While many Of the alum baking powders

found iii almost all sections of the country.
Those of largest sale are made in New York
and Ohio. An avoidance of the brands named
by the Ohio and Massachusetts State author-
ties. will not insure against the use Of the oh
jectionablc articles altogether, for the manu-
facturers, when the fact is published that par
ticular brand contains alum, will simply change
the name, and the sale goes on as before.
Large quantities of these goods are also sold in
bulk. by weight, while there are hundreds Of
different brands put up By small dealers in diff
fcrent parts of the country where the public
| analysis is not yet known.

nearly 20 per cent more strength than any 9TH
| er. Is quite as important to consumers as the
| information relating to the alum powders.
The exact determination as to the strength Of

! provides for the examination of manufactured
articles of food, drink, and drugs, and for the
| publication, in the manner already adopted in
| Ohio and Massachusetts, of the names of those
brands found adulterated or injurious to health.
