Snow Drift Lard.
Not many years ajro cotton teed, thought to be a worthies» product,
were wasted. Now, oil prcsncd from seed, experimented witli and im
proved upon, and finally made into Snow Drift I.ard, has given us the
purest and most wholesome fat lor shortening ever discovered. Snow
Drift then is made from pure water-white, odorless, tasteless vegetable
'oil, and a small per cent, of clioicc stcrine to make a solid,
Ik is easy to understand why the vegetable fat is preferable. Pood
cooked frith animal fat absorbs so much grease that It become· un
wholesome and to a great degrt indigestible. Animal fat, bog lards,
are liable to diseases that may be conveyed to man, saturating the
tissues with diseased products, ft is troc the process of making ani
mal fat for commerce usually deprives the product of its poisonous
qualities, but It does not invariably do so, and the thought of nsing
food, even sterilised and naturalised products of disease, is not pleasant.
Snow Drift, the vegetable lard. Is free from this objection, most «asily
assimilated, perfectly pure, digestible and for economy is as desirable
an addition to the human diet as it is possible to imsgine. It Is cheaper
then Urd or bnlter «ml a leas quantity will accompli·* the required re
sult.
Almost every American family fries every day. and because of the
kind of lot used this frying has resulted in many households it dys
pepsia and its inevitable coascqnence*—bad tempers and general en
happiness.
Uuttcr fats easily decompose at a low temperature and ere therefore
Un poorest trying materials. Animal fats, such M lard, are liable to
contamination—both are Indigeatible. There is, however, ■ way to fry
and bake which docs not render the food iadigestibl·, aad that Is with
WeMoa Oil and Snow Drift.
Oo to the Demonstration and allow as expert to pro*· to you the
superior <jnalities of these product», for all 1IAK1NG, FRYING OR
SAT.ADS. There are varions other products <m the market made from
vegetable oil. the "Just aa good" and "same thing" varieties m com
