BAILEY, President Edge field, :: :: South Carolina Home Preserving - Made Easy by Using the ECONOMY JAR TTHIS is the only jar on the market that uses no rubber rings. Rubber rings in time becomes porous, decay, leak air, and frequently spoil the con? tents. Instead of a rubber ring the Economy has a pure, everlasting gasket attached to the cap and remains air tight forever. Food packed in these jars re? tain its original color and flavor, so that when an Economy Jar is opened years after, the food is just as fresh and lu cious as the day canned. One of the biggest things about this jar is the mouth, this is a great advantage in pre? serving whole fruit or vegetables. We handle other makes of jars, but we recognize the advantage of the Economy. Drop in and let us show you how this j;ir seals itself. [f you haven't the time or incli? nation to do your own preserving, we have them already put up. Remember our Grocery phone. *v>7. TDonnell a Co.
