200 NEVER SAW A LIVE PIG
And These High School Girls Live In
Kansas City.
The recent statement of a girl
student at the Central High school
at Kansas City, Mo., that she had
never seen a pig was considered rath
er a remarkable admission by the pro
fessors to whom she was reciting. Bui
when a half dozen other young women
confessed that they, too. had never
Been a live pig the professor conclud
ed it was time thit his pupils should
begin to rasp a knowledge of every
day things.
The fact that so many students In
one class were unacquainted with pigs
only through hearsay led an inquisi
tive reporter to see how extensive thf
Ignorance of the pig really was. The
canvass of three Kansas City high
schools revealed the fact that nearly
200 young women, mostly of marriage
able age, had never seen a live mem
ber of the porcine family And this in
Kansas City, the second largest live
stock market in the world.
Or try them yourself. One pack
age of Puffed Wheat, at a cost of ten
cent3, will reveal a new delight.
You will know, for the first time,
how good cereals can be made.
You will see grains that are crisp
and nut-like, puffed to eight times
their natural size.
You will see grains made four times
as porous as bread ready to melt in
the mouth.
You will see grains made digestible
with every starch granule exploded.
And you will see foods that chil
dren like better than any foods you
know.
Puffed Wheat-lOc Puffed Rice-15c
These are the foods invented by Prof. An
derson, and this is his curious process:
The whole wheat or rice kernels are put into
sealed guns. Then the puns are revolved for
"sixty minutes in a heat of 550 degrees.
That fierce heat turns the moisture in the
grain to steam, and the pressure becomes tremendous.
Then the guns arc unsealed, and the steam
explodes. Instantly every starch granule is
blasted into a myriad particles.
The kernels of grain arc expanded eight
times. Yet the coats arc unbroken, the shapes
arc unaltered. We have simply the magnified
grain.
One package will tell you why people de
light in them. Order it now.
