SHARPIES MILKER 



IN the five years dining which Sharpies Milkers have been at work in some of the best of the coun- 

 try's large and small dailies they have attained a reputation for 98 pei- "ceut. satisfactory service. 

 But, despite the fact that the Sharpies Milker is now milking- upwards of a quarter million cows, 

 there are still a number of dairymen, who are unacquainted with the merits of this wonderfully suc- 

 cessful machine. 



In a dairy where a two-unit Sharpies Milker is installed, the saving of one man's salary can almost 

 always be immediately effected, wliich, taken in the rough, averages f23 per month, or .^HOO per year. 

 The additional savings in time and in board taken in conjunction with other profits accruing from 

 tlie use of the Milker, should approximate half as much more, or .floO in all. 



When a Sharpies Milker is in- 

 stalled it is soon found that the 

 same number of men are not need- 

 ed to do the chores and odd jobs 

 which fill in the gap between the 

 morning and evening milking pe- 

 riods. Men otherwise unnecessary 

 are sometimes kept on the payroll 

 as milkers because the milking 

 cannot be done without their help. 



Using this two-unit Sharpies 

 Milker, one man can milk a twenty- 

 cow herd in one hour. This feature 

 of the Sharpies Milker, namely, fast 

 milking, which is made possible by 

 the quick and entire relief of the 

 "upward squeeze," has two big ad- 

 vantages. It gets the job done 

 quickly and it tends to make the 

 cow give more milk. 



EXTRA UNITS. 



It frequently occurs that after 

 a two-unit outfit has been installed, 

 that the user decides to add an- 

 other unit. In doing this it is not 

 necessary to make any changes. All 

 that is neces- 

 sary is to order 

 another milk- 

 ing unit and 

 go right ahead 

 just the same 

 as previously. 



This unit 

 comprises pail, 

 pail lid, pulsa- 

 tor and teat 

 cups.

TO PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS 



If you are con.sidering- the purchase of a 

 Mechanical Milkev, we would be pleased to 

 make arrangements to take you to inspect 

 several outfits that have been in operation 

 for from one to two years. These outfits 

 are about eight miles out from the city, and 

 if you will notify us in advance we will 

 make arrangements to take you out. The 

 parties using these outfits milk about four 

 o'clock, and it would be better to leave the 

 store about three o'clock. This would give 

 time to get on the ground so you could see 

 the Milker in operation. 



These machines are operated by the own- 

 ers, from whom you will be able to get first- 

 hand information. They will be glad to 

 answer any question you may ask in refer- 

 ence to the adaptability of the machine or 

 the condition of the cows after the machine 

 has been used through the entire milking 

 IJt-riod. 



The New five-inch single cylinder 

 pumping equipment just gotten out 

 places a Sharpies Milker within the 

 reach of everyone. Heretofore the 

 Milker reached maximum efficiency 

 in dairies of 15 or more cows. But 

 the new pump makes it possible to 

 achieve the same splendid results 

 in dairies of 10 to 25 cows. It also 

 makes a tremendous difference in 

 the cost of an outfit, as you can 

 now purchase a regular, standard, 

 one-man machine of two units, big 

 enough for a herd of 25 cows, yet 

 cheap enough for a herd of 10 cows, 

 installed ready for use at the total 

 cost of $365.00. 



Installations are made under the 

 superintendence of Sharpies Me- 

 chanical Experts, who stay on the 

 ground long enough to thoroughly 

 instruct purchasers in the care and 

 method of operating the machine.
