figure with the Dold plant, since these
emergencies are at all times OF the year
prepared for. and a large reserve stock
Of all staple cuts of meats and special
ties in the cellar ond ware rooms ready |
to meet these congested conditions. At
rare times Of course il may sometimes be
found necessary to briefly hold off a ship
nent even to a good and regular CUSTOM
IT. but it invariably may be explained in
