Why Quality is Reduced

Just now the United States laws don't protect
you and your grocer against weak, Evaporated
Milk, because the standard has been relaxed.
The law is not enforced.
There is much competition and great tempta-
ton to reduce the quality the wholesale prices
can be reduced.
Van Camps Milk has not been reduced in
price (your grocer will tell you that and we
positively guarantee you the quality has not
and will not be reduced.
Quality is what you must have and we knew
it is wise to give it to you. So quality is what
you can depend upon in Van Camps Milk.
The Washington times., 1908-11-09
Don't Pay for Water

You can't afford to pay milk price for water.
That is one reason why you should insist on
Van Camps.
Another reason is this: Our COWS are in
spected; so are the men who milk them. Our
dairies are sanitary-cleanliness is carried to
extremes.
In Van Camps every means known to
science is employed to protect you. Do you
know this of other milks2
The Washington times., 1908-11-09

The difference is in the richness, for after
purity, richness controls the value of milk
The difference in quality makes a vast
difference in the manufacturers cost and his
profits. This is important to you.
The manufacturer of some other brand may
have told your grocer his brand is as rich as
Van Camps. But is it so?

Sardou at first studied medicine, but

LON CAMBERN

an old Neosho county boy, having
come to this county with his par
ents when he was but small boy.
He has grown TO manhood among
u and is probably as well known as
aly other man in the county. As a
young man he served as deputy
county treasurer for four consecs.
We terms and was then elected
treasurer and served two terms.
No one ever worried about the
county funds when Lon had charge
of them. BY the way, you have
known. Lon for many years, did you
ever know of a mean or dishonest
act of his2 He has always been
reliable in pubic or private life.
Mr.. Cambern now aspires to the
office of state senator of this dis.

If this district dominates and

will be better represented than this
one.
