BEEF PORK VEAL LAMB We have read a lot of ids. In our local papers, but the last one reminds me of a little boy who had Just started to school. After he had gone two months he met bis aunt and she asked him how he was getting tlong. "Fine. I know everything about school now." But after thla same boy went to school 10 yean more he met his aunt on the street and she asked him again how he wis getting along He said, "Pine. I surely didn't know u much u I thought I did when X vas In the first grade." The same thing happens to our competitors who tell the people that It only takes three months feeding to make Fancy Beef. We do not agree It takes three months to start the cttle to put on fat not ssylng snythlnj stout th. meat It put on ta that time. If you want to know how long It take, to finish beef for Prim.
