prices" said Mr.. Poole. There Is no
reason why even small bakers should
not make bread for eight cetns a pound
and big bakers should do still better
That means 10 cent bread and a good
profit for both wholesaler and retailer"
Mr. Poole submitted the following
schedule of costs for a sixty loaf lot in
proof OF his contention:
Fifty pounds of wheat flour. $3.50
One-haf pound of yeast .............. 10

The Horoscope
FRIDAY. JUNE 4.

The horoscope for this day must
be interpreted entirely from the
mutual direction, as there are no lu-
mar transits. II should be very
interesting day with advantages and
benefits from many sources, but
particularly through the offices Of
good friends and powerful ones.
These prospects are for distinction
and elevation in life through their
friendly assiStaGce. In the realm
of domestic. social and affectional
matters, conditions are not so aus
picious as Venus under a square as
pect with Saturn may bring delays
or disappointments. There is some
possibility OF Misrepresentation or
duplicity by means Of letters or
other writings.
Those whose birthday IL is may
EXPECT benefits and favors from
friends. and business will prosper
thereby. In domestic affairs there
may be some disappointments.
Young women will have offers for
marriage. A child born on this day
will have many good friends who
will be Of great benefit. A female
may have a romantic career.
