'. '." -."- . ' I One of the earliest commercial I cooWbooks -and undoubtedly one of the smallest; it measures 3 inches by 1 4 inches appeared in 1909. It. was 1 called simply "Snowdrift Cook' Book" ai.u vuiiiaiiicu aiuvub uv -io. . majority of the book told thehouse-1 wife how to use Snowdrift and how "to measure level." It invited her to senf.her cooking problems to the com pany, where they would be gladly an swered hy experts in cookery. This anniversary year, it's a cook book that .marks the Golden celebra tion for Snowdrift. A handsome took containing more than 225 recipes, the anniversary edition looks like the richealt food pages of women's maga-1 lines. Full-color illustrations are scat-1 tereA throuehout the book and each . section is fully indexed. The book,' although it looks like it is worth far more, is onerea ioy rcne 'wesson vm and Snowdrift Company for 25c plus the word "iSnawdriBt" from the key strip of the can. During the annd versary promotion, each cookbook will carry a 25c coupon redeemable on the purchase of a $3-lb. can of Snowdrift. - Even in its advertising. Wesson Oil and Snowdrift spurns the word "Company; or "Inc." It prefers to be known as "The Wesson Oil and Snow-1 drift People." Probably no phase' describes so accurately the many thou-1 sands of persons who are banded to gether from coast to coast. The crushing mills and the reiinery plants are the heart of this Southern, industry serving all America witn quality foods. Here in Hertford, miMj employees take home approximately $80,000 yearly in wages and salaries. This is the picture of the company m . . . i ' t T ITT J ' m wnwn tne employees oi vie nc- ford Mill fit so capably and closely.
