UNCOMMON BREAD.
Blue Labe! Buttermlk Bread Better
Than ANY Other Kind.

Uncommon. because il is different
because II is better. Uncommon be-
cause every ounce of ingredients used
in its manufacture is the best We can
possibly buy. Uncommon. because IN
its manufacture We look to quality ah-
solutely Uncommon, in that it con-
tains the highest percentage of gluten
possible to get in bread. Blue Label
Buttermilk Bread is better than a
home made bread, because of our SUI
perior facilities, our perfect conditions
our imported ingredients, our blended
-four, our knowing how.
1t is impossible to make better bread
than Blue Label Buttermilk Bread now
is Every process in its manufacture
has been so carefully worked out thai
not a single Improvement can be made
If you have never tried Blue Labe
Buttermilk Bread buy a loaf today
We know 1T will please you. We know
YOU VIII agree with us that it is ths
bast bread YOU have ever eaten. We
know you will even admit that ii Is d
better bread than you yourself car
bake. 1t costs dime a loaf, but it's

rapid strides that have been made by
the corn during the past few weeks.
Much of it is tasseled out. has obtained
great growth. and is showing a good

generally speaking. There is some poor
corn on the extremely low lands. that

that he can scarcely believe his own
