T. Yoder JOHNSTOWN ELAVA HERE is no machine made in which proper lubrication is more vitally important than it is in a cream separator. A separator that is not properly oiled will turn hard and soon wear out. The old-fashioned method of oiling through a number of little holes with a squirt-can was unsatisfactory for the reason that some users would oil too much and too often, while others would not oil often enough. The NEW De Laval is automatically oiled J You don’t have to fuss around a NEW De Laval with a squirt-can. Simply keep the sight-feed lubri- cator on top filled with oil and the automatic oiling system will see that every gear and bearing in the machine has just the right amount of fresh, clean oil at all times. ! The automatic oiling system saves time and saves trouble, makes the machine run easier and adds years to its life. The De Laval oiling system has been great- ly improved by the addition in the NEW De Laval of an automatically oiled neck bearing and the consequent elimination of the tube that formerly carried oil to this most import- ant part. 5 There has never been a cream separator that embodied so many improvements as the NE De Laval. GBT PLLD LTRICHION a centering bowl with its im- uting device, and the bell nsures operation at the wo of the greatest improve- ever been made in cream tion.
