For "Jitasys Size.

Salt Lake City, Aug. 1.-THE fate
OF the Scent loaf of bread, an Ameri-
can institution for century, rested
with the National Master Bakers AS.
sociation today, as their convention be-
gan earnest discussion Of a plan to
bake only 10-cent loayes in the future.
Y The 10-cent bread was the keyenote
sounded at today's session of the CON
vention by @. N. Power, of Pueblo, Cal.
THE overhead expense on the jitney
loaf is out of all proportion to the
value Of the article" he said.
tThe interest of the consumer and
producer alike will be better served by
the dime loaf. 1t will be practically
Twice the weight of the present 5-cent
loaf, local standards prevailing. The
baker cannot give the best value in nu-
Itritiye, digestible bread for nickel
THE buyer has right to expct the
same value in two scent loaves as in
one dime loaf"

Before L. Overstreet retired at his

the mosquitoes which had seriously
interfered with the slumbers of him

guaranteed to rid any home of all
these stinging little pests, within 10
minutes, if used according to direc-
tions.
Mr.. Overstreet followed the instruc-

a position to say that the patent appli-
ance is everything that its makers
claim for it. There isn't a mosquito
to be found in the house today, Incl.
