SALISBURY : Sell the Champion Cream Saver I F yon have ever owned a separator of any other make, there is one outstanding feature of the NEW De Laval that will appeal to you as much as even its mechanical superiority. and that is its simplicity. You" won't find any complicated, troublesome parts in the NEW De Laval. It does not get out of order easily, even when it is misused; and. if for any reason you ever should want to take it apart, the only tool you need is tfee combination wrench and screw-driver furnished with each machine. The NEW De Laval is the simplest cream separator made. A person who has never before . touched a separator can. if neces sary, unassem ble a modern De Laval machine down to the last part within five minutes, and then put it together again within ten minutes. This is something that cannot be done outside a machine shop with any other separator made, and any. separator user who has ever had to wrestle with the complicated mechanism found in other separators will appreciate what it means to him. 1 ' ' Don't fail to stop in and see the NEW De Laval the next time you are in town. Even if you are not in the market for a sepa--rator right new, come in and examine a separator that is said by experts to embody the greatest improvements in cream separator construction in the last thirty years.
