enough to select his own style be encour-

should his waist line be curved in as if he

that the very fashionable young pian ha:,

A GOVERNMENT OR
The following letter from the Food Controller W. J. Hanna, prohibits us from selling large quantities of our regular brands of flour
to one party before the time set for the making of Government Standard Flour.
Of course we will be allowed to sell any quantity of standard flour.
Office of the Food Controller, Ottawa, Janitary 17th, 1918,
To Millers, Wholesale Flour Dealers, Wholesale Grocers, Retail Flour Dealers
and Retail Grocers.
.. ,�
1I 1.1 .i..... I
War needs make it necessary that the establishment of a standard flour and a standard bread be made effective at the earliest pos-
sible date. If there are large stocks of regular grades of flout' in the hands of bakers and retailers it will delay the time of establishing a
standard; therefore, millers. wholesale flour dealers, wholesale grocers, retail four dealers and retail grocers are requested to co-operate
with the Food Controller for Canada in discouraging the hoarding of flour. There is not a shortage of flour in Canada and
hoarding is absolutely unnecessary as well as unpatriotic. The shipment of purchase of large quantities of flour at
this time will be an added buyden to the transportation companies when the movement of food to the seabord and the movement of coal
throughout the Dominion are of vital importance.
Regulations are being issued by this office, requiring millers to make a standard grade of flour. This will not lessen quantity of flour
available for consumption in Canada. A date will be set after which millers must make the standard flour and a date will be set after
which bakers will be required -to sell their bread based on the price of the standard flour. Therefore Bakers who purchase large stocks
- of patent flour may find themselves in an unfortunate position when the Order is issued for the production of bread from standard flour.
- Millers are asked not to sell more than the usual quantities of flour to bakers and wholesale dealers and to advise their customers
not to stock heavily with regular grades of flr,,tr. \V!: •'.'•',i1e dealers are asked not to allow retail dealers to stock heavy with regular
grades of flour and ratan dealers are askc'l nut to ,§.,11 more than one week's supply of Hour to families except when it is impossible for
the customer to secure weekly supplies. In order to obtain the desired result, millers are requested not to require dealers to take certain
quantities of flour tc-hen purchasing other products at the mill. All parties eoncerned can assist in this matter by making statements in
their advertisements as to the inadvisablity of hoarding flour.
Let it be distinctly understood that millers, wholesalers and retailers who do not accede to this request will be promptly dealt with and
the shipment of flout' by or to these persons will be prohibited.
It is expected that this matter will receive your earnest consideration and loyal support.
Yours faithfully,
W. J. FIANNA.
The flour will not be a whole wheat flour as reported but wilt only be 74'% of the wheat, which will make a nice clean white flour pro.
clueing a fine light loaf but perhaps a little darker in color than from our regular brands of flour.
We will still flare as much bran and ;shorts for bale as ever.
