The particular housewife has refusod to consistently buy bakers' cake because it lacked that something, "That Something" was a shortage of eggs, butter and cream. As far as appearances go, Bakers' cake was superior but the flavor was not there. NOW this whole aspeot is changing. Bnkers such as ourselves are using the housewife's own methods and with mass production and superior equipment are making the same cake for less money. Just as surely as Bread Baking was taken out of the home, so will cake baking eventually be taken out of the home. As this idea gains momentum more and more it will be demonstrated that except on very special occasions the housewife can no longer afford to bake at home. TOMORROW we are going to give a practical dem onstration of this changing idea. At your grocer and at our retail store you will find a week end special of an old fashioned Butter Sponge Cocoanut Layer Cake at 19c each with a delicious boiled icing made from a prize win ning Housewife's recipe just as she used it in her own home. Try one of these cakes at this ridioulously low price and toll us whother or not you think we are on the right track. wr.'KVae. o e 01301 OESOl OE301 THE HOME OF BREAD LIKE MOTHER MADE Tomatoes vs. Q Oranges UOTING Dr. William Weston, in an address ' before the National Medical Association convention:. "Oranges and tomatoes are about equal in their Vitamin 0 value but tomatoes have slightly greater source of Vitamin A and Vitamin B than oranges have. This should be reassuring to people who find it dif ficult to get fresh orange juice for the baby for tomato juice is quite as. valuable. Infants can take a larger quantity of tomato juice fresh or canned than of orange juice without manifesting ill effects. Oranges arc less than half as rich in iron as tomatoes." (From Medford Mail Tribune, Jan. 24, 1931). According to this famous physician Tomatoes are simply a better product for less. Rogue River Valley tomatoes are conceded to be the finest in the west. Tomorrow we quote special prices on all tomato products. O BREAD Gaining in sales because of its real home flavor. 1 lb. loaf . . 5C 1 lb. loaf . 7Hc Hot Cross Buns a Lenten treat.
