We keep Franklin Granulated Sugar free from dust and all
contamination before it gets to you—this is how you can
continue to keep it so.
Cut the corner of the carton (as shown in the illustration) so
that it is not entirely detached from the box. This will give
you ample opening from which to pour the sugar, and when not
in use the corner drops down and keeps out the dust. I
Remember that Franklin Cane Sugars come in five different
varieties, Granulated, Dainty Lumps, Powdered, Confectioners,
and Old-Fashioned Brown. All are packed in sturdy cartons or
strong cotton bags—all of the highest quality—accurately
weighed, packed and sealed by machine.

FRUIT TREES NOT
HURT BY COLD
Adams County Growers Re
port Belief Recent Low Tem
perature Was Harmless
Gettysburg, Pa., April .1. —So far as
can be seen now the cold weather of
the present week has not hurt the
fruit trees or buds in the great fruit
belt of the county. Reports have been
sent to the offices of the Fruit Grow
ers' Association by many of the grow
ers, all of which confirm the belief
that the fruit is safe. It is possible
that the cherries and plums may be
slightly damaged, but these are mi
nor crops competed to the other
crops. Apples, which are the great
crop of the county, the fruit ranking
among the highest grades of apples
in the state, are believed to be un
hurt. The smokehouse and transpar
ent and a few of the other early va
rieties, have started to bud, but are
not far enough advanced to be in
jured. Peaches also are safe. It is be
lieved that the high winds that ac
companied the cold weather saved
fruit of all kinds.
