PHOSPHATE BAKING POWDERS.

The large amount of inert matter or re-
siduum in both the phosphate and alum pow
ders will be noted. This in the phosphate
powders is largely of lime; in the alum
powders it is chiefly alum. 1t will be graf
flying to the public to observe that the
powder in most general use, the Royal, is
also the purest. In comparing the first two
powders on the list, for instance-the Roy
al and DIR. Price's-the inert matter in
Prices is seen to be about five in seven
more than the former, difference of II
81 per cent, the Royal being purer than
Prices by orrespondiDg figure.
The carbonic or leavening gas produced
by the powders indicates their strength;
and their true value may be ascertained by
considt ring the amount of this gas In con-
nectiOn with their inert matter or residuum
as shown above. The higher the percent
age Of gas and the lower the percentage of
residum the better the baking powder.
These percentages, as found in some of the
most familiar powders, are given as fol-
lows:

There appears to be misunderstanding
among the people as to the necessary mode
of procedure to put the township local
option law into effect. A general reply 20
several correspondents is made herewith.
The bill was signed and became law Sat
urday, March 3. 1t is township local op-
ton pure and simple. and cannot be brought
before the townships al the spring election.
A special election is required, the same as
for filling vacancies in the office OF township
trustees. The procedure consists of pc
tition of 0ne-fourth Of the qualified voters
Of township to the trustees, who can Or
der an election and give the usual fifteen
days, the same as to fill vacancy in trustee
ships, and the election is to be held theIe e
in all respects as in the election of tow n
ship officers. The senate amendment
makes no change in the bill proper, but
simply strikes out the two-mile limit clause.
