In inviting the attention of Dairymen and Farmers generally to the Champion Creamer, the proprietor is confident, for many reasons, that it will supply a long f«lt want in the miinufucture of pure, Hweot, clean butter. Among the many points of superiority claimed in tliis (Jroauier over all othur invoutiouH of tho kind, arc ; its siuiplicity, tlio rapidity with which the Cream is raised, the effectual mode of drawing off the seiliment, thus leaving tho Croiini pcrfoutly pure, tlie ease wioh which the Creamer may be cleaned, and last, but not least, its Cheapness. Tho Ciiiamor has been |iut to a thoroughly practical toHt amongst the Farmers of Canada and the United States during the past thieii years, and the result ol' that test has elicited unequalled praise as to its merits. You are asked to read below the selections from the large number of Testimonials in favor of tho Champion Creamer. SireOtionS for ITsiaff— -Strain the Milk into the Creamer and i)lace it in a spring or barrel of water ; the water should be a little above the milk in the Creamer, to prevent tho Cream from drying over. Ice water will raise the cream in four hours ; spring water, from one milking to another, or in ten hours. The Creamer may be used in a well, or by changing the water, in a barrel. Fou Skimming— Place the Creamer on a bench, unscrew the tap (three turns will open it at full head) and when the ream appears in the glass shut off the tap a little ; then when the bottom of tho cream is at the bottom of the glass shut down the tap •utirely. Then change vessels and draw the cream in the same manner. TESTIMONIALS. I Cardinal, Ont., Juno 25th, '83. Mr. J. E. Hicks, Windsm- Mills, P.Q., Sir, — I have used your Chan.UiOn Creamer about ^wo months, having ten of them in daily use, and have pleasure in recommending it as a great improve- ment on the old shiUow pans. It raises all the cream in from ten to twelve hours when the wat»>r is kept at a temperature of 50°, and leaves the milk sweet and good, and suitable for the feeding of calves, and I believe it to be very much better that any Creamer I have hitherto seen, and il a Creamery could be started in this neighbourhood to ti'ko the cream from the farmers, I feel sure that a greatly increased number of cows would be kept, and that the Champion Creamer would be almost universally usee'. Yours truly, W. T. BENSON. Brockville, May 25th, 1883. Mr. J. E. Hicks, Wind8(yr Mills, PQ., Dear Sir, — After using the Champion Crea!ner, and giving them a good test, I am pleased to be able to say that I am satisfied with them in avery way if useil as they should be, and cannot think of giving them up under any consideration. It is a great saving of labor ai d time, also your butter is a good quality. I cannot help but recommend the Champion Creamer to all who are interested in butter making. MRS. T. KILBOKN, Pickering, Ont., May 22nd, '83. Mr. John E. Hicks, Esq., Sir, — This is to certify that I have used the (!hampion Creamer arul find it as represented. I am satisfied it will raise all the cream in from 10 to 12 hours in well water and produce rrrore creanr ; and as to economy in labor-, cleanliness, etc., it far surpu-sses the old system of jians. In reference to r-aising stock, nry opinion is that calves will do better on account of tho milk being sweet. I would recommend it to all farmers keeping a dairv, do not be atraid to give it a trial. JOHN I5AXTER. Government House, 1*. K.I., Dec. r)th, 1882. I do hor'cby certify that the Clianrpion Creamer of Mr, J, K. Hii'kK', of Windsor Mills, Que., is now iu use iir the Goveiir- ment House Dairy, and gives good satis- faction and is a diisired iiirproverrrerrt on the old systematic |)lan of setting milk in pans to raise cream for butter'.

CERTIFICATS. Bond Head, July 6tn, 1883. Having purchased some Champion Creamers from Mr. John E. Hicks, of Windsor Mills, Q., and after a thorough trial I have much plfeasure in recom- mending them to ray fellow farmers as being a first-class article, producing more butter of a better quality, and with very much less labor than the old way of setting milk in pans— the milk also being always sweet is a great advantage in rais- ing calves — fully covering in one season tee cost of Creamers. WI T.I. I AM WRIGHT. Inverness, Q., Fevrier 5, '81. L'an dernier j'ai acheteune Ecremoire Champion. Cette Ecremoire contient le secret de romaner beaucoup de creme de premiere qualite. Messieurs les cultiva- teurs devraient acheter des Ecremoires. NAP. H. LECLERE, Ptre. St. Ferdinand, Q., Aug. 30th, '80. I hereby certify by these presents that a large number of farmers in the Eastern Townships have for the last two years made use of the Champion Creamer, and they inform me that they give entire satisfaction. I do not hesitate to recom- mend them, for I dare believe that all who try them will be well satisfied. J. M. BERNIER, /'nei/. Charlotletown, July 28th, 1882. We, having given the Champion Creamer a fair trial, are in a ])osition to say it is all you have represented it to be and recommend its use to all butter makers. It certainly is far superior to any method yet introduced, as it makes nicer and more butter with much less labor. The milk also retains its sweet- ness, which is a great advantage in many ways. We believe through time that the Champion Creamer will be universally used in preference to the old way, as we can get better sale for our butter. WM. PROWSE, WM. CAMPBELL, M.P.P. Northporl, N.S., Sept. 17th, '81. i desire to express my thorough satis- faction with the Champion Creamer we purcliased of you last si)ring. We are satisfied lliutjwc luvve made more butter and better, with a great deal less labor. Not having a spring near the house I made a rack to hold the two cans and let them down into the well. It works first- rate, does not hurt the water and is very handy. ROBT. McCLOSKEY. C_| Patented Sept. 23rd, 1882. M pi U CD 00 L'ECREMOIRE CHAMPION. Melbourne, Q., Dec. 24th, '80.
