Could They Be 

 More Foolish? 



The best proof that common cream separators are 

 out-of-date is the fact that they contain 40 to 60 disks 

 or other contraptions. They need such contraptions 

 simply because they lack skimming force. Since they 

 lack skimming force, they are neither modern nor 

 properly built. In view of these facts, could any 

 maker or agent of common cream separators be more 

 foolish or incorrect than to claim that disks or other 

 contraptions make, or are needed in, a modern 

 machine?

are entirely dif- 

 ferent from all 

 others. They 

 produce twice 

 the skimming 

 force of com- 

 mon separators. 

 Dairy Tubulars 

 neither use nor 

 need disks or 

 other contrap- 

 tions. They 

 skim faster, 

 skim twice as 

 clean, wash

many times easier, and wear 

 several times longer than com- 

 mon separators.

Hardy 



Perennials 



For Cold Weather 



If you have not tried Horsford's Plants, better 

 get a few to set with others and watch results. 

 It pays to have the best if you are looking for the 

 best flowers. Plants from cold Vermont will win- 

 ter almost anywhere that white men can. If in- 

 terested in Hardy Bulbs for Autumn setting, 

 Home Grown Lilies, Shrubs, Trees or Vines, you 

 can get them from a Northern climate and feel 

 sure they won't kill back the first hard Winter. 

 My Autumn Supplement, ready middle of August, 

 offers many inducements to those who have room 

 to plant liberally. You should ask for it, also 

 my Spring catalogue, before placing Fall orders.
