No matter what anyone may claim, there is ONLY ONE SPEED at which a cream separator should be tufned in order to get all the cream and cream of uni- form thickness.

That ' s the speed plainly indicated on the crank of every separator, ~ of whatever make. Full speed is the only assurance of full capacity and full efficiency.

E v e r y DeLaval now has a Bell Speed-Indicator. The bell warns the operator if the separator is turned too slowly. There can be no mistake about it.

The Bell Speed-Indicator adds nothing to the price but much to the value of the

Separator Come in and examine the ma- ehine and see how the Bell Speed-Indicator works.

Wheels ott a t rack -- th~ Cietrac way-take less power,

Nothing Stops the Cletrac The Cletrac keeps going steadily over marshy land, loose sandy soil or heavy clay, It works on the hillsides, in and out of gullies and hauls heavy loads up steep grades that stop horses and other power units. There's work for the sturdy Cletrac right through the year° :It ditches and terraces--improves your drainage systemand prevents washing during the rainy season.

It keeps busy filling in the marshes and low bottoms or old washouts and gullies. It pulls stumps, hauls big boulders, clears up your unprofitable land and puts more acres under cultivation. The Ctetrac is economical and easy to run. Come in and look this tractor over. See for yourself its sturdy construc- tion. Let us show Zou what it will d0 for l o g on your farm.
