STAR—TUESDAY, MARCH 16, 1915 U.S. GOVT. PAGE 3 DEMANDS UNBLEACHED FLOUR THe U. S. Government is demanding Unbleached Flour. Many of its bids specifically state that the Flour to be fur- nished must be “unbleached” and of ‘‘good color.” Good color means the natural creamy wheat color. It does not mean white. White flour means bleached flour, and bleach- ing means poisonous nitric acid and oxide of nitrogen. Dr. Wiley states emphatically, and he is supported by the most eminent scientists, that in both cases the active principles are violent poisons, and although taken in small quantities, these poisons are present and their constant assimilation is injurious to health. Will you, after this unquestionable testimony, take a chance on bleached flour? HOLLY Is the Flour in Your Home Unbleached? The Unbleached In addition to its injurious effect on the human system, bleached flour costs the consumer more. Insist upon getting flour with the creamy tint and thus avoid the poison that goes with the unnatural white brands. Flour made from good wheat does not need bleaching. White flour can be made from cheap and inferior wheat, because it can be bleached to cover up its impurities. See if your flour bag bears a guarantee that the contents are not bleached. Use HOLLY, THE UNBLEACHED FLOUR-— it comes to you absolutely pure. No fooling with nature’s handiwork.
