cheaper than a year ago.

says Miss Northup, "will be the
knowledge that II she does not want
turke, for Christmas she can make
her holiday feast piece de resistance
out Of pork 1oine at the lowest price
prevailing for long time"
"Pork loin makes excellent roasts--
pleasing not alone to the palate. but,
also, to the eye. What could be more
delicious and appetizing than a
savory, juicy roast Of pork garnished
with spicy apples and accompanied
by the colorful, seasonable vegetables.
For the family of moderate size, a
loin of pork is an economical buy,
because it can be obtained in any
quantity desired, and is good servec
hot or cold"
