It is a fact that 99 per cent of all separator buyers who do SEE AND TRY 'A DE.LAVAL machine before buying purchase tho DeLaval and will have no other. The 1 per cent who do not buy the DeLaval arc those who allow themselves to be influenced by some other consideration besides real genuine separator merit. If you aro thinking about buying a ercain separator vre will conhider it it livvor if you will permit us to set up a Do I, mill for you on your own nluco and hate you givo it a fair trial.

How-1 e'ver, the cmionity to see what the people wore doing in .the streets got us out of our beds and wo, along with ' Loren7.o nnd the little girl, iona, sat' out on the door steps watching the panic stricken people madly rubhiug to uud fro.
