A WRONG IDEA. Alany people erroneously believe that over-milking is the greatest danger with Milking Alachines. The facts aro that tlio injury was clonk to th i cow bv all previous machines while thp mifk was being drawn, and until Gillies hit on the principle of inletting air alongside the teat all through the milking, it was thought imnossible to overcome this drawback. With tho “L.K.G.” there is no possible chance of injury to the cow during milking or at anv time, even if tho cups are left on indefinitely. AlacEwan and Co.. Ltd, sole agents Fort street. Auckland.
