Pictures Against TaJk 



NO matter how complicated his cream separator, 

 every "bucket bowl" manufacturer claims his 

 machine is simplest and easiest to clean. Even the 

 makers of disk machines — with 40 to 60 pieces 

 inside the bowl — make the same claims. Yet J 

 none of these "bucket bowl" fellows dare put 

 pictures of their separator bowl parts into their 

 advertisements — they all realize that pic- 

 tures would make their claims ridiculous. 



I 



The Sharpies Dairy Tubular Cream 

 Separator is, without exception, the 

 only simple, sanitary, easy to clean 

 separator made. We put pictures 

 against "bucket bowl" talk. We fre- 

 quently show you pictures of the light, 

 simple Dairy Tubular Bowl and of 

 heavy, complicated "bucket bowls." 

 Compare them. They tell the whole 

 story. It will take you less than 

 thirty seconds to put "bucket bowl" claims where they belong. 

 The self styled "original maker of disk machines" is trying to maintain sales by 

 patent infringement suits against equally cheap machines, that have been made for several 

 years with disks like his. If you want to avoid work, expense and dissatisfaction, get a 

 Sharpies Dairy Tubular. Made in the world's biggest and best separator factory. 

 Branch factories in Canada and Germany. Sales greater than most, if not all, "bucket 

 bowl" separators combined. Write for catalog No. 215. 



One pan contains the single little 

 piece used in Sharpies Dairy Tubu= 

 lar bowls. The other contains noth= 

 ing but disks from a single "bucket 

 bowl." Which is simple and easy 

 to clean?

The Oil That Stays On a Loose Bearing 



is Ruddy Harvester Oil. It has a way of staying on and 

 wearing long which makes it invaluable for farm machinery — 

 especially when boxes and bearings are considerably worn. 



Ruddy Harvester Oil 



is a heavy oil, yet a free feeder. There is no acid in it — it 

 won't gum and it won't rust. Winter or Summer, the best 

 oil for heavy or much worn farm machinery is Ruddy 

 Harvester Oil. 



Comes in quart, gallon, 5-gallon cans, half barrels and 

 barrels. Ask for it.
