SOME OF THE REASONS WHY 
the 
United States Separator 
Is the BEST in the World 
The United States Separator employs a feeding device to 
deliver the whole milk beyond the cream zone—preventing any 
remixing of cream and skimmilk and any conflict of currents. 
No other device of any other Separator will do this 
work so well, as the records show. This device is patent¬ 
ed, and can be used on no other Separator. 
The United States uses non-aligned channels for the cur¬ 
rents of milk through the separator bowl. This is covered 
by strong patents. No discs or other construction can 
equal its perfection in separation. It won the world’s 
record for skimming, in 50 consecutive runs continuing 30 
days, with the milk of ten different breeds of cows. 
99i!m> of the creameries use cream gathered from United 
States Separators— and are eager for more. Cream from 
the United States is smooth and perfect for butter making. 
The United States skims cleaner, runs easier, washes 
easier and lasts longer than any other separator. Ask the man 
who runs one. Ask us for catalogue No. 159 at once.

Is Your Sod Root-Bound? 
Root-bound sods do not produce the 
forage that they otherwise would, 
neither is the hay tonnage what it 
should be. The remedy for this is to 
reseed old pastures and meadows with 
a disk drill. The proper time to do 
this work is when the sod is wet in the 
spring from the frost leaving the 
ground. Clover is one of the best na¬ 
tural fertilizers and enrichers of the 
soil. Many fanners, therefore use a 
mixture of timothy and clover or alsike 
and red top. Clovers must have moist¬ 
ure and this is why it is best to do 
the work in the spring. Experience 
shows that this work not only increases 
the hay yield, but also provides abund¬ 
ant pasture when pasture is short in 
July and August. Do not attempt to 
broadcast the seed on sod land. Get 
an Empire Disk Drill manufactured by 
The American Seeding-Machine Co., 
Incorporated, Richmond, lad. This 
drill provides the way to do the work 
right by conducting the seed from the 
grass seeder through the grain tubes 
and placing the seed in rows made 
by the disk.s This disking relieves the 
sod if root bound. The Empire Drill 
will sow all kinds of seed—no seed 
too large and no seed so small that 
the Empire will fail to sow it right. 
Empire Drills are made in many dif¬ 
ferent styles and sizes—plain and fer¬ 
tilizer. So no difference what your 
seeding conditions may be, or where 
you live, you can get an Empire that 
will do your work in the best possible 
manner. Write the manufacturers for 
an Empire catalogue. Then go to your 
implement dealer and insist on seeing 
an Empire Drill, which is guaranteed 
to you in such a way as to protect your 
interests.
