A EEW WORDS 
Over 3,000 Pounds per Hour. 
White Cheek, N. Y., November 22, 1897. 
After running a No. 1 Improved U. S. Separator for about 
18 months, I can truthfully say, it is the best machine on the 
market, and I have tried several separators. It is always 
ready and never out of repair. 
On June 30, 1897, I ran 9,008 pounds of milk in two hours, 
57 minutes without stopping, skimming down to .06 of one 
per cent 22 minutes before machine was shut down. This I 
consider a big feather for the U. S.—over 3,000 pounds per i 
hour. George W inton, 
Secretary and Superintendent White Creek Creamery Co. 
Has No Equal. 
Hopkinton, N. Y., December 18, 1897. 
Have had 12 years experience with different kinds of sep¬ 
arators, and find that the U. S. has no equal. 
W. O. Oliver, 
Proprietor Hopkinton Creamery. 
FROM FACTORIES . 
The U. S. Taking the Lead Over all Other Makes. 
Woodstock, Vt., March 28, 1898. 
Advanced Dairying calls for improved methods, and 'the 
Improved U. S. Separators are rapidly increasing in this 
section, and taking the lead over all other makes combined. 
The cream received from them is always fine for Butter, Ice 
Cream or Shipping purposes. G. I. Wilcox, 
Proprietor Woodstock Creamery. 
A Separator Equal to the U. S. Not Yet Invented. 
Mater, Minn., December 22, 1897. 
Our conclusion, after using two No. 1 Improved U. S. 
Separators, is the machine that can equal the U. S. in all 
respects has yet to be invented. G. A. Gatz, 
Secretary Mayer Creamery Co. 
WHAT A FEW DAIRY USERS SAY, 
New York Dairymen’s Association’s Ex-President. 
Aurelius, N. Y., June 15, 1897. 
r I have run the Improved U. S. Separator nearly three years, skim¬ 
ming to perfection. For ease in washing and manipulating the 
Improved U. S. Separator cannot be excelled, and I consider it as 
near perfect as can be. Aug. D. Baker. 
Easiest Running' Separator on the Market. 
Mayfield, N. Y., June 10, 1897. 
Have started on my third years’ use of the No. 5 Improved U. S. 
Separator, and find it just as represented. First, a clean skimmer ; 
Second, the easiest running separator on the market; Third, the 
easiest to wash. It does more than its claimed capacity. My sole 
expense has been for oil and rubber rings. I would suggest that 
those who intend to buy a separator make a careful study of the 
simple and durable enclosed gear of the U. S. as compared with com¬ 
petitor’s noisy and complicated machines with exposed gears which 
are a source of danger to fingers and clothing at all times. 
Richard W. Woodworth. 
Beats Everything. 
Lyndonville, Vt., November 26, 1897. 
The Improved U. S. is by far the smoothest-running separator I 
have ever seen in operation. Asa skimmer it beats anything I have 
ever tested. W. I. Powers, Manager Speedwell Farms. 
Far Exceeds All Others. 
Wyoming, R. I., December 27, 1897. 
I would not be without the Improved U. S. Separator I bought 
some time ago for many reasons : I can get more from the cows ; 1 
can feed the skim-milk warm ; I believe it far exceeds any^ other 
separator that has been invented. Nathan W. James.

HALLOCK’S SUCCESS 
WEEDER and CULTIVATOR 
Messrs. D. Y. Hallock & Son, York, Pa. , ^ 
///»»»—r.nst. spiiKon I used one of your Success Anti-clog \V eedero, 
READ TH^ TESTIMONY: 
WHITESBOJjS> N.Y, 
Bought 
Dleased with the Weeder and the good work it did. . ’ 
1 For myself I can say a great deal of my corn—never saw a ho^cy' ne field during 
the entireseason. One piece I planted a little too thick; so whe^ . was about one 
foot high I wished to thin it out so it would ear better, So I too k the Weeder and 
started in; went lengthwise and crosswise, and every other way that I could drive my 
horse, thinking it m ight break ofF some of the stalks; butl can safely say that I did 
not break off two stalks in the whole field. ....... 
Before I had commenced to use my Weeder many of my neighbors thought 
that it would tear up the corn and potatoes. But after they had seen 
me give it this thorough trial they were convinced that it would 
not harm the corn in the least. The fact is, I am sure the 
Weeder will not injure any crop grown on the farm. It 
is very important, however, that 
theWeeder be started early. 1 f the 
weeds are allowed to get a good 
start the Weeder will simply cul¬ 
tivate them, as it does the crop. 
Yours truly, W. R. Jones. 
Center, N. Y. 
Messrs. D. Y. Hallock & Son, 
Gentlemen —How about the price of your Weeder 
for the coming season? Is it the same as last 
year ? I intend to sell quite a good many. I used the 
Weeder I purchased of you last year on everything 
T raised, including even onions, and it worked to per¬ 
fection on everything. I can honestly say I would not be 
without it for 850, if I could not get another just like it. 
Yours truly, T. B. NICHOLS. 
Messrs. D. Y. Hallock & Son, York, Pa. Irwin, Pa. 
Dear Sirs—l intend to sell just as many Weeders as I can this Spring. I bought 
one last Spring for my own use and they are certainly a complete success, and I would 
not think of farming withoutone. Last Spring, in April, I contracted to cut and haul 
to the saw mill a lot of lumber; so I took all my meu away,leaving only my fourteen 
year old boy on the farm. Now, I will tell you what he did. He took the entire care 
of thirty-five acres of corn and twelve acres of potatoes, working both crops entirely 
with the Weeder, and I never saw a finer crop in my life. , ^ , 
The secret of Success in using your Weeder is to start it early, before anything 
grows, and keep the soil stirred so no weeds will grow. No farmer can afford to farm 
without a Weeder, and all will own one just as soon as they realize its value. 
Yours truly, Hezekiah Gongamere. 
Messrs. D. Y. Hallock & Son, York, Pa. Morley, Mich. 
Dear Sirs —Your favor of recent date, wishing to know if I am going to handle 
the Success Anti-clog Weeder the coming season received. I certainly am if you will 
permit me to, and I intend to push them for all they are worth. 
I let my Weeder go wherever the farmers wanted to try it, and they all pronounced 
ita grand success; declared that it didfine work. The Weeder that I kept for my own 
use I would not take 820 for if I could not get another just like it. 
I sold one Weeder to a neighbor near by very late in the season, and I will tell 
you what he did with it. He planted one acre of potatoes quite late, and he tended 
them entirely with the Weeder until he went to hill them up. and spent but five hours 
work all told on the acre of potatoes. He told me he kept the time carefully that 
he spent in cultivating them. Said he started the Weeder before they were up, and 
went over the potatoes frequently. Yours truly, J. W. Hardin. 
Russellvile. Ark., December 24tb, 1897. 
“I bad the best of success with the Success Anti-clog Weeder and Cultivator. I 
can truthfully say that I never used a tool thatequalled it in young cotton and corn. 
I saved half of the hoeing and plowing by running the Weeder. I beat all my neigh¬ 
bors raising corn, and equalled any of them In producing cotton, with half the expense. 
Several neighbors say they want one. I want the agency for Pope and \ ell counties, 
not j ust for 1898, but until all the farmers get one. "" 
or later.” 
Thev will all be sure to buy sooner
