The United States Cream Separator not only
Holds the World’s Record
for Closest Skimming,
but also surpasses in Sanitation, Durability,
Easy Running and Convenience.
When Cream Separators compete under fair conditions, calling for
actual running tests to prove their qualities, the U. S. always wins.
When Cream Separators com pet >and the awards are made because
of a handsomely decorated booth and display, some other separator
wins, usually.
U. S. Money and U. S. Effort go into US. Separator
Value and into nothing else. That is why the U. S.
Cream Separator gives most for the money paid.
Weigh carefully the actual points on which MfS
awards are based and then judge. Some ac- flf'1
counts and claims are grossly misleading, more jj ’X
often because of statements omitted than of
statements made.
Come in for I want to prove that you
cannot find in any other Cream Sep-
arator one half as many features of
real importance. \? ^uijj

MRS. PAUL SEEDIG DIES
after prolonged illness
Palmer Sinderud Passes Away.
Palmer Sinderud, aged fifteen years,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Neal Sinderud,
died at the family home, 2 miles west
of Clifton Wednesday, January 8th,
of influenza-pneumonia.
Funeral services were held Thurs-
day afternoon by Rev. Theo. Lerud at
the Scandinavian Lutheran Church
and Clifton Cemetery where his body
was laid to rest beside his brother
Ole, who died a few months ago at
Wichita, Kansas, of the same disease.
When a mere infant Palmer was
stricken with a severe illness which
affected his spine and nervous system
and rendered him quite helpless and
dependant on those about him. He
had a bright mind, keen intellect and
his sense of humor was highly de-
veloped, so that it was a pleasure for
the family to minister unto him,
Without him there is a vacancy in
the home and our sympathy goes out
to the parents, sister ami two younger
brothers.
As the days go by and his spirit
hovers near, may they realize that it
was best for him and when they see
him again he will be perfect and free
from pain.

felt better than usual, but shortly af-
ter midnight her serious condition

of death relieved her sufferings.
