| Description | Fort Collins Flour Mills, Fort Collins, Colorado, home of Defiance Flour product. Progressing for 71 years in Northern Colorado from 1863 to 1939. When Joe Mason, the first Defiance miller, pioneered in Fort Collins, back in '68, he may not have made flour that was up to our present day standards, but you can bet your bottom dollar that he was making "the best that money could buy." He started us on our way with the reputation of making the highest quality flour available. But Defiance hasn't been satisfied with being the pioneer flour. It has kept progressing. Reaserch chemists have been kept on the job, achieving finally the High Altitude Defiance Flour, a new pioneering job in flour milling. Defiance Flour, milled from High-Altitude Wheat. Our special diastase method of flour milling makes Defiance more economical, saving sugar and shortening; better in every way, and, as always, the finest that money can buy. We wish that we could tell you that this is the limit in flour improvement, but we can't. Our chemists are still working, progressing. They will keep right on improving our product, keeping it always the finest flour money can buy in 1863, 1939 or any other year. |
