Tell by 
the Color 
Have you ever noticed the color of 
your flour? Is it a dead chalky-white 
or a delicate creamy-white? 
Color in flour is important, for by its 
color you can tell whether your flour 
has been bleached or otherwise chemi¬ 
cally treated. 
The bleaching of flour is similar to 
the artificial coloring of other food pro¬ 
ducts. The best flour for bread, rolls, 
pies and cake is not bleached, but is a 
delicate creamy-white in color. 
Learn to know this wholesome flour 
color. You will always recognize it in 
Pillsbury’s Best, for the color of Pills- 
bury’s Best flour is as Nature 
tended it. 
in- 
Pillsbury’s Best flour is not bleached. 
It never will be bleached. Its beautiful, 
creamy-white color is natural to good, 
clean wheat, carefully and honestly 
milled.

We have grouped on the Children’s 
I’age this week a number of piotures 
which our little folks will like to see. 
Ivet us not make it all work, for that 
makes a dull boy. 1 lay is the oil for 
life’s machinery and we can have some 
of that too. Take the colored boy with 
his melon. The melon is about as large 
of the part he is playing, and isn’t 
grandfather proud of him’/ It is not 
often now that you find an old man who 
can swing a grain cradle. Nearly all 
the harvesting is now done with reapers 
and binders, but many of us can re¬ 
member when all small grainfields were 
cut with the cradle, .‘^winging that heavy

as the boy. but when he gets done with 
it the melon will be out of sight and the 
boy not much larger. It is surely won¬ 
derful how much melon a boy can hold. 
Then take those Illinois children 
shown with their i)ony. That is the way 
they ride to Sunday school—all perched 
on the back of a pony. I knew some gills 
in Vermont who rode a colt to school. 
They would turn him around at the 
tool was hard work and tin; “water hoy" 
was in .gi'eat demand. 
How would you like to drop in and 
have tea with those Ohio children on 
the lawn? I will take mine without 
cream, I think, but we must all be care¬ 
ful to behave ourselves properly, for this 
is a fine occasion and they will want to 
visit us next. 
Then there is that little New .Jersey

schoolhouse, give him a little hit with a 
stick and he would trot back home to 
the barn. Many of our children who 
read this could tell you about horses 
that know as much as some men. 
I'h*'!! what do you think of the little 
fellow who has carried the cool drink 
to grandfather, who has been cradling 
rye ev( r since morning. Isn’t he proud 
girl and her cat, just starting out for a 
walk, and Kitty will go along just as 
a dog follows his master. Our cats at 
home are mostly black, and they chase 
the children about wherever they go. 
Nearly all children are interested in 
cats, and I think we ought to have 
more i)ictures of them. What do you 
say to making the next children’s page 
for November a “i>et” number? Let’s 
have pictures showing what children like 
best in the way of pet stock !
