Elder Brinser Declares
Cornmeal Was Made
by a Secret Process
The question of whether S. C. Brin
ser's cornmeal, the standard basis for
countless bowls and fries of mush for
nearly seventy years, was manufac

it. Then, backed by the capital of the

and sells the new product, to the in

sympathy aroused by the fact that
nearly 20,000 poor emigrants, after
having sold their little all to come to
