But GOOD flour, expertly milled in all processes, is not such an easy accomplishment. That's why we stress "Federation" it's an EXTRA GOOD flour, produced only by the most skilled milling and with the utmost care taken to see that its uniform high quality, excellent color, and heavy food value do not vary. It pays to buy "Federation" because it's a Grande Ronde Valley flour and because it satisfies best in the kitchen. It's guaranteed try a sack. Your Grocer Has It!

F!y the side of many a stream in Europe you can see women doing the family wash in that old, back-breaking way. ' They carry heavy bas kets down to the stream soak the clothes and scrub, scrub, scrub on tho bare boards and hard rucks. Contrast that with the average American home whore washing is dono in comparative ease. New labor-saving soaps and compound;! eliminate much of the old scrubbing, even in homes where electricity does not eliminate it all. Wash-day is over in a few short hours. Time for pleasure, for other things. Not only in washing, but in practically every phase of woman's work, new products and in ventions are freeing her from home drudgery and slavery. She has leisure now nnd comforts that the average foreign woman cannot even imagine. To a large measure this has been due to ad vertising. Advertising has familiarized Ameii can women with new inventions. Advertising has made possible the wide distribution of new products. Hy increasing sales, advertising has reduced the price of modern household utilities to the reach of the modest purse. ADVERTISEMENTS ADD NEW EASE TO LIKE. READ Til EM.
