All the exasperating work, all the constant worry of taking care of cows—and taking care of them right—will be done for you by an expert dairy farmer if you will just keep in your storeroom a case or several cases of rnation ts,110 If you keep cows you have to milk on Sunday — and other times when you might be off the place. The fifteen Carnation evap- orating plants scattered throughout the Middle and Far West answer the milk question for you. Every day they evaporate, sterilize and hermetically can the fresh milk brought in that morning from the farms. If you keep caws your wife must strain the milk and laboriously wash pails and pans. The Carnation can brings rich, pure, wholesome milk right into your kitchen and dining room. If you keep cows you some- times have too much milk and sometimes not enough. With a case of Carnation on hand none ever spoils, and you always have enough.
