“I reckon this would take a lot of beating,” writes a practical dairy farmer, in referring to the RIOH MILKING MACHINE. Mr. E. Winter, of Kaouni, is the gentleman m question. He goes on to say:—“l am using a six-cow plant, and the upkeep for the whole time has been between £9 and £lO. I reckon this would take a lot of boating. The machine milks the cows fast, and strips them out well, right through the season. Compared with hand milking, ive now have no bother with sore teats. I have seen some machines where the cups fall off badly, especially at this time of thd year. We have no trouble in this respect.” Such testimony as this is proof of the Ridd’s real value. “The Watt’s Oil Engine is running like a clock, and it has not given us the slightest trouble,” is ah extract from another letter of appreciation.
