First Cost Not the ChcapcSt.

The first cost Of an article does not
necessarily determine it's chcapness.
For instance, a sack of "Clifton" flour
may cost you little more than other
so-callcd patent flours, but it will be
cheaper to you in the end. Why? Be-
cause it will not only make more bread
to the sack, but will take less lard and
