Every farmer knows this to be a convenience that is worth money. With the Beatrice you can skim milk when you are ready—you don’t nave to make your plans fit the Separator—the Beatrice will fit your convenience. One of the several reasons for this closer skim ming is the Double Angle Diec. This type of Disc is possessed by no other Separator, but is generally admitted to be such a great advantage over the old-style Disc that one Separator manufacturer Bpent $50,000 trying to imitate the Beatrice Disc.

It is being operated every day, running full capacity, skimming a heavy cream and leaving only one one-hundredth to two one-hundredths of one per cent in the skim milk.” Don’t consider any Separator until you come in and see the Double-Angle Discs, and also the Beatrice Washer—a new invention, given free with each Separator. Washed in Two Minutes With the Beatrice Washer, the Beatrice Separator may be thoroughly cleaned, sterilized and dried in only two minutes. This makes a hit with every voinan.
