MORE PROOF SHOWING VhV DeIAVAL GO. 
ARE TELLING THE TRUTH WHEN 
THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE 
HAS BEEN LYING ABOUT PARIS SEPARATOR AWARDS 
In our last advertisement we referred to three statements that were in a recent 
l)eT.,aval advertisement, by which they hoped to make readers believe that the 
name “ Aktiebolaget Separator” did appear on the official list of awards distributed 
at tiie Paris Exp<isition and claiming “ Aktieliolaget Separator” to lie their Euro¬ 
pean orfianization, regardless of the fact that less than a month before they claimed 
“Societe Anonyme Separator” to he their European organization. However, 
they dropped this latter claim like a piece of hot iron when we proved that 
“ .Soci6t6 Anonyme Separator” exhibited at Paris a Butter Radiator and not a 
Cream Separator, and are again claiming “Aktiebolaget Separator.” 
One of the letters referred to purported to be signed by U. S. Consul-General 
at Stockholm, Sweden, under the date of April 17, 1901, reads as follows: 
“ From evidence this day furnished me I am able to certify that the Separator 
Company, I.td., (AktiebolagetSeparator) of this city did receive the ‘Grand Prize’ 
for theiriAlpha-DeLaval Separators at the Paris Exposition in the year 1900, as per 
announcement in the ‘Journal Officiel ’ Paris, of August 18, 1900, this day presented 
at this office.” 
NOTICE, this statement says “ as per announcement in the ‘ Journal Officiel ’ 
of August 18, 1900.”

As to the truth of this we ask the readers to examine the photographic 
reproduction given herewith of the list of winners of the Grand Prize at Paris 
in Class 37, tlie one in which cream separators and other dairy goods were 
entered, as published in the ‘ Journal Officiel’ dated August 18, 1900, and see if 
they can find the name of “Aktiebolaget Separator.” We cannot and do not 
believe anyone else can. 
Also notice the date of the statement—April 17, 1901, then bear in mind that 
seven months later, in November, 1901, the DeLaval Co. claimed their award 
through the “Societe Anonyme Separator,” but being cornered, they go back to 
their former claim that the award came through the “ Aktiebolaget Separator.” 
In the light of this pliotographic re-production and these statements we claim 
tliat our statement that tlie Official List of Awards published and distributed at 
the Paris Exposition contained no mention of any award to the DeLaval Separator 
Co. or the Aktiebolaget Separator is absolutely true. 
The sum and substance of the whole matter is it is terribly galling to the 
DeLaval Separator Co. to he continually beaten by tlie United States Separator, 
and tliey attempt to bluff off their defeats by publishing all sorts of statements in 
their advertisements, claiming first one thing and then another. It shows that they 
liave very little respect for the intelligence of readers when they make separate 
and contradictory claims within two weeks of one another.
