Why does Great Britain buy
Its oatmeal OF us?

Certainly it seems like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak Of export.
ing oatmeal to Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds of thousands Of cases Of
Quaker Oats to Great Britain and
Europe.
The reason is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally Of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods Of
manufacture 50 that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How well be has succeeded would
be seen at glance at the export re-
ports on Quaker Oats. This brand is
without a rival; Is packed in regular
packages, and in hermetcally sealed
tins for hot climates. 81
