Hand Milking is on the Way Out Freedom from the tiring and tiresome fob of hand milking twice a day has been gained by thousands of farm families through the use of a modem milking machine. One person can milk up to 20 cows In an hour with a milking machine-- it keeps a good hand milker busy to milk 7 to 9 cows in the same time. This saving of time and labor is important, especially when good farm help is hard to get, but at any time milking is a disliked chore that the family is glad to have taken off their hands. The hours of time saved with a milking machine does mean something in dollars and cents but it means a lot more in making farm life easier and more pleasant. Everybody welcomes the relief from the milking time blues that a milking machine brings. "The modern, practical and economi- cal way to do things is to use machines instead of muscles wherever possible --that is why hand milking is out for dairymen who have experienced the comfort and convenience of a mechani- cal milker. Among the time and labor saving machines your local Massey-Harris - dealer has to offer is the Rite-Way Milker--the modern milker with the natural action. Ask him for particulars about this machine that does so much fo make dairy farming easier and more profitable.
