CREAM SEPARATOR
Users of Dc Laval Cream Separators have carried
away every first prize awarded at conventions of the
National Creamery Buttermakers' Association during the
last twenty-five years. The record is unbroken.
That ought to be proof enough that cream separated by
the Dc Laval is superior to any other.
The reason is that Dc Laval bowl
design, together with low speed,
enable the delivery of butter-fat
globules unbroken in their natural
condition.
The NEW Dc Laval is the
"blue-ribbon" separator.

Farm Improvements Will Aid
in Readjustment
Farm products have u greater pur
chasing power today than ever be
fore in the countiy's history. This
may explain why rural districts of
the country rapidly are getting un
der way with building and construc
tion woik. It is obvious, since build
ing and construction work have such
an important bearing at this time on
stimulating general business, the
farmer may servo both his own and
the-national interest by at once mak
ing needed improvements on his
property. He can further the general
welfare, while assuring himself of
immediate and permanent benefits, in
urging load construction and improve
ments in his locality.
It is gcncially understood no
material reduction may be uxpected in
building and construction costs in the
near future. To be sure, prices on
some materials may be slightly re
duced in the readjustment, but the
best authorities on the subject assert
no pronounced reductions arc prob
able. This is explained by money con
ditions, the foreign demand, and the
marked curtailment of production of
building materials during the war.
Prof. Fisher of Yale University has
issued a statement in which he says
the couuntry is on a new price level
fiom which there will be no goncial
recession.
Many farmers have been unable to
got materials and labor for bams,
silos, houses and other improcements
during the war. The farmer who at
once avails oi me muor supply and
nets his improvement woik under
way, in the long run, may prove to
be the prudent business man, for
there is reason to believe that farmers
who delay in the hope of materially
reduced construction costs will have
been deprived of the use of these im
provement and in the cn,d be forced
to pay approximately the building
prices' now prevailing.
In several states, among them
Missouri, Oregon and Colorado, so
building campaigns arc being carried
on by the Agriculture colleges. In
Wisconsin there is a milk house cam
paign being vigorously prosecuted in
the dairy districts, while in Illinois'
industrial process to await some fu
ture readjustment of wages and prices
of staples. So far ns public improve
ments arc concerned, they Fhould be
resumed at once. It is better tjiat the
public should nbsoib the increased
cost, if any should hereafter appear,
thun that general unemployment and
consequent disaster and social dis
order should follow.
"We believe also that the promoters
of private constitution and business
enlargement should take heart of
courage and should believe in the im
mediate lcsumption of business pros
perity in the United States. There is
no place in the American scheme of
things for the pessimist or the doub
ter. Our country today leads the
world in prosperity. It can lose its
leadership only byAjts own faint
heartedness. We especially deprecate
any concerted holding back of con
struction and business lcsumption, for
the purpose of forcing a reduction in
wages or cost of material.
"Both as a means of stimulating the
resumption of industry and removing
the shadow of unemployment from the
working people and also servo the
broader and more permanent purpose
of supplementing the railroad lines
and to develop the inland and fami
commerce of the country, the work of
constructing good roads should bo
promptly carried on by cooperation of
the Federal and State Governors and
local communities."
In the recent Confoience of Gover
nors and Mayors in Washington and
local communities."
In the recent Confeience of Gover
nors and Mayors in Washington, it
was appaicnt that these executives
wcie disposed to go in for extensive
road and public improvementts cam
paigns in their respective districts.
These can be made a success only
when they are supported by the 'cit
izens. For this reason, the farmer, as
well as the city dweller, who under
stands how importantly building and
construction woik now is affecting
gencial business conditions will back
1 up his local officials in every reason
I able campaign for road building and
public woiks of a ncccssaiy sort.

Before you place you place your order for your new
Heating Plant give the matter careful thought. House
heating is no longer a -matter of guess work, or an experi
ment. It has become a science.
Our space in The Chief for the next few weeks will be
devoted to a discussion of the latest notable achievement
in the science of house-heating and its relation to tho
health of the home.
No heating system is good enough unless it is "RIGHT".
It is something your family must live with. No other
single effort means as much to your household, Our great
est struggle is against ill-health. It is expensive. It
stands in the way of happiness and prosperity. Fresh air
is cheap after you have the system installed.
Study the points of FarQuar Sanitary Heating System.
The worst gas poision in the house comes from the fire.
It is a product of combustion, being one of the oxides of
carbon. It is known by various names "Carbon Mon
oxide," "Carbonic Oxide," "Carbonic Anhydride, etc. You
are unconscious of its undermining influence in your body
until the haim is done some weakened parts gives way
and you "go to pieces".
Cast iron is porous and will not prevent the escape of
this penetrating gas. The intense heat keeps the pores al
ways open.
FarQuar fire boxes are made of metal that does not per
mit this gas to escape. The FarQuar fire box is welded at
the seams. It is imperforate. It has self-closing doors
and drafts for protection against reckless management
Step in and let us tell you more about the "superior
points" of the FarQuar Sanitary Heating System.

This month the Western Bottling Works resumed their manu

preferring to close their plant rather than use substitutes in the
manufacture of their product. This week they put their product
out to the trade at 75 cents per ens, making it possible for the
dealers to ajraln resume the sale of u cent Pop. During the time
they were closed Pop retailed nt 8 cents per bottle.
