Try The Frontier Want Ads — It Pays ! (Advertisement) Chili Ham Dish A Hearty Main Dish Suggests O. Parkinson Here’s a hearty main dish to cook over the backyard grill or on top the kitchen range one warm evening soon Called chili ham, it is a sdumguliion type of dish re commended to us by Owen Park inson, local salesman of the Mea dow Gold Dairy, for those lazy days when elaborate cooking does n’t appeal.

Buttery bread and crisp relishes will round out the meal.
