... an extra degree of excellence.
The description may be confus-
ing. But the idea makes great sense.
Because behind every Electrohome
portable color TV is an Electro-
home console color TV chassis.
Same engineered-in-Canada excel-
lence. Same attention to quality.
Same built-in reliability.
And, of course, the same superb
Electrohome color TV performance.
All in a beautifully styled wood-
grain cabinet.
When it comes down to it, there
are really only two things portable
about Electrohome color TV
portables.
The size. And the price. See
for yourself soon.

Why is a Fall application of fertilizer so profitable?
TOP DRESSING HAY AND PASTURE insures winter hard]
ness and hence winter survival of the alfalfa and clover. Th
increased soil fertility level also means extra spring and stmune
growth—higher yields/more feed per acre/more milk per cow,
more gain on beef.
