many new articles of food, highly as
similative to the human system and |
vastly economical for the people. have |
been discovered. and by the creation of |
the demand for such articles of pure |
food. labor and capital have also been |
vastly benefited by the distribution of |
these new sources of health and econ. |
omy.
These pure food products extend to
all lines. but no one article has proven
to he of such value to the actual needs
of man as OLEOMARGARINE, which
is the name covering both Olecmargar-
inc and BCTTERINE, given under
regulations of the Internal Revenue
Department of the Government to dis
tinguish such products from butter
made entirely from milk of the COW,
and although the Dairy interests of the
country. acting from entirely mercen-
AIRY motives. have sought to cast an
odium upon the name and product. the
reaction has commenced, and such op-
position is acting like u boomerang up
on its would.be traducers, for the intel
llgcnce of the American people has
manifested itself by accepting OLEO-
MARGARINE with avdity, as evil
dcnced by their consumption during the
past thirteen years of its manufacture
under government supervision, of over
6iT ,000. 900 pounds. and so from hence
forth the word OLEOMARGAR
will be the synonym of all that Is pure
and economical for the needs of the
people on their bread and all purposes
for which butter has been used in the
past.
why is OLEOMARGARlNE ne
cessity?
First-Bccause it Is absolutely pure.

coming rancid and without one ingrc-
dent injurious to the human system

widely indorsed by the medical profcs.

Chicago Board of Health, and others
too numerous TO mention, rs the list Is
growing daily. Can the foregoing be
said of butter. which varies so in quail
ity. and oftcntlmes IL so impure, re-
sultlng from the way II Is handled In
all its stages from the COW to the tub,
and also because Of frequent filthy con-
ditlons Of stables and dairics.
Second-Because the demand for but
ter has far exceeded the supply, as Is
partially evidenced from the large
quantities Of renovated and process
butter" (Which are allowed TO be sold
without government llcense), and which
consist simply of all refuse butter gath
cred together. worked over ana put on
the market oftcntimes rs pure butter,
and the uncleanness of which Is imp0s.
sible to describe. 1t has therefore be-
come an lmp0sslbllity tOproduce enough
pure butter for the needs of the people,
but OLEOMARGARINE has met this
need. It's production being limited only
by the demand.
Third. Because OF It's commercial
value and immense benefit to labor and
capital, farmers ana stOck-raisers.
More than - million dollars are In
vested In its manufacture, giving en-
plOyment to many thousand men, and
it Is estimated that II to 20 million dol.
lars Is invested In the wholesale ana
retail trade, furnishing employment TO
thousands more. The stOck.raisers are
directly benefited by the increase In
the value of n steer ut least 81 by the
Olco oil required and 20 cents addi-
tional value of the hog by the neutral
lard obtained, and rs large quantities
of milk and cream are required In the
manufacture of OLEOM MARGA NE,
thus increasing the price of these com
moditics, the farmers are certainly the
gamers, and only those who are mis-
guided by the Dairy jobbcrs are op-
posed to the manufacture ana sale of
OI.EOMARGARiN 1t IL also q
source OF great revenue To the Govern
ment nearly 10 million dollars having
been received upon the tax of two
cents per pound, ana for the licenses
required from manufacturers, whole
salcrs ana retailers during the thirteen
years under the Federal regulations.
Through the entirely selfish interests
of the Dairy people various State laws
have been passed regulating against
the manufacture, sale and use of
OLEOMARGARINE, but in nearly
all cases such laws have not been fully
sustained by decisions of the Supreme
Court, and as the people have decided
that they will have OLEOMARGAR,
