THE EVOLUTION OF FLOUR
MANUFACTURE.
Problem of Retention of All Food
Values in Wheat Flour With
Perfect Grinding Solved by
Thomas L. Clark.

In the manufacture of flour, it is
of vital Importance that it possess
the highest nutritive value. Prior
to and until 1880, wheat flour or
corn meal was obtained by simply
crushing the whole grain, with the
result that the bread contained prac-
tically all of the nutritive elements
of the whole grain.
The introduction of the roller-mill
system in the United States in 1873
created revolution in the manufac-
ture of flour inasmuch as the roller
process made it possible to separate
the various parts of the kernel, viz:
the germ or embryo, the bran and
endosperm or starchy part The
latter could then be ground to a verv
fine flour, which on account Of it's
white appearance appealed to the
housewife. But these highly milled
products are often deficient in GER
tain essential accessory food sub
stances, as these are located in the
intact kernel, in the outer layers and
also in the germ.
Speaking of the modern process
of flour manufacture and it's relation
to child feeding, DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley, the renowned pure food ex-
ponent, has the following to say:
"Now, what do we eat of the
wheat as rule? Why, we eat the
proteins, a part of it, and the starch.
And what is it we don't get in the
wheat when we eat it? AS rule we

The Moishen Z'kanim Society will
present a play entitled "The Orphan"
at the Liberty Theater, 9Th avenue
north and Dupont, Saturday evening,
March 18th, at 8 o'clock. The event
promises to be of great interest, as the
play was written and staged by we'll
known Minneapolis woman, and the ac-
tors are also all local talent. The pub
lie will be pleasantly surprised to learn
of the good talent that lay concealed
among us. We predict that the services
of the gifted playwright and troupe will

which they will certainly score, if the
rehearsal is criterion of what the

A picnic supper. with all seated on

Origin of Halloween.
Much superstition attaches to the
origin OF Halloween, which is much
disputed, but the name can be traced
back as far as the ninth century,
when All Saints, the evening before,
was. called All Hallow's eve. Hal
low means holy or sacred and All
Hallows day or All Saints day is a
holy day of the Greek, Roman, An
gelican and Episcopal churches. Pope
Gregory III dedicated church to the
honor of All Saints on Nov. 1 in the
ninth century, and the day was pop
ulsFly called "An Hallow's Day"
hence it became the custom to call
