admirable substitute for Yeast, in making all kinds
OF Butter Cakes, and have the advantage over that
article in making the Batter perfectly light and

Buckwheat and other cakes, when made with
these Powders are less likely to disagree with the
stomach, than those made with Yeast and as il re-.
quircs but few minutes to prepare for baking the
possibility of ever having them sorr is entirely
avoided.
