Turkey roasted in a self-basting roaster is food for the gods—and Americans. Is there a Reed Roaster in your kitchen? If not you are wasting food every day in the year. Economic conditions demand con- servation of foods. Open pans and cheap covered roasters waste a big part of every roast. Sometimes the meat is raw on‘the bottom and scorched on the top. Of- ten it dries up the meat, wasting the juice. A Reed Roaster gives you all the .

Mr. Hoover needs the co-operation of every woman in the United States. Make your dinner an economic suc- cess by roasting your turkey in an Acorn Gas Range, using.the Reed Roaster. Then use one of Robeson’s Shur Edge carving sets when carving it. The turkey will be delicious. Knives of Quality We are headquarters for pocket knives.
