Through these pores in the shell, heat draws

That’s why it’s always important—and parti-
cularly in hot weather—to keep eggs where the
air is cooled and moist. /
It’s the only way to keep eggs FRESH . . .
and they must be fresh to bring the top prices.
So gather them often, cool them quickly, and
KEEP THEM COOL!
Too, if yon will take the time tq CLEAN YOUR
EGGS—it will bring you extra money, because
we pay extra for WASHED EGGS.
We're interested in seeing that you get the
very top prices for your eggs—and other pro-
duce, and we know that this bit of extra time
spent in taking care of those eggs, will enable
us to give you the very top prices!/

all times.
The City of Comanche maintains n dump ground, 2H miles South of
Comanche on the Lake Eanes road; so please see that all trush is
dumped there. . ,
This will help to make our City more beautiful, and n healthier place
in which to live.
