A New Loaf of "Bread and Milk" Delicious and Nourishing WARD'S DOUBLE XX MILK BREAD Surpasses the Government Standard for "Milk Bread' FOR years bakers have been making so-called "milk bread." But opinion has differed as to the amount of milk a milk bread should contain. Now a standard has been set up in Washington denning a "milk bread" as one in which one-third of the water ingredient of the dough has been replaced by milk. WARD'S DOUBLE XX MILK BREAD not only complies with the government standard but far surpasses it. For instead of onethird of the liquid ingredient a full one-half is rich, whole milk. The quality and purity of the milk and all other ingredients used in Ward's Double XX Milk Bread are guaranteed by our warranty shown below. WARD BAKING COMPANY
