It says the Pork Crop’s in and that there is more pork than we've had in years on the y to market. Personally, I am in fa- vor of it even if it does lead all foods as a source of thiamine, and is rich in high-quality pro- tein.

Miss Carbonell only return- ed to this city in August of last year after having served three years in the U. S. Air Force as a Corporal. She ~was | stationed in Cheyenne, Wyom- | | ing and Newburgh.
