BILTMQRE VINES 
The wonderful grace 
and beauty of well-placed 
vines add untold value 
and charm to the home 
and garden. Ornamental 
grassesand bamboos yield 
very effective and artistic 
results. Hardy ferns are 
of easy culture and offer 
a wide range of possibili- 
ties. Aquatic and bog plants 
are so hardy and easy to grow 
that they are deservedly increas- 
ing in general favor.

TEN YEARS AHEAD 
OF ALL OTHER 
CREAM 
SEPARATORS 
In skimming efficiency, simplicity, dura- 
bility and convenience, the new 1908 improved 
De Laval Cream Separators are fully ten years 
ahead of any other machine on the market to- day. 
Thirty years of experience, protecting patents, 
and the many valuable improvements devisedand 
perfected by the De Laval engineers in all parts 
of the world during the past three years, are responsible for this fact. Every 
feature of the De Laval has been improved, from the supply can to the base. 
The new centre-balanced bow! with its separate spindle is alone a triumph 
in separator construction and must be seen to be fully appreciated. Then, 
there is the new one-piece ‘‘anti-splash’’ sanitary supply can, adjustable 
shelves for skim milk and cream receptacles, new frame designs, and many 
other but less important improvements,—all combining to make the De Laval 
as nearly ideal as a separator for farm and dairy use can be made. ‘There 
is the proper size machine for every size dairy from the smallest to the 
largest, and no cow owner can afford to be without one of these improved 
machines. It will cost you nothing to see and examine the new De Laval 
and right at your own home too, if you will but say the word. Our new 
illustrated catalog describing the De Laval improvements in detail is sent 
for the asking, Write us at once and you will receive this interesting book 
by first mail with full information as to how you may have a free demon- 
stration of the improved De Laval in your own home. It will pay you to 
do so and your only regret will be that you didn’t investigate sooner
