There are many good reasons for this, the first being that she knows exactly what brand of sugar she is getting, and can tell whether or not it is sugar that has been refined in this country under the strict United States sanitary conditions, by Amer ican labor, under the NRA code--or whether it is foreign refined sugar. The cotton bag also keeps the sugar in the same pure, clean state in which it left the refinery. In addition, when she buys sugar in a cotton bag, she is stimulating the consumption of cotton—the crop upon which the prosperity of the a<rricultdral South largely depends. The Savannah Sugar Refinery at Savannah, Ga., (refiners of Dixie Crystals Sugar,) alc'ie uses 10,000,000 yards of cotton cloth a year in pack ing their sugars. Put up plenty of f^iits this sum- . mer for use this winter. The price of canned goods, jellies, etc., has gone up materially in recent months, and it is predicted that their price will go even higher. The more you can this summer, the more you will save cn your food bill next winter.
