It makes no difference in the annual saving when you buy it. If you buy oh convenient pay ments with a year to pay, as most people do, you will pay through one winter. Waiting until Spring to buy merely puts off protection to health and the opportunity to save on food costs. The very day an electric refrigerator goes to work in your kitchen there need be no more soured milk or wilted lettuce. Leftovers may be kept until convenient to use. You may take advantage of "food specials" of quantity buy ing to cut your food bills. Whatever you buy will be safely kept for days in your electric refrigerator. Consider quality above price when buying an electric refrigerator. Select one adequate to your family needs. A good rule is to provide two cubic feet of refrigerator capacity for each member of your household.
