This is not in any way a reflection upon the millers who supply our flour. They are the finest in the country and ship to us only their highest grade which has been prepared with the greatest of care. In fact, they clean wheat three times before it is ground. But Sanico Bakery takes the additional precaution of screening it again! The interesting machine pictured above is a blending machine into which sack after sack of white flour is poured. It blends them perfectly, fine- ly sifts each speck and then sends it to another sifter before it goes to the dough mixer. The box of residue to the left is ample proof that Sanico Bakery is justified in following such exacting methods. snowy To be highly nutritious, breads and other bakery products must be made from the flour of wheats grown in sev- eral different States . . . scientifically blended. To be pure, bakery products must be made from flour that is scru- pulously clean.
