A TALK ABOUT BUTTER AND EGGS
In buying butter and eggs there are just two things which have
weight with the ocnsumer price and quality. Poor butter and eggs
are expensive at any price. For a good article everybody is willing
to pay a fair price. Our qualities are not merely fair, they are ab
solutely the best.
GIVE OUR BUTTER AND EGGS A TRIAL.
