WHOLEMEAL BREAD.

' Sir.—The bread controversy in the Herald has been to me very interesting. In Saturday's Herald one of the "leading Auckland bakers" says that " there is no question but that those who want vvheafcmeaJ bread c-a.ii have it," but a trifle Lit.er he explains : " I will not* say that the wheatmeal bread supplied is made Rolely of wheatmeal." Most breads not quite white can claim to be whoatmea] to a certain extent, but I would like to know where in Auckland the real 100 ri-T cent. ■ wholemeal* bread—not picbalfl— ' JC obtained. Just one shop, and over; j(, p counter will do fur a start. Appar,.ui}v our health is of lass importance Mian U 10 P r °fi Ls of sausage makers»" who do nob U£e tae superfluous brown bread on aceoa '' na tu l° lu ' appearance it imparl to tne sausage." But the greater oh\ with them was divulged l,v the Wfe, lihigton Master Bakers that •'wheatmeal dld not absorb so much water as whSi e flour, and therefore did pot "o t»o far ,n p aii6age-making." Probably fome agitating " crank " of the future will b3 r x lliull g th , 9 , que&tiou of "the whole-meat sausage." AIU.ES H. Parkkr.
