That Is the principal reason why English bread prices are lower today to the consumer than In America. Incidentally the British bread is much poorer than the American. Great Britain' has taken over all j home grown grain, bought at an arid- j trary price, and alt imported wheat ! bought In markets of the world at pre­ vailing prices. This Is turned over to the mills by the government at a price that allows the adulterated war bread loaf of four pounds to sell at 18 cents. The two pound loaf costs 0 cents, and the one pound loaf sells for 5 cents. In milling, however, 14 per cent, move Hour is extracted from the wheat than in America. And there is a com­ pulsory adulteration of 20 per cent, and an allowable adulteration of -50 per cent. Compared with American bread, the British product is only about 05 per cent, pure at Its best, In France, under conditions some­ what similar, but with a larger extrac­ tion, the four >und loaf bells for iff cents, ■ i White Kid Pumps Real White Kid Pumps, with covered Paris heel and light dress sole—just the pump for the ,sweet girl graduate.
