SHARPLES MILKER 



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

 try's large and small dairies, they have attained a reputation for 98 per cent, 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 almosl 

 always be immediately effected, which, taken in the rough, averages $25 per month, or $300 per year. 

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

 the use of the Milker, should approximate half as much more, or $450 in all. 



When a Sharpies Milker is in- 

 stalled, it is soon found that the 

 same number of men are not 

 needed to do the chores and odd 

 jobs which fill in the gap between 

 the morning and evening milking 

 periods. Men otherwise unneces- 

 sary 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 advantages. 

 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 in- 

 stalled, that the user decides to 

 add another 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, puisa- 

 tor and teat 

 cups.

TO PROSPECTIVE 

 PURCHASERS 



If you are considering the purchase of a 

 Mechanical Milkei, 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 ref- 

 erence to the adaptability of the machine or 

 the condition of the cows after the machine 

 has been used through the entire milking 

 period. 



The New five-inch single cylin- 

 der pumping equipment just got- 

 ten out places a Sharpies Milker 

 within the reach of everyone. 

 Heretofore the Milker reached 

 maximum efficiency in dairies of 

 15 or tmore cows. But the new 

 pump makes it possible to achieve 

 the same splendid results in dair- 

 ies 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

Installations are made under 

 the superintendence of Sharpies 

 Mechanical Experts, who stay on 

 the ground long enough to thor- 

 oughly instruct purchasers in the 

 care and method of operating the 

 machine.
