FOOD TESTS IN NEW YORK.
Official Analysis Of Baking Powders
Manifestations in Cream
Of Tartar.

Under the direction of the New York
State Board of Health, "a different kinds
of baking powders, embracing all the
brands that could be found for sale in the
State, were submitted to examination and
analysis by Prof. G.. F. Chandler, a men,
ber of the State Board and president of
the New York City Board Of Health, as
sisted by Prof. Edward G.. Love, the well
known United States government chemist.
The official report shows that large
number of the powders examined were
found to contain alum or lime; many of
them to such an extent as to render them
seriously Objectionable for use in the pre-
paration of human food.
Alum was found in 30 samples. This
drug is employed in baking powders to
cheaper their cost. The presence of lime
is attributed to the impure cream of tartar
of commerce used in their manufacture.
Such cream of tartar was also analyzed
and found to contain lime and other i'm
purities; in some samples to the extent of
SO per cent. of their entire weight.
AL the baking powders of the market,
with the single exception of Royal" (not
including the alum and phosphate powders,
which have not the virtue of even an i'm.
pure cream of tartar), are made from the
adultered cream of tartar of commerce,
and consequently contain lime to cores
ponding extent.
The only baking powder yet found by
chemical analysis TO be entirely free from
lime and absolutely pure is the Royal"
This perfect purity results from the exclu-
sive use of cream OF tartar specially re-
fined and prepared by patent processes
which totally remove the tartrate of lime
and other impurities. The cost of this
chemically pure cream of tartar Is much
greater than any other, and on account Of
this greater cost is used in no baking pow
der but the Royal"
Prof. Love, who made the analysis of
baking powders for the New York State
Board Of Health, as well as for the govern
ment, says Of the purity and wholesome
ness of the Royal"
ri find the Royal Baking Powder COM
posed of pure and wholesome ingredients.
1t is cream of tartar powder of high
degree of merit, and does not contain
either alum or phosphates or other injur-
ious substance. E. g. LOVE, Pb. d.
1t is highly satisfactory to the house
keepers of this vicinity, where the Royal
Baking Powder is in general use, that the
investigations by the analysis in Massa-
chusetts. New York, and Ohio, the only
States that have thus far taken action upon
this important subject, agree in chasing it
as the purest and most efficient baking
powder in the market
