' PEARL SHORTENING is such n product as the Government suggests, for it is composed largely of vegetable fat. What is more, it is a local product, which means that by its use we also conserve because it relieves railroad congestion and releases cars for other and very nec essary purposes. PEARL SHORTENING meets all youf cooking needs both satisfactorily and economically. It is Government in spected a guarantee of its purity. It is not a hog fat.
