FIRST IN THE FIELD.

CAVERSHAM BAKER FIGHTS DISEASE. BREAD WRAPPED DIRECT FROM OVEN. In every loaf of bread that I®?*- bakeries in Dunedin one day wnen scientific inspectors decided to make an examination, disease germs of various kinds were found to be thriving. This has made one Dunedin baker think and act. He knew that this was so because every one cf those loaves had been handled by human agencies—some of them, those innocent but dangerous “carriers that have always perplexed the bacteriologist. Such a man in a bakery could make the staff of life the staff of death. ■’My customers must be protected from this menace,” said Mr Fred I‘oster, after the question had been discussed earnestly at the bakers’ conference; and lie promptly resolved to equip his up-to-date Caversham bakery accordingly. It cost a small fortune but the thing was done To-dav Mr Foster has the proud distinction of being the first baker in Australia or New Zealand to possess a machine that takes the bread straight from the oven and automatically wraps and seals it No human band f oiv'hps until (bn hnnw. wife tears off the hygienic, germ-proof wrapper, except when parches are taken from the oven and out into the machine. From now on no loaf, white or brown, will leave V- Fred 1,-I-..,, nq youth road Caversham (’phone 3522), that lias not passed tlmnigii this vvnndmliii machine. Mr Foster imported it direct from America, and his “Hayseen" is similar to that in use at the automatic ba'-ery at the Exhibition The wrapped and sealed loaves, carried all over the city and suburbs by Mr Foster’? comprehensive delivery service, will be the public’s guarantee of health The dust of the road, the perspiring fingers of the busy breadcarter, and the limidred-and-one pernicious influences between the oven and the breadboard will never again make the “staff of life” a mockery. Foster’s bread will be supplied to retailers, as well as delivered to order, direct from the oven. The wrapper will thus nrotcct the housekeeper who prefers to buy her bread from the store from the perilous earelessness of the shopkeeper. Housewives who know that caution keeps the family healthy will demand Foster's PROTECTED bread, with the disease proof, sealed wrapper—and get it. Besides having the first automatic breadsealing and wrapping machine in the Com monwealth or New Zealand. Mr Foster has also installed other germ-fighting machines These include a dough-mixer on-r 'ni-w- Pnr u ~ guarantee of really healthy edibles.—Adv(.
