Cream Separator Offer 
The Melotte—the wonderful Melotte—the great French-Belgian 
Separator—the prize winner all over Europe—now to be shipped anywhere in the U. S. 
—and on the most sweeping introductory offer. The best of all separators in Europe or 
America— yours on this Rock-Bottom free trial offer. The Melotte introduced a year 
ago swept the country even with the duty on. Those who knew cream separator values were glad to pay it. 
You now pay the same price you would pay in Belgium, plus only .$1.75 for water freight. 
This is positively the first bona fide, no-money-down offer ever made on any cream separator. No 
manufacturer of any cream separator ever dared make such a startling proposition before. All 
others who have ever pretended to offer you a free trial or to send their separators without any 
money down have taken care to get something out of you first. But we don’t want anything.

its absolute superiority there against any cream separator ever made, by any manufacturer.

like a top. It will continue spinning for half an hour after you stop turn¬ 
ing crank unless you apply brake. Patented self-balancing bowl is entirely 
automatic. You can’t get it out of balance and so perfect is the balance 
that it is impossible for it to vibrate and affect the skimming efficiency 
like other separators. The bowl chamber is made of 
special cast iron, porcelain lined witli white bath tub 
enamel. The Melotte is easiest to clean, perfectly 
sanitary and will last a lifetime. 
Absolutely guaranteed for 15 years.

French-Belgian Melotte 
Half a million Melottes are in 
daily use all over the world. Recog¬ 
nized as the world’s best separator. The 
Melotte has won over 180 International prizes. 
One Melotte has been running al Remincourt, 
Belgium, the equivalent of 54 years’of actual 
work without appreciable wear. Think of it! 
Every part is made at the factory at Remin¬ 
court, Belgium,by French and Belgian mechan¬ 
ics, and conics just as it is packed in foreign factory. 
The reasons for its superiority are plain. 
The bowl hangs down and spins as though 
running in oil. It can’t get out of balance. 
There is nothing to get out of alignment 
and wear out bearing. TheboNvl-charaber lined 
with special indestructible white enamel. The 
Melotte runs like new after ten years’ use. 
Monthly Payments 
These monthly payments 
are so small that you will 
hardly notice them. You only pay 
out of your increased profits. You don’t need to be without a cream separator when you can have the separator 
right in your dairy house while you are paying for it. In reality you do not pay for it at all. It pays for itself 
That is what we want to demonstrate to you. We want to demonstrate and prove 
beyond all peradventure that the Melotte Cream Separator does pay for itself. Only a few months’ use of a 
Melotte Cream Separator and you will be satisfied that this statement is absolutely correct. A few months and 
the separator has paid for itself. It does not cost you a penny because the increased amount of cream has paid 
for the machine. We don’t want to tire you here with a long discussion of how our cream separator is made. 
You can best understand this if you will let us send you our free catalog.
