Show PRODUCTS SHOW It is to be hoped that the housewives of Salt Lake and the visitors in; town for conference week are availing themselves of the opportunity knocking at their door in the form of the Utah Products Show. To ibe sure, to a number of persons the show is merely the delight of trying one delicious sam-plo sam-plo after another and when the round of all the booths has been made there is still left the pleasure pleas-ure of starting at the beginning again to see if a second sample is as good as the 'first. But for the housewife -who wishes to combine knowledge getting with her .pleasure when possible, pos-sible, the products exhibition Is truly a chance which she can in no other -way have, of familiar-(Continued familiar-(Continued on Page 9.) PRODUCTS SHOW (Contiuued from Page 7.) . izlng herself with the various brands of goods which are at her disposal when she makes her purchases for the home. She cannot only see them and have their good points explained to her by the demonstrators who have been drilled In an intimate knowledge of details, but she can tastei and decide for herself her-self which she considers the superior Drand. Last week a little old lady stepped up to one demonstrator and whispered in her ear to ask: "Aren't you giving any samples yet?" Which was her idea of a good time at the show 'but which illustrated the possibilities of the exhibits. The candy booths are sure to be among the most popular and at the Sweet exhibit, featuring the Pink 'Lady brand, a new chewing candy was used as a sampler, called "Sweetheart kisses." They tasted at least that good and perhaps a little more so. Many varieties of chocolates and other candies tempted the passer-by. Not much can be said of rows of tin cans but the exhibits of the canning companies are by no means cast into the shade -by more aristocratic wares. The Utah Canning company, "The Daddy of 'Em All," tells all about its now table syrup which is the first maple syrup to be manufactured manufactur-ed in this part of the country, practically a maple syrup -although a combination of beet sugar and the maple. The Salt Lake Valley Canning company com-pany has a splendid canned string bean to demonstrate dem-onstrate and luscious samples of pitted cherries and other fruits which are put up in cans. The Woods Cross Canning company shows its asparagus, as-paragus, peas and tomatoes, the Parker Canneries samples of peas and tomatoes. Skidoo washing powder chased the dirt all out of the place, vieing with the Lightning cleanser clean-ser to leave everything spick and span Tor the Templeton and the Vienna bakery, both of which have toothsome displays of bread and pastry. The Mutual Creamery company introduces its Maid O' Clover, the maid of butter, and the Nelson Ricks people spread the table with their Banquet ibrand of butter. The Purity Biscuit company makes your mouth water with its plates of chocolate cakes, crackers and other dainties and shows its many kinds of 'boxes all 'bearing the Salt Lake City, Utah, name, the only package goods which so tells the world what our city can do according to the manager of this new concern who says he has thei most modern and well equipped factory of its kind west of Chicago. The Salt Lake Knitting company has a lady all dressed in a knitted bathing suit with 'black striped parasol, ready for a dip in the brine. Is she a live model, you ask. Go see for yourself. She is occasionally offered a cup of tea by the iHewlitt demonstrator who tells about the first crop only being used for her tea and about how all the chaff is removed from the Hewlitt coffee. Sometimes the McDonald candy people offer her a piece of candy or the Miriam Brooks lady will pass a chocolate cream. The Goddard Food products people seem all soured on the world from their exhibit which is mostly vinegar, pickles and sauer kraut with similar sim-ilar things 'but they look mighty good at that. Spaghetti and macaroni to a "queen's taste" are prepared after the regulation Italian style by the Western Macaroni Manufacturing company which make forty-three varieties and just across the way is the Almo 'brand of macaroni products. It all sounds much like the terrible var in Sneider's grocery store, but is certainly a proof of what Utah can do in the" way of manufacture and of canning goods and a visit on two to the products show will do much to convince that to "Buy Utah Made Goods" is to do the right thing and the wise thing. |
