New
Recipes
If you like to put good food on the table as of
eolirsc you do you like to know and try new ways
' of preparing foods.
Mrs. McLean shows new ways, new recipes at the
Cooking School but she says being a good manager
is just as important - as being a good cook. Saving
time and money eliminating cooking failures and
unnecessary waste. That's kitchen efficiency.
FEDERATION FLO UK. specified by Mrs. McLean,
helps kitchen efficiency, meal economy. It costs no
more than ordinary flour is milled here in our own
valley from select hard wheat - has more food value,
better baking qualities.
Hundreds of Union county women use Federation
exclusively. They know Mrs. McLean's judgement is
good in using it. Get a sack today and use it when
trying these new recipes. We guarantee your satisfaction.
