THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
25i 
CREAM SEPARATOR INFRINGERS 
p 
r 
We notice, by the latest advertisement of our “ would-be com¬ 
petitors ” that they have succumbed to just what we predicted, the 
“slippery hold upon the stump ” has given w T ay, and they are “in 
the mire,” and, although still slinging mud, we feel called upon to 
thank them for placing the 
IMPROVED UNITED STATES SEPARATOR 
out of reach of their mud-slinging, as they direct their insinuating 
and intimidating advertisements toward Infringers whose “ agents 
and representatives—and many of the unfortunate buyers of their 
machines—have already been perpetually enjoined from the further 
use of the same; ” which, even if any one had for a moment been 
hoodwinked into giving any weight to, would most assuredly and 
rightly place the Improved United States Separator where every 
truthful and honorable competitor knows it belongs, out of the range 
of their vituperations, as 
No aerent, dealer or user of the Improved United 
States Separator has ever been enjoined, or sued, 
or even molested, in its peaceful sale or use. 
But how ridiculous their insinuations on their face, because if 
persons have been enjoined, they can not be selling or using 
the Separators. Any “ wayfaring man, though a fool,” knows that; 
and it is very apparent to every experienced person that such adver¬ 
tisements are published in the hope of retaining the trade which the 
Improved United States Separator is winning away from them by 
its superior merits. 
We call the attention of the dairy public still further to the fact 
that the Improved United States Separator has not only never had a 
suit brought against it by any one, and never been enjoined, but 
every person whom our mud-slinging competitors claim was enjoined 
under their trivial and greatly magnified scarecrow patent suit from 
using another Separator, entirely foreign in every way to the Improved 
United States Separator, and in no way relating to it or affect¬ 
ing it, has since that decree of the Court purchased, and is now 
using, the Improved United States Sep arator, without moles- 
tation; and, therefore, 
To Escape all Liability, 
All dairymen who wish to be free from such liability of claims of 
infringement should 
Buy the Improved United States Separator. 
Then they have the Separator that not only excels all others on its 
merits, but all liability of infringement is avoided, as the Improved 
United Stat es Se parators a re fully protected by our patents.

with a cloth or fine paper, shines with a 
maiden’s blush. The ilesh has a yellow¬ 
ish tinge. In shape, it is almost perfec¬ 
tion. One kind has white flesh, another 
has the red skin with dark spots and is 
one-sided in shape. These seem to 
answer the Geneva description. All 
these appear to be hybrid Winesap mix¬ 
tures. 
The mountain cove black lands in 
Albemarle, Nelson and Amherst Coun¬ 
ties are best adapted for raising the best 
Albemarle Pippins, while the red lands 
are the best for Winesap and other red 
apples. The more sunshine, the more 
saccharine matter, and the richer the 
color. This is the reason why our Wine- 
saps top the world's markets, and why 
we now produce those apples that out¬ 
sell all others. Put this prediction on 
record : This Piedmont region will yet 
be the best winter apple orchard for the 
world. Thanks to the Columbian Ex¬ 
position, we are on top now in quality, 
only lacking the quantity. Tobacco 
has cursed this section, apples will re¬ 
deem us. 
Producer and Consumer. 
G. W. K., Clark Station, Ky.—A 
Louisville woman of my acquaintance 
recently told me the following story. It 
is quite instructive for the arithmetic it 
contains : In a basket of peaches which 
she bought last summer, she found a 
note which, evidently, was slipped in 
secretly before the basket left the farm. 
It was something to this effect: “ Who¬ 
ever purchases this basket of peaches, 
please let me know where you bought 
it, when, and how much you paid for it. 
I am a little girl, and these peaches are 
from my pet tree. I received six cents 
for this basketful.” (Then followed the 
address). The Louisville customer wrote 
to her unknown young friend, who, by 
the way, resides in Michigan, givingher 
the information desired, and also the 
fact, that she paid 50 cents for the basket 
of peaches.
