NEW FOOD MOVEMENT
SWEEPING THE COUNTRY

A new food movement is sweeping
the country. For the first time in
history America is acquiring a real
appetite for bread.
Bakers throughout the nation re-
port a demand for bread which ex-
ceeds by far the demand Of previous
years. This has given rise to a gen
eral opinion that 1919 will be a banner
year for bread eating in the United
States.
The war and resultant food re.
strictions awakened the American
public to the extreme importance OF
bread as food. During the conflict
the cry for bread rang out louder
than the heaviest cannon. And, al
though the titanic struggle has
ceased and an era of peace is dawn
ing. a lasting impression of the food
value of bread has been made in the
public mind.
Prominent bakers throughout the
country have asserted that the public
appetite for good wheat bread has
been whetted by the former regula
tons of the Food Administration pre-
venting the making Of the appetizine
and more palatable wheat -four bread
which the nation had been accus-
toned to eating.
AS one baker aptly summarized the
situation. 1--WE never miss good things
until they have gone" Thus it was
with wheat -four bread. Fortunately
the familiar and wholesome white
bread has again returned to our
tables.
Save bread" and other conserva-
ton slogans of the Food Administra-
ton have given way to a new, more
pleasing and more satisfying motto
Eat bread-MORE Brea6."-Adv.
