Realizing the opportunity for hol'
grain products, S. 4. Moore, head
of the Whole Grain Naturefood
Works, opened a milling business in
the rear of boarding house on April
of 1921.
The value of this product was soon
realized and through doctors and food
experts the demand soon became so
great that Mr.. and Mrs. Moore were
compelled to give their entire time to
the business.
At first only the milling business
was started but soon the desire for
real natural whole wheat bread drew
Mrs. Moore into baking. She devel-
oped formulas and processes which are
now being used by many housewives.
PRODUCT WINS FAVOR.
Later, realizing the value of wheat
in the whole grain as cereal, Mr..
Moore began working on processes for
cooking it more readily than could be
done in the ordinary manner, and soon
the present Vacuum Steam Pressure
Promises resulted. 1t is by this process
that Holgrain Brand Wheat, Steamed
Ready to Eat, is winning fame.

The concensus. Of opinion was
both Jones and MacFarlane played
great golf in the playoff; that. In
fact, the new champion did not

him because the Atlanta youth hap

cred an unusual tribute to the new
champion, since Bobby knows no
superior in that line.
But in build and the matter of
previous performances, they are
quite dissimilar. Bobby, short and
