There IS A Difference
From Toronto Globe and Mail September 25, 1954:
"Inferior Cattle Glut Yards”, The rains came too late
to improve grass very much with the result that cattle
on grass have not finished properly and are brought to
market too soon.
EXETER BEEF comes from young cattle that have
been grain fed—just the right finish—the best we can
buy. WE GUARANTEE THE QUALITY.
Wc will have some fine EXETER BEEF this week.
