Summary

Description
English:

In the 1870s, Henry Parson Crowell revolutionized the breakfast cereal industry by packaging oatmeal in two pound boxes instead of shipping it in barrels to wholesalers. After registering a trademark in 1877, Quaker Oats was heavily advertised in newspapers and farm reports, and on barns and covered bridges.
