines by well-informed butter makers everywhere, while the average score of all the 

 De Laval made entries was 92 against an average score of 89 for all the other entries, proving 

 again the unquestionable superiority of De Laval separator cream in good butter-making. 



Then, as usual, T)e Laval Butter has made a clean sweep of all First Prizes and Highest 

 Honors at the 1 907 State Fairs, reports to date giving chief winners and best scores as 

 follows : 



O. R. McCormick, Bancroft - Score 98

COLORADO, - Mr. Parfeit, Golden - Score not reported 



At the 1907 Tennessee State Fair a big butter-making contest, limited to Tennessee women, 

 was held in the presence of 5,000 people and Miss Kate Gleaves, who won the First Prize 

 of $50, made her butter from De Laval cream. 



And so it goes : From year to year De Laval users invariably win all highest honors in 

 every important butter competition. All Highest Awards in every contest of the National 

 Buttermakers' Association since 1 892 have been won by users of De Laval machines. The 

 butter receiving the highest score at the Worlds Exposition in Paris in 1 90 1 was De Laval 

 made ; as was also the Grand Prize Butter of the St. Louis World's Fair in 1 904. 



A De Laval catalog, to be had for the asking, will help to make plain why De Laval cream 

 enables superior buttermaking. You merely have to write for it.
