WARM-UP PERIOD Cuts Engine Wear Ever wotch a football player running up and down the sidelines before going into the game? Or an airplane idling its motors before the hop? They are warming up to get in condition for tough work. A "Caterpillar" Diesel Tractor, too, warms up to condi tion its engine before it starts to work. That's where the gasoline starting engine comes in. It turns the big Diesel engine over as long as necessary before it begins to work under its own power. Thus, werm-up wear is lessened. Longer life results. Ash us ta tell you more about it. DOUGLAS COUNTY Farm Bureau Co-op. Exch. ROSEBURG, OREGON THEM!! S Almost forty years ago. a doctor who was very til invented a compound cereal food with which he hoped lo bring himself back to heartiness and health. This food, which was chiefly composed of whole grain rye and wheat he called Roman Meal, be cause In olden days the ration of a Roman soldier was a pound of wheat and a pound of rye every day. When this doctor had recovered he placed this amazing food on the market and for more than three decades Roman Meal has been famous as a cereal and as an Ingre dient in other foods. Now this delicious cereal has been baked into a new. delight ful, utterly different kind of dark bread . . . ROMAN MEAL BREAD . . . which Is de lighting thousands of people every day. Roman Meal Bread is unique. It gives you EXTRA minerals. EXTRA vitamins, rough age that is mild but efficient, and yet this amazing loaf is low in caloric content. This makes it ideal for Diet, Reducing and Roughage; however, Roman Meal Bread is also a splendid bread for general table use ... so tasly. so tempting, so genuinely good to eat that your very first golden brown slice will make you cry: "This is the dark bread for me!" And you'll be right! Roman Meal Bread IS the dark bread for you and everyone else! However, when you buy Roman Meal Bread, be sure you get the genuine. Others, seeking to cash in on the sensa tional public demand for this loaf, are now wrapping their breads so they look like Roman Meal Bread. Roman Meal Bread cannot be imitated because only one baker in a community is licensed to produce it, so when you buy. look for the Roman sol dier on the band and make sure you get GENUINE ROMAN MEAL BREAD!
