'0, Every housewife these days is fighting the "battle of the home budget". She •s quite aware that food costs have soared, and was not surprised when the Cost of Living Index at March 1st, last showed food at 244.4 compared with 100 for the base period of 1935-39. The Dairy Farmers of Canada, faced with rising costs like everyone else, are pleased to draw attention to the fact that Dairy Products in the same index stood at 200.1 while other foods in the index were 247.5. The price of Dairy enoducts is not at all out of line with other items in the Cost of Living Index, nor with wages in industry. While milk, butter and cheese stand at 200,1, clothing stands at 196,6 and home furnishings at 199.3. Wages based on hourly rates of pay in Canada stood at 226.8 as of Dec. 1, 1950, according to Department of Labour Statistics. By using more of Nature's Fine Foods °Dairy Foods—the housewife can serve wholesome, nutritious meals and make her food dollar go farther. flUJON • DAIRY FARMERS OF CANADA 409 HURON STREET TORONTO, OM lieteantei TCS gam GI? `crC@ G ree >p 8y Roe Farms Service Dept SO YOUR HOME ON JACK.
