STAR WATER BOWLS 



Star Sanitary Water Bowls will 

 quickly return their cost. Tempered 

 water given the cow in the stall is more 

 relisued than icy water from the trough 

 In the unsheltered barnyard. In this 

 way Star Water Bowls cut out the win- 

 ter slump in the production of milk. 



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 the 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 drink- 

 ing, 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 replaced 

 if necessary. Pipe connections 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 $3.00 



STAR FEED CARRIER 



STAR FEEDER CARRIER Fig. 334 



A feed truck or carrier will save lots 

 of time and work. 



The overhead carrier has the same 

 tub as the feed truck. This is suspended 

 from the conveyor at four points and the 

 main shaft as well as the large parallel 

 tracker wheels are roller bearing 

 throughout. This makes an easy-run- 

 ning and easy raising and lowering 

 carrier.

 and easiest raising and lowering carrier made.

 roller bearing, and the large drive wheel fitted

 practical mechanical knowledge, as there is 

 nothing about it to get out of repair. 



The large tracker wheels are roller bearing 

 and run on a rigid track. It runs easy.
