STAR WATER ROWLS 



II 



star Sanitary Water Bowls will 

 quickly return tneir cost. Tempered 

 water given the cow in the stall is 

 more relished than icy water from the 

 trough in the unsheltered barnyard. 

 In this way Star Water Bowls cut out 

 the winter slump in the production of 

 milli. 



Star Water Bowls are individual. 

 The only water that can get in is 

 fresh water that comes through the 

 supply pipe. The valve is opened by 

 pressure on tlie leaf which hangs 

 into the bowl at an angle. The cow 

 can see the water in the bowl; doesn't 

 have to learn to drink; doesn't suck 

 up air while drinking, and is in no 

 danger of injury. The valve lever or 

 leaf can be raised while the bowl is 

 being cleaned. 



Valve is easily removed and re- 

 placed if necessary. Pipe connec- 

 tions can be made from either above 

 or below. 



Bowl is cast in one piece with rolled 

 edges and no seams or corners. It is 

 as easy to keep clean as a china 

 teacup. Each $2.25

 points, all roller bearing, and the large drive 

 wheel fitted with an endless chain is at-
