Our Object Is This

1t may seem better for US to sell six ounces
for cents than sixteen ounces for 10 cents.
But it isn't Our interest lies in making this
milk economical. 1t should completely dis
place milkmans milk.
Van Camps Milk serves every purpose fully
twice better than raw milk You will use
more of it when you learn these facts and
learn the economical can.
Then the usual milk sold in Scent cans is
often vastly inferior milk.
So we urge you TO buy the lo-cent cans and
get the full worth of your money.
And don't buy from day to day, as you
bought milkman's milk. Buy case at a
time and get the case discount. Then you
will have the best milk in America for less than
poor milk costs
