with a slightly yellowis. straw coloree
tint, it is a good sign If il is very white
with a blush cast or with black specks in
lit, the -four is not good.

and knead a little Of it between the fin
gers; if it works dry aud elastic It is good
lie il works soft and sticky, it is poor.

be sticky.
3d. Throw little lump Of dry -four
against dry5 smooth, perpendicalar sur
face; if it adhcres n lump, tho -four
has life in it; if it fails like powder ii is
bad.
Ath. Squeeze some of the -four in your
hands if it retains the shape given it BY
the pressure, that too is a good sign.
Flour that will stand al these tests, it is
safe to buy.
