W. French & Co. Ltd., Frenlite House, London, E.3. Mills and Depots: London, Ware, Herts., Birmingham, Manchester Established 1855 Frenlite Flour Mills London J. W. French & Co. Ltd., the Millers of Frenlite Flour, have throughout their long history played a leading part in the scientific development of Flour Milling. Following many years of research work, in conjunction with Agricultural Scientists, they have devised their own system of selecting the right types of home-grown, Canadian and Australian wheats to produce the most satisfactory flour for domestic use. These wheats are cleaned, washed, brushed and matured by a special process, which enables the finest flour to be extracted in an ideal condition for home use. When the wheat is absolutely clean and matured it passes from the Cleaning Department to the Mill proper where ingenious machinery opens up the grain and extracts the flour and a large part of the germ of the wheat. For a great number of years, J. W. French & Co. Ltd. have specialised in producing a fine flour for domestic use with a pleasing naturally creamy-white colour, without the use of any form of chemical bleaching agent. The Frenlite Flour Mills are among the latest scientifically equipped Flour Mills in the country and all operations are made whoily automatic by electrically controlled machines. From the grain to the flour bag the product is untouched by hand. (MANNII 220012 YORKSHIRE PUDDING 4 oz. ‘‘Frenlite’’ Flour Pinch of Salt 1 Egg 4 pint of Milk and Water 2 oz.
