We were told by one of our progressive fanners one day recently, "My wife asked me to pur chase some other brand of flour aside from the McHenry product because the family eats so much more of the bread made from the 'Early Riser* brand." That rich 'flavor is what gets 'em all and for this reason said farmer could not accommodate his wife, and the family is still using the "Early Riser" brand.
