That increased production for this country’s farms ranks high as an Armour ambition, is well understood. Further, that Armour is continually seeking new economies in marketing these products best, is a matter of common knowledge. But Armour has a third aim, which, less well known, is probably greatest of them all. It is not Incumbent that ho} The ideal which Armour is striving to achieve ie ECONOMICAL USE of every Armour product. For no one understands better than Armour that the average Americen income is under $800 a year, of which nearly half (43%) is spent for food, and almost @ quarter (237%) for meats and meat products. Since Armour is not a producer of raw ma- terials, and has no control over production coste, and since the profits of the Armour organization are ap- proximately but three cents on every dollar's worth of busin done (much too little to in any way af- fect pri the one thing Armour can do to re- duce living costs is to Ae the housewife how to use foods BETTER. To this end Armour maintains a large and thor- oughly equipped Domestic Science partment under the direction of Mra. Jean Prescott Adama. This department is at the free service of every woran throughout the United States. The work this Department performs is important. Through lectures before women’s clubs, church societies and other organizations, through classes and demonstrations at Armour Plants and Branch Houses, through epecial newspaper articles and household pages, and through a voluminous correspondence ex- tending into every etate in the Union, the Domestic Science Department has eaved thousands upon thousands of dollara for housekeepers. It has thrown a new light on home economics for a great multitude of users, showing them how to get greater value out of the foods they buy, how to bring meats, packaged fruits, fish, vegetables and every other Armour Product to their tables in the best possible way. That Armour should seek to render this val- uable service is perfectly logical when one considers the broad-gauged policy upon which this great ore Ganization is based. Fullest value and fairest prices! Couldany ideal be higher? Could anything be more important to you? When you have considered this carefully and sped the essential truth contained in ‘t—that your interests are Armour's interests—you will realize why it je important to your own pocketbook and health that you énsis¢ upon Armour foods for your table.
