Gastonia people are now having an
opportunity to test the value ana
palatableneSs of bread made from
cotton seed flour. They have been
reading about this bread for quite a
while but the first seen in GaStonla
was last week when TOdd's Steam

Mr. Todd informs The Gazette that
he has sold quite good deal OF the
new bread and that the demand Tor
il is increasing 1t seems not at all
improbable that cotton seed flour
bread will soon be staple article
on the market.
