Ham Prices
Are Down
Ham Boiled, Baked (Het or Celd),
Broiled or Fried is one of the most appe
tizing and savory feeds that the market
offers.
The wholesale price of ham is fifteen
te twenty per cent lower than it was six
weeks age.
The U. S. Dept. of Agriculture in an
announcement dated June 19, 1922,in refer
ring te vitamins found in meat said, "Var
ious cuts of meat were tried, and in every
instance perk was found te be relatively
rich in vitamins. Perk tenderloin, fresh
ham, smoked ham, and pressed boiled ham
were tested and the results were much
the same with all of them."
Swift's Premium Hams are always of
a uniform high standard of quality, regard
less of price. A special cure of sugar and
salt, and smoking ever hardwood fires
impart a flavor that has made "Premium"
Ham the world's standard.
Summer time is ham time. Insist en
having "Swift's Premium" -see the blue
identification tag.
