There is no article of food more gensr-
ally consumed than wheat -four in its various
forms Of bread and pastry. but chemists by
examination find that by its use, mankind
loses two-thirds of the elements that go to
make up bone and muscle. These vital
elements are the phosphates which are abb
solutely necessary for the maintenance of
health. and which nature has provided in
the wheat grain, but man has removed from
the -four in the process of boiling. 1t was
this fact that suggested the invention of
Prof. Horsford of his preparation as a bak-
ing powder that would add these nutritious
phosphates. and thereby supply the deficiency
in the -four. In place OF the alum, cream
tartar, etc, used in common baking powders,
ne produced an acid phosphate, and thus
makes baking powder which not only
raises the dough, but leaves in the bread the
vital phosphates of which the -four has
been deprived. septl ld&wlm

Magnificent weather greeted the manag-
ers on the opening morning of the twenty
seventh Maine State Fair at Lewiston; but
notwithstanding the good weather the attend
ance upon the Park was far below, in mum
bers, what is has generally been on the first
day. 1t is true that it is preparatory day"
and nothing is quite ready for the public. yet
a fair attendance has generally been present
at the opening day, larger certainly by half,
than was present today. Still, should the
fine weather continue, as we all devotedly
hope it may, there cannot fail to be large
attendance during the week, for the attrac-
tons at hall and Park, in all classes of ex-
hibits are many, and the public want to see
them. At the Park the i.auIhg interest Ii
most surely in the horse classes, there being
IA total of four hundred and twenty-five en-
tries. Indeed SO large is the display in this
department that all the stalls are full, thirt,
cattle stalls are occupied by horses, fifteen
are quartered in private stables outside and
twenty are turned out to grass, or in
accommodations can be arranged for them.

morning. Right here it is worthy of men
