ALLISON FLOUR
Made in Schulenburg and by
Schulenburg labor, this cotton
seed flour when mixed in the,
right proportion with wheat
flour or corn % meal will give
bread or cakes a delicious flavor. It is wholesome,
makes bread or cakes more palatable and owing to its
practical freedom from starch, is of great value as a
diabetic food.
Use Allison Flour in bread, biscuits, rolls, ginger and fruit cakes, also
for hot cakes. Twenty per cent of this flour with eighty per cent wheat
flour is sufficient to get satisfactory results, but you can use as much as
thirty per cent. We always will have a supply of fresh Allison Flour on
hand and will sell any quantity.

Chemicals Scarce and Drugs High
Drugs of every description have
materially advanced in price since
the beginning of the war, according
to local druggists. This is especi-
ally true of medicines which are
made of chemicals imported from
Germany and other countries.
One druggist said yesterday that
patent medicines have advanced
from 25 to 30 per cent within the
past year and other drugs have in-
creased from 50 to 500 per cent, a
few items costing as much as two
times their price before the war.
It is common now to see on
the bottle of patent medicines a
label containing the following:
"Advance in retail price necessary
owing to increased cost."
As a lesult of th scarcity of
chemicals, many articles are being
manufactured in this country which
formerly only came troth Germany
