CONFUSION ENDED ON BRAN New Ruling Corrects All Labels To protect the buying public, tho United States Food and Drug Ad ministration has advised that every package of cereal labeled "Bran Btate on the label exactly what it contains. Before this ruling, even part bran products were sometimes mis takenly referred to as "Bran." It was not easy for tho purchaser to distinguish between a cereal that was entirely bran, or all bran with flavoring, and another that was mostly wheat Kellogg's All-Bran is labeled "All-Bran Deliciously Flavored with Malt, Sugar and Salt," a stato- mcnt which describes the product fairly and honestly. ,. Kellogg's All-Bran has won mil lions of friends because it corrects most types of common constipation safely and pleasantly. It furnishes ! generous "bulk" needed to pro mote normal elimination. I However, All-Bran is not a I "cure-all." Certain types of intes ' tinal disorders should be treated only on a physician's advice. I When you buy a bran cereal, for ' the relief of constination. read the j wording on the package. The factset are therel Make sure by asking I ! for Kellogg's All-Bran.
