STALE BREAD SHOULD NOT
BE RETURNED TO BAKERS

restaurants which serve stale bread to
patrons and occasionally there is de-
mand for stale bread for dressing But
a large quantity Of unsold bread is
wasted
This waste in Chickasha is consid-
erable in the course Of year-it is
prodigious In the United States
Mrs. Ashton, pursuant to a request
from the state board, is today asking
local bakers to sign a pledge stating
whether or not the baker accepts re-
Itarr loaves Of bread and whether the
dealers does or does not agree to dis.
continue this practice If the dealer
hecds the warning sent out by the up
pr board he will sell to the dealer
oniy as many loaves as the dealer is
Hing to pay for and will accept the
return Of no unsold goods. The grocer
or otner dealer in his turn. will ask
his patrons to help him to guage the
number Of loaves necessary to supply
ais trade by their method of ordering.
Ultimately it will rest upon the public
to carry this safety plan to success.
