KERNEL of wheat is a perfect fruit, but it is mutilated by the ordinary miller, who takes the part which can be prepared the easiest, bolts it and calls it flour. Unfortunately for the health of the people, he throws away and sifts out the best part— the phosphates and nitrogenous properties. This is robbery of the specific parts most necessary to the prope building of a strong and healthy body. The Lafferty Complete Flour is made on entirely different principles, as it discards only the husk (A) or outside cover, which is utterly indigestible. It saves that which others throw away, he rich and effective phosphates and albuminoids that come from the parts of the kernel marked B and C. This is the choicest part of the grain, What ordinary flour is made of is the starch and gluten (D) inside of this ring of richness. The latter contains the fuel of the kernel. No further argument is necessary to show the value of the Lafferty Complete Flour over all ordinary kinds. It ts made of Blue Ridge Virginia wheat. There is none like it.

IT 1S MADE EXCLUSIVELY OF BLUE RIDCE VIRCINIA WHEAT. It costs twice as much to manufacture as ordinary kinds and yet is sold at only a slight advance. When it is considered that it contains four times the nourishment for brain. nerve and digestion, it is the cheapest flour on earth. Those who keep on eating ordinary starch flour will pauperize the brain, derange the stomach. create dyspepsia. multiply disease, ard run down the vital forces. The Lafferty ‘ Complete Flour” changes all this, Why not use it in place of the mutilated flour, and feed the brain and blood, thereby obtaining PERFECT HEALTH?
