SIMULATED INTEREST
in BREAD MAKING

The art of baking bread seems to be
rapidlv diving out. In recent years the
competition for wheat bread at the Della
ware State Fair has been considerably
stimulated by an increase in thepremiums.
This year the announcement of the gold
medal offered by Mrs. Alfred 1. du Pont
for the best loaf of wheat bread serves to
stimulate the competition in a most re-
markable degree. The first prize offered
by the Fair Association will also be given
to the winner of Mrs. du Points medal,
the latter alone being worth the effort
involved.
Mrs. dupont is choosing a medal most
conservative in character and design,
and the inquiries concerning this compe-
ton readily indicate the very great inter
est that is but forerunner of a display
Of bread, the like of which has never
been known in Delaware.
