Whence the Wonderful Bread - Life in Five Roses (e) DO YOU know, Madam, that billowing from the Lake of the Woods clear to the snow -peaked Rockies are the finest wheatlands that ever threw back golden kisses to a smiling sun? Our selection of a birthplace was indeed most judicious, We cannot too fervently congratulate ourselves over being born Canadians, can we? All the infinite resources of dent Nature Nature have concentrated to produce In our own Northwest aper feet food berry. It is the cream of this Manitoba wheat crop, not the skim milk, that maketh FIVE ROSES quality. And Manitoba wheat, owing to climate and soil is the prime cereal of the world. * * * * Just listen to the explanation of Sir James Grant, a real C.M.G.: " The intense winter frost penetrates "deep into the ground. In the spring " when the soil is ploughed, harrowed " and planted, the lower depths are not "greatly disturbed; but in the warm "summer months this cold storage " chamber of nature imparts gentle " moisture to the roots o; the grain, " keeping it cool during the intense heat:' Therein lies the goodness of the only wheat fit for FIVE ROSES. - * ,. * * If you, Mistress Housewife, with your own white hands, were to pick the very cream of this fine wheat, wouldn't it mean perf:r.tflour? 4 Yet, you couldn't be more fastidious than our expert buyers. Just as you wouldn't let Mrs. Brown do your shopping, we watch our own wheat buying and selecting. Wherever the fairest crops are har- vested are one of the 75 FIVE ROSES elevators, sifting the perfect berries. Years of practical knowledge and experience stand behind each buyer, who is well-paid to know where the - rare grains grow. We have the money and the skill to control the very best. Ce.f.ainly your interests are well looked after. so- * * * Believe us, Madam, FIVE ROSES contains only the plump, wholesome, well-filled berries of the spring wheat ; the mellow sun -ripened, transparent berries. All this and more is yours if you will but say " FIVE ROSES " to your grocer: FIVE ROSES bread -life, healthfulness, purity, strength, economy. Read the label, Madam, and be flour -happy at last.
