All Evaporated Milk looks alike and tastes
much alike. But there is difference. And the
difference in quality makes vast difference in
the manufacturers cost and his profits. This is
important to you.
The difference is in the richness, for after
purity, richness controls the value of milk
The manufacturer of some other brand may
have told your grocer his brand is as rich as
Van Camps. But is it so?
The evening world., 1908-12-07
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 COM
petition and great temptation to reduce the quail
ity so the wholesale price 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 know
1t is wise to give it to you, SO quality is what
you can depend upon in Van Camps Milk.

In the one performance of "Tosca" that

Caruso is quoted as saying that there
can be no question OF the right of the
conauctor TO direct the singers, and
the question Of MIR. Gatti-Casa2za's an

AS to German Opera.
The question Of abandoning German
opera is said to have been discussed by
The dire ctors, but that can scarcely be
taken seriously. \ large number OF
the subscribers would surely revolt
against that. Besides Gatti- CasaZza

The assertion that italian operas

II is the fact that Caruso sings in the

Not "Condensed Milk"

Oneshould not confuse Van Camps with econ
dcnsed milk" CONDENSED Milk" by weight,
is about half milk and half sugar-the sugar
being used to preserve it. One can't use "con-
densed milk for cooking
Van Camps is nothing but milk-no sugar,
no starch, no preservative. The preserving is
done by sterilization.
Therefore, Van Camps serves every purpose
of raw milk and cream. 1t is the ideal milk for
cooking. 1t gives to milk dishes a richness and
flavor which you never get from raw milk.
Another fact is that Van Camps Milk is
sanitary. Our COWS are inspected; so are the
men who milk them. There is no chance of
infection. Our diaries are sanitary. The
