The Nations Greatest Conserver OF
Foodstuffs
Dear Madam:
Not only from an economic but also
from a scientific standpoint bread from
wheat flour--GARLAND FLOUR--is the best
all around food that nature produces.
It builds bone, delicate nerve tissue
and tough sineW. It makes soft damask
cheeks and steely muscles. It gives
stamina and strength.
Give your family more bread,
rolls, biscuits and things made from
GARLAND FLOUR. Give them the food ele-
ments their bodies need and that GARLAND
FLOUR contains generously in easily
assimilated form. At the sane time
effect a real domestic economy.
