USING MOKE TEXAS FLOUR
'I ne Puerto Kican people are eat-
ing more bread with their traditional
rice and beans, judging from sales of
American-grown i wheat fiutir to the
j island whicn reached a nine-year high
j in the last fiscal year and were the
largest since the prosperous days of
ri>2ii, according to the Puerto Ricau
Irade Council.
Mounting wages in the island's su-
gar fields and other industries are
credited with stimulating tne demand
: r wheat flour, the Council says.
Sales to the little U. S- Territory dur-
ir.v the twelve months totalled -158,.
000 barrels, agair. oi 10 percent ov-
the year before, and the island
is-rug u more flour from the States
..lan ail b!ut two foreign countries.
Having a tropical climate, Puerto
Rico is unsuittd for wheat produc-
tion and buys its entire requirements
every year from mainland farms,
inanny in Kansas, Oklahoma, and
J' xas, me report states. Wheat flour
ranks next to rice in popularity in
the diet of the Puerto Rican people,
and the average individual there con-
sumes about 50 lbs. of flour a year.
