Those who have never eaten this delicious fruit in the cooked form have positively missed one of life’s real treats. The bright red color of the fruit when cooked is most pleasing to the eye, and the flavor will delight even the most critical palate. Truly, Italian prunes are the ideal fruit for canning, for making jams, jellies, pies, cakes and sherbets, or for eating out-of- the-hand, fresh. In addition, fresh prunes are the most healthful item of diet offered by the entire fruit industry. 2 . 15¢ 4Lb.. 29c Grimes Golen Applesi. oo vivivie oo itasio s aisie oo o BB 250 BarleliiBeare: .. ..t doiave st ol tero mash 25 Bl B T . . .. ... e ie s B N 0 Fancy Concord Grapes New York State o) | 2-qt. s o o o basket | pkg. 09 Ya-lb. can 12-qt. basket 25¢ 59¢ Orange Pekoe India Ya-lb. ‘Grandmother’s Brand 23¢ NECTAR TEA BALLS C-E& ,000, which he wants Parliament to vote, nrubuc works which would not be sta: now were it not for the labor pression. ‘The government proposes to assist the provinces in connecting up un- finished portions of the trans-Canada Highway, to build wharves and bridges, to aid the provinces in undertakings of a local nature and to help railroads in whatever work they ean undertake.
