Vlsher, Herbert Hess- lir and Parkinson, CASTORIA Poi Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Yeera the qignatunol Here Is A Practical Way For Housewives To "Get Behind Hoover" HAVE been doing a lot of talking lately--all of us--about this economy tiling. Now, however, Macon county women are over with declaring principles--they want to begin putting them into practice. Of course, the question of bread comes first. Now for bread with most food value, we still, as we have always done, advise The Flour For Bread That Is Food UT then, we wantto help distribute the country's wheat supply more evenly. We want to help eliminate waste--if you call it that.

So we are using--we Americans--more graham flour on alternating days with white bread flour. This plan, it seems, is the ultimate way to utilize the whole kernel and all the wheat, to the most economical advantage. Big flours are specially prepared for just such a plan. Try them and see the good results in nourishment and economy. Sold by all grocers.
