Will you please read these facts. ..r
The wisdom Of the ages has decided that wheat
is the perfect food. Not corn, not oats. In wheat
alone are all the needed elements supplied in bal
anced form.
But the wheat should be whole.
White flour leaves out very important elements
all the wheat that's not white.
And flour, in the form of bread, is never suhi-
GENTLY cooked. The inside of the loaf never gets
half enough heat to break up the granules Of starch
so the digestive juices get to them. So much
Of the starch-which is 70 per cent Of the wheat
never digests. It's insolube.
That is the reason for Mapl.Flake.
Our wheat is steanl-cooked for six hours; then
cured. Then every berry is faxed thin that the
full heat attacks every atom Then they are toasted
for 30 minutes, at 4OOdegrees
The result is food that's all food. No part goes
to waste No part ferrnents and breeds germs in

We get delicious favor by boiling the wheat
