Do You Like fam !?

This question may be answered in the
affirmative by most persons. especially if
the ham is good. Although hams have
been curind for centuries. the art of get
ting them just right seems as difficult to-
day as ever. In dispensing this toothsome
dainty our aim has been to overcome the
old complaint too salty" which seems
to be the great fault with most hams
This salt feature we have conquered and
this. together with the fact that our meats
are all inspected, has built us up in one
year, trade on meat that is enviable.
