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.

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!
