years of labor and heavy expense, To con-
vert the Oregon mill into firSt-ClaSS Hun
gariam proccsS mill. Mills built on this
system are but few, and they require. a more
elaborate and expensive system of ma
ClIinery than mills built on the common run
of process mills now in operation, and we
claim to manufacture flour equal to the best
mills in the northwest. 1t is claimed that
flour made on this high process will make
nicer, whittier and spongier bread, which will
retain moisture and sweet taste longer than
bread made from -four which is manufac-
tured of the cheap roller process. and it is
proved that this new granuIated, sharp
Hour, which is made on porcelain rollers
instead Of iron ones, will absorb more
water and make considerable more bread to
the barrel than flour made on the cheap
roller process, which makes fiat flour and
heavy bread.
