Sl the Champion Cream Saver
ALMOST any separator will do fairly good work when it is
brand new, perfectly adjusted and skimming warm -milk
from freshened cows.
But a separator can't always be new, cows cs n't always be
fresh, nor can you always separate your, milk while it is at 85
or 99 degrees. In other words, your separating is done under
practical conditions, and the sensible thing to do is to get a prac
tical separator.
The NEW De Laval is the most
practical separator you can buy
because it is the only separator that you can defend upon to skim
clean under any and all conditions cdvmilk and' temperature, and
to deliver cream of uniform thickness?
