Try a Set of these wonderful Cups and you will also equip your shed with them throughout. THE “ FIDELITY ” CUP. TESTIMONIAL i Dear Sirs, With roference to the set of Fidelity Cups you left with me to try out about three months ago, I wish to inform you that I am very pleased with the result and am of the opinion that they will prove a boon to the Dairy Industry. Besides being most sanitary and easy to ctoan, they are fast and clean milkers, very easy on the cows’ teats. You would not know that the cups had been on as the teats are left so soft. Another point I like is the hand milking action of the inflation squeezing at the top first and working down. Also, up to the present the inflations do not show any signs of wear, and so far I have not had to tighten them. I would like you to fit my shed throughout with these cups at your Wishing you every success with the cup. Yours faithfully, (S) A. A. SWAFFIELD, Papatoetoe. ADVANTAGES: 1. No troublesome ring to insert. 2. No ring to harbour bacteria. 3. No crack between inflation and cup case to collect dirt. 4. No metal can touch the cow’s udder. 5. The lip of the inflation does not go out of shape. 6. The circumference of the top of the inflation is slightly smaller to counter-act stretch. 7. The wall of the inflation is thinner at the top and therefore the squeeze is at the top as in hand milking. 8. The inflation cannot pinch the point of the teats and cause sores. 9. The back of the inflation can easily be washed. 10. Washing behind the inflation eliminates bacteria and prolongs the life of the rubber. , 11. The inflation is moulded and has a much longer life than the ordinary inflation. 12. The cup case cannot get dented around the top and allow air to leak in. DAIRY SUPPLIES Ltd.
