COST OF SEPARATOR REPAIRS. Mr. F. Blomquist, proprietor of the Tauranga Dairy Company, writes as follows: — "I have been running the 440gallon Baltic Separator for six months, and cannot speak too highly of it. Itß chief characteristics are sweet running, clean skimming, and durability of the wearing parts. For the six months the machine has not cost me a cent for repairs, even the driving rope and the hood ring are quite good yet, and the machine runs so true that the top and bottom bearings show no sign of wear at all. The machine puts through the 440 gallons per hour quite comfortably. You can make what use you like of this, as I shall certainly recommend everyone to give the Baltic a trial. The machine constantly skims down to .02." For particulars write to J. B. MacEwan and Co., Ltd., Egmont Street, New Plymouth.
