Cream Separators. 
The Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station. 
Madison, Wis., July 13 , 1897 . 
In conducting our Dairy School, we have had occasion to use the various sizes 
of Improved U. S. Separators for dairy instruction during several winters past. 
Our students have always been pleased with the operation of these Separators, 
and we find that they skim the milk very clean indeed from fat, and that they 
are generally very satisfactory. 
W. A. HENRY, Dean College of Agriculture. 
Cornell University Experiment Station. 
Ithaca, N. Y.. November 15 , 1897 . 
We have used the U. S. Separators for the past four or five years, and have 
found them at all times efficient and reliable. They are easily cleaned and kept 
in order, and. can be depended upon for satisfactory work. 
H. H. WING, Prof. Dairy Husbandry. 
Massachusetts Agricultural College. 
Amherst, Mass. July 7 , 1897 . 
We regard the Improved United States Separator as one of the very best all 
round machines. In cleanness of skimming it surpassed all the others. It 
compares favorably with the rest in capacity. Our man calls it the smoothest 
running machine we have, although it has been in use nearly three years—a 
--BY, Prof, of i 
I good comment on its wearing qualities. 
F. S. COOL 
Prof, of Ag’t. 
Michigan Experiment Station. 
Agricultural College, Mich., Jan. 27 , 1897 . 
Your No. 5 Separator was received, set up, and has been operated daily since 
the 4 th of January. Each of our dairy boys has now had a turn at it, setting it 
up, running it, washing it, and testing the skim-milk. They all like the machine, 
on account of its easy running and simplicity. We are running through milk 
12 to 24 hours old, warmed to over 80 and usually about 90 degrees. The per 
cent, of fat in the skim-milk, so far as reported, will not reacli on the average 
a tenth of a per cent., and often is too small to read, in the skim-milk bottle. We 
are pleased with the machine in every possible way, as far as we have been able 
observe it in a month’s use. 
CLINTON D. SMITH, Director Michigan Experiment Station, 
to 
1898 Record Equally as Cood. 
Agricultural College, Mich., March 25 , 1898 . 
I do not know that I have anything to add to what I wrote you in January, 
1897 , or any changes to make in the statements therein made (see above). 
__ C. D. SMITH, Director. 
Vermont Experiment Station. 
University of Vermont and State agricultural College, I * 
Burlington, Vt., June 25 , 1897 .) 
It has been the uniform custom of the officers of the Vermont Station to 
decline to issue letters of a testimonial nature. I may say, however, that I can 
and do refer parties inquiring regarding the merits of the Improved United 
States Separators to the records of the running of the same as published in our 
report for 1894 . 
(The tests referred to are as follows): 
Aug. 14 .0.05 Aug. tg.0.06 
“ 16 . 0.05 “ 21 . 0.05 
The results obtained by the use of these machines at our Dairy Schools of the 
past two years are full better, so far as the character of the skimming is con¬ 
cerned, than those given in the report. 
JOSEPH L. HILLS (Director Vt. Experiment Station). 
Iowa Experiment Station. 
. Ames, Iowa, Jan. 23 , 1897 . 
Your two machines have been here in use for some time and are doing! 
excellent work. 
We have succeeded in skimming over 2,600 pounds per hour, and as close as 
0.07 of one per cent, of fat left in skim-milk, with the larger machine. This we 
consider excellent work for the winter. The small machine also does good 
work. G. L. McKAY, .State Dairy Instructor, Iowa Ag’l College. 
Again in June; Iowa Experiment Station. 
* , Ames, Iowa, June 25 , 1897 . 
Your large size factory machine has been doing excellent work. We have , 
used it six days per week for the past two months, and it skims to a trace right 
1 along, skimming 2,500 to 2,700 pounds per hour. 
G. L. McKAY, State Dairy Instructor. 
Ohio State University. 
Columbus, Ohio, June 25 , 1897 . 
Enclosed you will find statement of the several runs made with your various 
S lTests°from the runs referred to show the following): 
January 15 . 0.02 February 2 . 0.00 February 15 . 0.02 
18 tests show not over 0.05 of one per cent, of fat. 
Of course, you will understand that these runs were made by students who at 
[the beginning had no knowledge of separator work. The same efficiency can 
hardly be expected under such circumstances as where operated by an expert. 
THOMAS F. HUNT (Professor of Agriculture). 
Idaho Experiment Station. 
Moscow, Idaho, March 26 , 1897 . 
Our Dairy .School has just closed, having had a very successful career. We 
have used daily one of your No. 5 Improved U. S. Separators. It has given 
nerfect satisfaction, and is the favorite with all the boys. , , 
CHAS. P. FOX, Professor of Agriculture, 
Connecticut Experiment Station. 
New Haven, Conn., Aug. 3 , 1897 . 
The Improved U. S. Steam Turbine is running every day, and has been since 
April. It is an easy-running and thorough skimming machine. 
In two recent tests, made on different days, running a trifle over 700 lbs. of 
milk per hour, the skim-milk showed : 
No. 1 , 0.06 of 1 per cent, butter fat. 
No. 2 , 0.07 .. 
This is as close as any one could ask for.
