Milk is a consistently pop
ular beverage with all Am
'ericans As a nation, we
drink almost as much as we
did fifteen years ago One
reason for the slight decrease
in consumption has to do
with the post-war popula
ton movement from farm to
city. Farm families always
have consumed more milk
than their city cousins* Con
sumption among the non
farm population has held
mostly steady during the
last decade.
The cream in your coffee
may not be as much or as
heavy as it used to be But
Americans fill this gap by
using substantiol amounts of
milk-cream mixtures, such
as half and half

New Ful-O-Pep Pig Starter is
GUARANTEED PALATABLE
or your money bacn
The, sooner little pigs eat and the more they eat the morg they gain,
Ful-O-Pep Pig Starter, you can expect a pound of gain on only 1.4 to 1.6 lbs. of
feed. That’s why palatability is so important—pigs eat more and make greater
gains at a time when those gains cost you less.
[ Try a bag of new Ful-O-Pep Pig Starter today and see if it isn’t the most
palatable Pig Starter you can buy. If your pigs don’t prefer it, return the unused
portion and we’ll give you your money back,'
