In the summer it's the various summer pests and dust In the winter It's moisture. The quality of many foods is vitally affected by exposure to moisture and low temperature. Crackers Cereals Macaroni Spaghetti and many others lose their crispness and flavor in the winter moisture while many foods especially fruits are Injured by low temperatures. Take bananas for example Shippers and wholesalers will not allow bananas to be stored in a temperature below 65 degrees be cause below that temperature the banana is affected as if frosted the fruit sugar remains starch and the banana will not ripen The encyclopedia of food says (page 22) "An unripe banana is dietetically the same as eating a raw potato except that the potato is not swallowed in chunks as a child is inclined to. swallow a banana," That your foods may be always at their best that thty may be olean and healthful that we may guard your health as well as your purse that we may be absolutely sure of ample protection of all foods our store temperature is thermostatically controlled.

Peasant superstition, how ever, robbed It of Its original mean ing and surround ed It with the de lightful mystery of ghosts, witches and liob-gohllns thereby adding to the holiday's appeal to public fancy which doubtless accounts (or Its survival. Hallowe'en was the great Autumn festival of the Prulds It was on this night that evil spir its enme back-to earth and roamed about with tho animals. To keep them away, great bonfires were built. From this originated the belief that witches and spirits are abroad at Hallowe'en The Itomans had a festival on about the same date In honor of Pomona. Apples played a big part In this celebration. Our observance of Hal lowe'en Is doubtless a heritage Tram the ancient customs with the more popular ones retained In modern observance of this popular holiday. Ducking For Apples (The oldest Hallowe'en Custom) If the girl who wins the apple steeps with It under her pillow she will dream of her lover. If she eats It while standing before a mirror at midnight, combing her hair, her future hus band will look over her shoulder. She must not however, look around or he will vanish never to return. Fire Of Love (Popular about 1700) In large tub of water cast closely crumpled pieces of paper, each one bearing tne name of a girl present. A very short candle stub floating on a cork Is lighted and placed In the tub The water Is agitated slowly to start the papers tvnd the can dle moving abiut One by one they will burn. The last two un burned slips are taken out. The girls whose names appear thereon wilt never marry. AGAIN! Jacobs' Prize Winner Potatoes Are Here!

It (the sausage) does not compare with Gates and Lydiard sausage but in the emerg ency it will do."
