ABAKINa POWDER TRICK.


All kinds of schemes and tricks are re-
sorted to by unprincipled persons to OBJ
tain unfair advantages over their neigh
bors. The latest and most dishonest OF
these that has come to our notice IS one
by which certain manufacturers OF baking
powder have sought to prejudice cons
sumers against the use OF other brands
that have an established reputation as the
best and purest in the market, for the
purpose of introducing their own. Their
method. we are informed, is to heat can
of baking powder of well known brand
over lamp or stove, when, if there is a
gas given off having the odor of ammo,
mia, the powder is condemned as being
made of amonia and unfit for use. The
prejudices of the unsuspecting are thus
excited against the baking powder sub
mitted to the so called test, and the gro>
Ger who has quantity OF 1t on hand suf-
fers a serious loss iE consequence.
II the intelligent consumer will stop a
moment to think, she will readily perceive
that this "test," il successful, proves
nothing but the superiority of the baking
powder tested. The aim of all baking
powder makers is TO produce an article
that shall most readily, under use, give
off its leavening gas. The powder that
does this with moderate heat, at the
same time evolving the largest quantity,
is scientifically the best.
There is probably not an article pre-
pared for food that cannot be manipulate
ed to prove that something is wrong
about it; and when person goes into a
kitchen or before housekeeper who is
not to be presumed to understand chemi-
cal relations, and performs an experts
ment OF even the simplest character, it is
not difficult to impress one that some>
thing awful is the matter. As to baking
powders, we could suggest a dozen tests
that would be as ridiculous in giving a
fair idea OF their relative merits to an I'M
instructed mind as the one here men,

The true domestic value of baking
